I refused to watch all along and never understood why Sara Gilbert and others chose to be involved knowing that Rosanne was openly racist.

I will never understand what compels people to spew whatever thought enters their head to the whole world...

There's so much hate on social media I just stay away...

I too share Kar's sentiment... I feel for all the cast/crew that now find themselves out of work... many of the people are just regular joes...

Rosanne has now been dropped by her talent agency because of her racist tweet.

maybe they could just say she died during her knee surgery or something

I love the rest of the cast - jackie, darlene, becky, dan, dj etc.

now that is serious. talent agency's hold on to you as long as they think they can make a dime off you. probably means that reruns of the original roseanne is probably going off the air as well.

Wow. I'm really amazed. I loved this show back in the 90s, but have refused to watch because of her political leanings. She's really done it this time. Not only is her show canceled, but her talent agency has dropped her. I'm very encouraged by people standing up against racism. We're not gonna tolerate it anymore. My heart does go out to her cast and crew, though. They're all unemployed through no fault of their own.

They had to know who they were relying on.

I never watched the reboot and actually didn't watch the original more than once or twice.

I was surprised when they rebooted the show, knowing her stance on things. It shows how irresponsible she is that she ruined it for everyone else.

You can think what you want, but you cannot say it no matter who you are, especially not in such a public forum. Rosanne does not have smarts.

They should have written her out. Maybe her knee surgery went bad and she dies on the operating table. Then the rest of the cast wouldn't have to suffer.

Hate filled and hurtful rhetoric is offensive whether it's against POC or not.

Really?

Maybe you should tell to that to Trump...who calls people animals, and countries "S***H****".

Shall we just go ahead and make a list of all the things he has said that are offensive.

Or should we just stick to this discussion. Roseanne Barr used a racial slur against a POC women. And there is no excuse for it.

I was stating a fact that I have not heard of these racist name callings. I am not around anyone that speaks in that manner.

For Trump: he was referring to the MS-13 killers and I tend to agree with him on that one.

I do find the late nite shows over the top and refuse to watch them any longer.
