As Roseanne Sabotages Her Career and Hit Show, Her Co-stars Take Over
In an explosive tweet, comedian Roseanne Barr not only managed to blow up her career, she also took her ongoing feud with co-stars Sara Gilbert and Johnny Galecki to new levels – with the on-screen loves planning to start their own spin-off show without the matriarch.
After comparing a former White House official to an ape in a racist remark, the successful reboot of Roseanne was promptly dropped by Channel Ten and axed by America’s ABC, with the US network calling her post ‘abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values’.
Rumoured to have been at loggerheads with her TV mum, Sara – who plays Darlene – was also quick to distance herself from Roseanne.
‘Roseanne’s recent comments about Valerie Jarrett, and so much more, are abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show. I am disappointed in her actions to say the least,’ she tweeted.
And Sara wasn’t the only co-star to share their disgust, with consulting producer Wanda Sykes quitting the show ahead of it being cancelled, and Emma Kenney – who plays Darlene’s daughter Harris – revealing she was ‘hurt, embarrassed, and disappointed’.
And while Sara has expressed her sadness over the show ‘we believe in, are proud of, and that audiences love’ being cancelled, insiders claim she has already been plotting with her Roseanne co-star Johnny to start their own spin-off show.
