Members Vee Posted June 5, 2018 Members Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) Sad - and demonstrative of Roseanne's divided nature, caught between the bigotry she's learned and cultivated and who she used to be. Also, I think, a prime example of situational racism you often see with 'nice people.' Behave one way among friends and the 'good' minorities they know, and another in the fever swamp of one's own mind and another among strangers.

Members Gray Bunny Posted June 5, 2018 Members Share Posted June 5, 2018 (edited) Honestly, the way our culture is these days, they could bring her back by the end of next season and barely anyone would bat an eye. (Not literally, but you know what I mean). Everything becomes such an uproar and then dies out as we move on to the next big thing. Hell, if Kathy Griffin had kept a low profile this past year, she'd have been ringing in the new year on CNN this December... It's always crazy watching those "Year In Review" shows they do on ABC in Decembers. So many big headlines come and go, you forget what happened in the last 12 months.

Members You're Soaking in it Posted June 5, 2018 Members Share Posted June 5, 2018 Given the condition of the house in the season finale, I say have her die from complications of mixing opioids with Ambien. Jackie heads downstairs just to check on things, we see her always-comedic face with a look of surprise & a shout-out of "Daaaan, we got a problem!" - and cut to a floating face-down Rosie body double. Cue the new Roseanne-less opening credits, with everyone else celebrating their usual fun family feast. (Darlene's brief, sarcasm laugh at the end.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted June 7, 2018 Members Share Posted June 7, 2018 It’s always sad to hear about the ugliness and abusive behavior that happens behind the scenes of shows and movies you enjoy. I was thinking about people how people facetiously suggested Rosie O’Donnell as a recast, and then you remember all of the monstrous stories about her (“Don’t you lie to me. You know what happens to liars? They get cancer.” Said to a cancer survivor who worked at her magazine). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted June 7, 2018 Members Share Posted June 7, 2018 It really is. With the advent of social media, we get the good, the bad AND the extremely ugly. 😨 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted June 9, 2018 Members Share Posted June 9, 2018 (edited) I love that she's calling her comedy tour "Oh Well." Sums up this country's current mood accurately. Edited June 9, 2018 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
