I hated her original show, Rosanne. Now she's back.

And there was much rejoicing. Couldn't have tried a comeback during the Obama era now could she?

ABC's 'Roseanne' to Tackle Trump Era in Sitcom Revival

At Banff, ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey says she isn't certain Roseanne Barr will name the U.S. president, but "she's going to speak very honestly."
Expect comedian Roseanne Barr to tackle Donald Trump and the current reality of ordinary Americans when a revival of her popular family sitcom debuts on ABC mid-season.

ABC Entertainment president Channing Dungey just isn't certain Barr will personally identify the U.S. president. "I don't know whether Roseanne (Barr) will speak about Trump by name. But she's going to speak very honestly," Dungey told the Banff World Media Festival on Monday during a keynote address.

"We're going to be tackling some of the topics that are in the conversation today. I'll leave it that," she added.

..blargh, blargh, blargh......

Yeah, about right...the strange thing is the blue collar working class family they were trying to show in the original show in 1990, would more than likely be Trump folks in 2017.

I see they are going to use the same cast.

I figured they'd portray Dan as being dead and Roseanne having moved in with her lesbian second wife.

Roseanne is a big Trump supporter.

Support for Donald Trump
Despite her generally leftist views, Barr voiced her support for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in a June 2016 The Hollywood Reporter interview. "I think we would be so lucky if Trump won. Because then it wouldn't be Hillary."[85] A July CNN story reported that she did not endorse Trump as she only supports herself for president -- "I will be writing myself in in every election from now until I win."[86]

I'll be $#@!ed...

Lol I thought this would be about Megyn Kelly but I see it is about a host who looks a little different.

That's pretty much how the series ended iirc.

I was just being facetious.

The show got weird. Her Mom turned gay, and Dan was dead. The lesbian lover is the natural progression.

Oh, you mean it followed the script for shows that run out ideas?

Kill a bunch of characters off and turn some of the rest into finooks.

Don't forget they won the lottery, I think they were trying to have a shark jumping contest.

I didn't know that.

We fight for the things all working people need: free education, from pre-school through university; an end to U.S. intervention throughout the world; free health care for all, such as enjoyed by workers in every other industrialized nation in the world; full employment at union wages, with generous paid vacation and other benefits. Workers, both documented and undocumented, have the right to organize, safe working conditions, and paid sick leave. We can pay for these things if the rich are taxed at rates they can well afford.

HA! I love Johnny Carson! He got me into wine.

Every Friday night my parents would let me watch Johnny Carson in bed with them and I would go fix us all a snack and a glass of "stoodie woodie" (chilled Blue Nun). My mom didn't approve (she was worried that I would spill it in their bed) but my dad would tell her to leave me alone. I never spilled any, btw.

If you tried that today, and anybody found out about it, you'd get hauled off to prison.

They would've gone to prison way before that, lol. My second oldest brother fell out of the car when my mom was turning onto our street. I remember my mom fussing at him in the hospital about how he shouldn't have been screwing around in the car. That woman...if you got hurt, she yelled at you. o_O

[fisharmor]

How many facelifts has she gotten at this point?

[angelatc]

Don't forget they won the lottery, I think they were trying to have a shark jumping contest.

But didn't that turn out to be a dream?

In the beginning I liked it because it was relatable. Middle class, overweight, getting laid off, kids that fought....not that sitcoms are genius to begin with, but in the beginning it was more relatable than most. But it got really stupid at the end.

She's also an Israel-firster.

I think it's funny how Sarah Chalke was the replacement Becky for like one season, and she went on to have a better career afterward than everyone else on the show with the possible exception of Goodman.

Goodman has had an outstanding career in the years since, I think.

Why do I always read "fister" when the word is clearly "firster?"
