It's sad when one one-named icon puts another on blast.

Of the cast I feel most sorry for those who hadn't worked a lot since the original show ended. Sometimes it's obvious why, but Lecy Goranson, in the clips I saw, was very good this time around. I hope she gets some work from this and isn't tarnished by Roseanne herself.

 

Like the tweet from Todd Van Der Woof (?) said, I'm surprised ABC cancelled it. Yes, the ratings were falling, and would have continued to do so, but that was from a huge height.

 

They made the right decision though.

I will watch the rest of the episodes (uh.... somewhere) out of love for the rest of the cast and what they accomplished. At some point, not yet.

 

It's just such a waste. Both of the person Roseanne once was, and what the rest of them were trying and I felt, largely succeeding in doing with the new show. I want to buy Sara Gilbert a drink.

CMT, TV Land, Paramount, and Laff have all dropped Roseanne reruns

oops, nvm

I do love the irony of a racist twat having her show cancelled by a woman of color.

Of course, the man is kidding.  Nevertheless, I, for one, would LOVE to see something like this happen.

I wonder if she's dreading having to address this tomorrow on The Talk.

I'll watch but I'm sure it's going to be very, very difficult for her.

So am I (rather, I will record the program and watch it later because I'll be at work then) - and I feel bad that she's been put in an awkward position.

 

Meanwhile, Sara's sister Melissa just posted on FB that for personal reasons, she wants to punch Roseanne in the nose. She says she'd also like to punch Roseanne...somewhere else. 😨

Sara at least has another job and will be fine. I do feel bad for her though because she was really stealing the show as far as I'm concerned.

HALF PINT, NO!!
