Deadspin

There is some cautious optimism that Roseanne, cancelled by ABC on Monday, could continue without co-creator and star Roseanne Barr. I hear the show’s producers will be meeting with Disney-ABC executives on Monday to pitch a revamped Roseanne without the title star (and likely the original title too).
Sorry, but, I just see this as a collosal money grab. Doubt it has 1/3 the audience, if it gets off the ground. She was co-producer. Doubt she chokes this down without a fight.

It would have zero viewers.

Rosie O'Donnell is a shoe in.

Sara Gilbert's contribution to the reboot was the gender non conforming dress wearing boy so you can imagine how a Sara Gilbert focused spinoff would go.

I'd rather see a network with balls pick up the show.

Fox will outbid ABC for the show. With the appointed star making a comeback.

Less than a week after its stunning decision to cancel Roseanne [2], ABC is inching closer to a spinoff of TV's No. 1 series. Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that the network is knee-deep in conversations with executive producers including Tom Werner for a new incarnation of the multicamera comedy. Werner's Carsey-Werner banner produced the original series and its revived 10th season, with the veteran executive said to be highly engaged in finding a way to continue the franchise with stars Sara Gilbert (who plays Darlene), John Goodman (Dan) and Laurie Metcalf (Jackie). Sources note that it's likely the entire cast — sans star Roseanne Barr — and creative team, including showrunner Bruce Helford and the same writing staff, and crew would return for whatever the new incarnation is.

Multiple ideas are being discussed, including one focused on Darlene, as Gilbert was the driving force behind the ABC revival.

ABC declined comment.

Sara Gilbert is wetting herself over excitement for this. She truly thinks that people want to watch a show called "Darlene" about her character and her kids.

Sorry Sara you don't get to ride Rosanne's coattails on this one. You might get your show, but you wont get 1/4 the viewers.

I have no problem boycotting if they do start the show with Roseanne.

I saw this idea on twitter but they should just replace Roseanne with Danny DeVito and just never address it.

Mayberry, R.F.D. didn't really work out without Andy. This won't either without Roseanne.
