Roseanne Domanda

How come when Roseanne made that supposed racist tweet and the mostra got cancelled, everyone detto "no keep the mostra just take her out" but now that the mostra could get picked up again without her, everyone is now saying "no keep her on it's not the same

Why can't they make up their minds?! Honestly IMO, they should continue the mostra without her. I mean it's not fair that the cast and crew should be out of the job all because of her. I mean I know she was the soul focus of the mostra and she created it and stuff but again, why put everyone out of the job because of one person? Honestly, I think they should've played the reboot out as the main stella, star being either Darlene, Becky o DJ raising their own family o in Becky's case, living their own independent life. To me, it just seemed like a dumb sposta to have like everyone be the same relationship wise and just life wise. I mean, Becky still acts like a dumb teenager fighting with her parents, Becky and Darlene still fight like teenagers, Roseanne and Jackie still consider Bev an annoying nuisance, Dan's still doing a mildly to unsuccessful drywall business, Roseanne and Dan are still having money problems (course that does describe today's economy), and Roseanne and Dan still make all the decisions in terms of their kids and their kids' kids. There's like no character development at all except for Darlene and DJ being parents to their kids. I get that their goal was always to portray the family as a real family dealing with real issues but sometimes, I think they try too hard that it's just più depressing to watch then entertaining. I mean I watch sitcoms to be amused, not be reminded of how crappy the economy is. Sorry I'm getting off topic.

Roseanne Risposte

"...supposed racist tweet..."
- It was an explicitly racist tweet. One among many.

I'm not sure who te mean da "everyone". The overwhelming (vocal) response seems to me to have been to cancella the mostra completely. There is another vocal group that argues that the mostra should continue without her. I haven't seen many arguing that the mostra should continue with her still on board. I think this probably all depends on the circles te roll in...

"...why put everyone out of the job because of one person?"
- One of the main issues is that Roseanne Barr probably has intellectual property rights to the show, so would continue to make money on the mostra even if she isn't in it. Unfortunately I haven't found anything online that clears up that issue, but that issue is one that I think a few people are concerned about should the mostra carry on.

As for your thoughts on the direction of the show, I guess that is your opinion. We all watch sitcoms for different reasons, and I guess that is one of the reasons why the Roseanne reboot, and cancellation, has been surrounded so many different, conflicting opinions.

Well actually, it wasn't a racist commento cause for one thing, the woman isn't even black. What people seem to also be forgetting is that Roseanne also compared her to an ape.

Valerie Jarrett has African ancestry. She identifies with that ancestry. No one has forgotten that Roseanne compared her to an ape. That is the main point of racism that people have criticised Roseanne for and it is why she Lost her job. Comparing black people to apes is extremely racist.

Ok maybe I made it out like I personally didn't think the tweet was racist. I meant to say that from what I have heard, the tweet apparently shouldn't be considered racist. I'm sorry for the confusion.
