    That was fast, Roseanne's already "apologized" and is apparently leaving Twitter. She's so fucking senile and that's not an excuse for anything.
    @THEsaragilbert
    Roseanne’s recent comments about Valerie Jarrett, and so much more, are abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show. I am disappointed in her actions to say the least.

    This is incredibly sad and difficult for all of us, as we’ve created a show that we believe in, are proud of, and that audiences love— one that is separate and apart from the opinions and words of one cast member.

    I'm sure Fox would love to pick it up.

    I really liked the Roseanne revival and was looking forward to season 2, but her comments were totally indefensible. She did this to herself. Way to shit on a great legacy.

    Have to wonder if another network will pick up the show and who would still be on board.

    My bet is she starts another show on FOX, playing another, similar character.

    I understand where you're coming from, but in this particular instance, I disagree. It's not like she suddenly became batshit crazy after they rebooted the show. She's got a history of being like this. Anyone who got involved and did their due diligence before agreeing to work on the show KNEW that this was who she was and they made the choice to say "yes, I can work with this." It would be like everyone in the west wing losing their job if Trump were suddenly out. On some small level, I feel bad for other people losing work because someone else fucked up - but if you know you're working for a racist tool in the first place, you know the risk.

    I wonder if they'll try to 2½ Men it and kill her character off? It's a little different when Roseanne is the name of the show, but Charlie Sheen was pretty much just as synonymous with his show and they still (kind of) made it work.

    i think it's important that people are called out for saying outrageous things, i think she was trying to create controversy for attention.

    The difference is that Two And A Half Men was put on hiatus after Charlie Sheen's antics. Roseanne was straight up cancelled. ABC could retool the show if they really wanted to put the effort into it, but it's kind of like trying to repair a ship that's been torpedoed. No matter how much you try to fix it, that ship is going to end up on the bottom of the ocean eventually.

    Anyway, good riddance to her and to the revival.

    Guys, if I wasn't able to separate the art from the artist, I would have half as many films, music, TV shows that I enjoy.

    so ... you enjoy racists as long as you can (somehow) forget that part? i'm not trying to be a douche and i expected plenty of people to even vaguely play devil's advocate, just kind of surprised to see it so soon here.

    But what if the artist is a pile of human garbage and the art was never good in the first place?

    The difference is that her "art" and her personal beliefs became so intertwined by the end that they became inseparable. She literally changed the character she played so that the character would fit in with her own views rather than stay true to how the character was originally played.

    All this over a tweet, I don't even follow this shit but come people who cares who likes who and who hates who. Wow, that is all I can say. Fucking pussies. And yes I have no reference and have NOT even read the tweet and have no idea who it is about. All I cared about was laughing for around 22 mins.
