Disney must be trying to protect the "Planet of the Apes" franchise.

It was hard to imagine any network continuing any show after its star made comments like that. There's politically incorrect and then there's fricking stupid.



This. No care. No faux outrage here.

Regardless of your politics, you have to admit that Rosanne is just flat out wrong. VJ looks like a product of Alvin the chipmunk and the mooselimb bruddahood.

quote:

President Trump called Roseanne Barr, the creator and star of “Roseanne” and an avid supporter of the President, to congratulate her on the revival’s success.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed the call. The New York Times cited a source who said Trump was “enthralled” with “Roseanne’s” “huge” ratings, and the President also thanked Barr for her support.


Gee, I wonder why people are connecting Trump to Roseanne. I'm sure he called every successful new show!

I'm not sure where I get that from.
Her father is a famous BLACK physician and professor. He reminds me a bit of James Earl Jones

So the issue here isn't her comments (I think most agree it was dumb to say), it's the lack of applying the same standards.


Wolfe has a show on Netflix. Why?

Her comment is just an excuse for ABC to do what they've wanted to do for a while. The fact that she supports the President is the real reason the show was cancelled. Unfortunately, she gave them a politically correct reason to end the show.
Silliness. ABC broadcast the show and clearly approved the scripts. The content of the show did not get it cancelled. The foolishness of the star did that

What Roseanne said was true, VJ does look like someone from Planet of the Apes.

Why does it trigger you so bad that Rosanne was heralded as a MAGA hero on this forum by the Trumpkin horde? Hell, this tweet probably makes her even more popular with that element you seem so anxious to impress here.

Not only is she a gd moron, she's a spineless one, because she didn't have the conviction to stand up for what she said.

Again, I thought she was a POS for the San Diego anthem disgrace. Funny how so many who chastise NFL players today probably want to give Roseanne a pass. But I do think her character...a Trump supporting working class woman...was an important one to have on network TV.

And all she did was frick it up.

Someone may have incorrectly told you otherwise, but being deliberately obtuse isn’t a good look. Even for you.

Thanks for clarifying. There was probably at least one person on here who thought they should be forced to put the show on the air.
