Man, today has been a crazy day. ABC's top-rated sitcom just left the schedule. That's a pretty big vacuum for them, but understandable given the bad PR.

That won't happen. Roseanne got cancelled specifically because of her tweet, Fox won't touch her anyway.

Didnt think it would be canceled so fast. Also sorta surprised about Rick leaving, but I havent watched the show in a long time anyways. It had such horrible pacing for so long I couldnt really take 5 hours for like 10 actual minutes of content >_>

Despite not watching the reboot I'm honestly kinda saddened by this. I liked the original (I actually watched TV then, I don't now), I liked the idea of a mainstream sitcom having a clear moderate conservative view since the opposite is much more common.

But that tweet was pretty awful. Hard to blame some people not wanting to work on the show after that. It sucks.

It's unfortunate because the plan was to move away from politics in the next season by a large amount, and go back to the format they used in the early 90s. Roseanne was a trendsetting show back in the day; it definitely didn't lose any of its cultural impact either as critics were shown. It's tough because I generally like the cast of the show. They're generally very entertaining people who don't deserve to have the show cancelled because the lead can't control her political rhetoric. There's absolutely no defending this though. It's PR suicide to continue on with an actress that can't put her politics aside, at least when it comes to brutal remarks like this.

I mean this wasn't the first time with Roseanne's twitter feed, ABC just finally had enough and accepted the fact that she will not change and she will continually do this shit over and over again so they pulled the plug this time.

You're allowed to not like political figures like Valerie Jarrett, but you don't go after their ancestry or their appearance. Aside from being bad form, it's not funny. Where's Mark Russell when you need him?

I love how Roseanne tweeted an apology for her bad tweet, but now that she's been fired she's retweeting a bunch of defenses of the tweet. it seems like her apology may not have been sincere

So this explains why Ambien (a sleep medication) was trending on Twitter in the US right now. Find it a bit weird to see Ambien trending on Twitter.

It's the exact same thing. Liberals make crude jokes about Donald Trump's physical appearance all the time.

So saying "Valerie Jaret looks like she's from planet of the apes" is unacceptable, but saying "Trump looks like he's from a bag of cheetos" is acceptable... why exactly?
