Members StepBack Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 Good riddance. I enjoyed the second episode, but it started to go downhill. No point giving Roseanne an outlet for such hate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members vetsoapfan Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 (edited) Is Bill Mitchell's raging idiocy by nature or design? Pretending not to understand the crux of Barr's insult only shames Mitchell as well. It's like if he saw a Westboro Baptist church sign which proclaimed, "F*ggots Burn!" and then dismissed its vulgarity by saying, "Well, you DO light cigarettes with a flame, don't you? Where is the hate speech in acknowledging some people smoke?" Come on, Bill. If you are really that obtuse, of course I pity you, but methinks the lady doth protest too much.

Members I Am A Swede Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 I'm pleasantly surprised that ABC was so quick with their response. After everything that's happened since Trump moved into the White House and the direction society in general seems to have taken I have to admit I wasn't completely sure they would actually cancel her show. For once sanity and decency got the upper hand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 (edited) Is she in jail? No. She was free to say it and now she's free to pay the nonlegal consequences. ETA: Although frankly, I wish George Soros would/could sue her. Accusing him of being a Nazi, selling out Jews and stealing their property, when he was a 13 year old Jewish boy surviving an occupation should be actionable.

Members amybrickwallace Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 I checked the listings on my TV. Apparently, the DirecTV here in Cleveland hasn't updated tonight's schedule. WEWS Channel 5, Cleveland's ABC affiliate, still has Roseanne listed for tonight at 8 PM. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 This Vox article goes on to name the list of shows that dealt with the issues surrounding politics and class and the irony of The Middle, which wasn't nearly as heralded as the Roseanne reboot yet, according to Vox, tackled these issues even better than Roseanne did in the rebooted version of the show. Roseanne was canceled. It isn’t the only sitcom tackling politics and the working class. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 29, 2018 Author Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 Wow even LAFF is pulling reruns of the original 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 I'll have to tune in as well. It is a shame the show was canceled. I agree with my friend Tim in that they should've continued it without her and renamed it The Connors. I've got to give ABC credit though for canceling it and forgetting about how their ratings will go down the tubes again without Roseanne…LOL They were still #1 in the ratings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 29, 2018 Author Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 From what's being said, Roseanne owns part of the show, so they won't continue it without her. Can't see her agreeing to that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted May 29, 2018 Members Share Posted May 29, 2018 I feel bad for the cast and crew who are now out of a job. I'm going to miss seeing the rest of the Connors on TV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
