DifferentialEquation 07/06/18 6:25:03 PM #21:	The people who bitched about Roseanne are clueless. Roseanne has tackled race relations in the past and it wasn't a problem. There was the one episode where DJ was reluctant to kiss a black girl in his school play (and that girl ended up being his wife in the new series). It was a good episode about DJ, Dan and Roseanne confronting their own prejudiced feelings. This is another case of SJWs desperately looking for something to bitch about. --- There's no business to be taxed. <cite>DifferentialEquation posted [p:904614163] in Now that t...

Bumjuice001 07/06/18 6:27:36 PM #24:	It was unprofessional. Im sure if I made a similar comment at work Id get in big trouble as well. As with her, she is the face of her show. It was a dumb mistake, but clearly understandable as to why the network had to let her go. Its not so much that weve become soft and overly sensitive, but any racial remarks no matter how light just arent a good look for business. --- If you can take a ****, you can probably take a joke <cite>Bumjuice001 posted [p:904614307] in Now that t...

PowerMang 07/06/18 6:31:41 PM #25:	Did people forget about her Susan Rice comment too? Honestly I think she's just losing it mentally. Anyway, it was justified. Such a shame because I liked her, I liked the show and this new season too. I really don't want there to be new show but if there is. A spin-off called Darlene would probably be okay. Just set it in a place as far away from the Connor household as possible.
