According to AP, the new show will air 10 episodes and will be titled “The Conners.” The network cancelled “Roseanne” in May following questionable comments made by the sitcom star, including comments about former Obama advisor Valerie Jarret. – more
Good luck with that.
Meanwhile Peter Fonda’s movie continues on schedule. I can’t wait to not watch The Connors. I just wish I could not watch it more than once.
I have got to get my hands on a Prog playbook !
Do they switch outrage every week, like launch codes?
The whole point of the show was Roseanne and her smart mouth.
Same mouth that got her in trouble.
This will be like Last Man Standing, without Tim.
I’m beginning to see a pattern.
“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.”- H.L.Mencken
I have never been a fan of Roseanne, never saw her first show. ABC cancelled her comeback show, not to replace it without Roseanne. I still won’t watch, but, I predict the show will be DOA. ABC is run by a “gaggle” of dunderheads. Pardon me for not knowing the correct term for a group of dunderheads. Flounder, Disney, flounder. I pity poor old Walt.
Fukin Commie cowards!
According to one source, Barr sparked widespread anger with a tweet… among the perpetually outraged, pearl-clutching grievance mongers, i.e., about 10% of the population (fixed it for them).
Nobody will watch this. Mean while her piece of shit ex husband says he’s teaming up with Michael Cohen to bring Trump down.

It will be interesting to see whether they go hard right in order to try to allow for a lack of Roseanne. If they don’t, or go left as ABC show are programmed to do the show could be the biggest failure of the season. Hell, if they do go right the SJW’s and progs out there will demand the show be cancelled. This could cause a clean out in the ABC boardroom.
If Michael Cohen needs Tom Arnold as his partner on this he must not have much of a case.

How’s Cohen releasing any info if he’s under indictment?
The chick who plays Darlene (Sara Gilbert) thinks she can carry the show. I predict this will be a big flop.
Will ‘F*ck Roseanne’ be the catch phrase of the show?
Barr is laughing all the way to da bank, and she doesn’t even have to show up on set!
I saw two episodes of the reboot. It pretty much sucked with Barr. I only can imagine the exponential suckiness of it without her.
While we’re at it let’s reboot Archie Bunker, but without Archie Bunker. Call the show “Meathead” and see how well that does.
ABC = a ship without a rudder.
It’s alright with me, I don’t watch the boobtube.
I watched old Roseanne when I’d stumble across it.
Not a fan of Barr, I really like John Goodman.
Good luck with that.
It will be a liberal darling of a show; once they toe the line and start bashing Mr. Trump
Have the goobers running this TV network considered that the only reason people were watching Rosanne’s show was Roseanne herself?
Her show’s demographic is blue-collar conservatives. Removing her for BS political correctness is just the same old big “F*CK YOU” to the very people they expect to return for this new sanitized show.
As the saying goes, this is how you got Trump…
This is another leftist bait and switch. The spinoff will be nothing but themes glorifying the left’s agenda. The ratings will be proped up. Not watching the con, “The Conners”.
Episode 1. Dan Conner pinches a loaf after catching Darlene blowing a homeless Peter Fonda behind a dumpster at Walmart. Hilarity ensues.
Tom Arnold was her penniless coke connection. This will be a total bust,, Sarah Gilbert? No one watches “The Talk”, why would they watch this?
Sure doesn’t say much for the other cast members who immediately turned their backs on Roseanne. The same Roseanne who gave them jobs and made them millionaires and stars. I rarely watched the original show and am proud now I didn’t jump on the bandwagon for the reboot. What do you think the odds are I’ll watch the Lib PC reboot?
Some shows would improve without the main star
– Kimmel’s snoozarama
– Colbert’s dreadful hour
But not the Roseanne Show
This, too, shall tank.
Giving five for three odds (5/3) that it implodes and never sees a second season.
Any takers?
They already have the daughter played by a bitter lesbian and a grandson cross dresser.
Having the evil sister and her nasty woman shirt and pink pussy hat won’t hack it.
They supposedly killed off Dan (Goodman) in the original so he shouldn’t be there.
I really would like to give better odds, but the asshat liberals might try a keep it going without any viewership.
Okay, okay, straight up, I’ll give even odds…
Takers?
Didn’t think so…
Won’t watch.
Michael Cohen has denied the story. Said it was a chance meeting in a lobby and Arnold asked for a selfie. Tom Arnold is a druggie and batsh*t crazy.
