Forums - Movies & TV - Roseanne got cancelled

Only happened because she is conservative and the joke was on an Obama Member. Joy Behar is still on the air.

Same ones mad at Roseanne losing her show are the ones who were mad at Michelle Wolfe.

While you can assume what she meant, the fact of the matter is at best she said it indirectly. Muslim Brotherhood is quite clear, but Planet of the Apes isn't. If you know about the franchise, it's about apes vs humans. Everybody jumped to the same conclusion instantly though. Now I'm not saying that what she said was ok, or that she couldn't be indirectly referring to the ape part of the franchise, but it just goes to show how indirect you can be when speaking and have it turned into whatever people want it to mean.

While she does say some outlandish stuff, she had to know how people would take this in general and how the SJW's and media would aggressively react. Assuming her career would be completely unaffected seems unlikely. I wonder if she or the cast was having problems with ABC and wanted out but couldn't, so she sabotaged herself to do so. Last Man Standing was sold off to Fox by ABC, so it wouldn't be a shock to see the same thing happen here.

Are you suggesting everyone else is racist for assuming she meant to imply the apes and maybe she intended how rugged the humans look? Because that's kind of a funny way to think of it that I hadn't considered. Still, what she was implying is quite clear



Racism is bad for your wallet, mkay.

Gotta love the new world.



Freedom of speech comes with consequences. Good anyways, the show was boring.

PC nonsense of the modern world has killed off Roseanne Reboot. You can not have an opinion that the PC crusaders disagree with on social media. On social media you basically have to tell people what they want to hear and give off the vibe of all sunshine and rainbows.

Nope ABC and Disney both have strict policies, and it was only a matter of time before they said enough is enough. Disney don't even allow smoking in their films and theme parks, do you think they'll allow racism? Roseanne's bigotry did this to her self.



They couldn't find another heavy woman who'd do anything for money in America?

Roseanne's stupidty and vulgarity killed off the Roseanne reboot. It was bound to happen sooner or later, she is completely reckless on twitter. I'm assuming she was already on thin ice for her behavior and Monday's tweet was the last straw. 



OMG now Roseanne is on twitter blaming her reckless tweet on Ambien. Really?
