ABC cancels ‘Roseanne’ after Roseanne Barr’s Racist Remark
Roseanne Barr, shoots off her mouth on twitter.
The show started with big ratings for ABC who says, “Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show,” ABC said.
Barr took to twitter earlier and apologized and said she was “now leaving Twitter.”
One of the show’s consulting producers, Wanda Sykes, said she’s done with the show. “I will not be returning to @RoseanneOnABC,” Sykes tweeted.
Sara Gilbert, who plays Barr’s daughter on the show, tweeted that Barr’s comments are “abhorrent and do not reflect the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show.”
