Poll of the Day > Roseanne Spin Off is a GO as she AGREED to stay away FOREVER from the show!!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

The Potential Roseanne spin off is officially a go ahead soon as the big whale herself, Roseanne has agreed to forgo any creative finances just so her cast mates and crew can continue on without her as the embattled star will walk away from the show!!

ABC and producer Casey-Werner have insisted she will not be involved creatively or financially in a spin off as the revival was cut short and cancelled by Channing Dungey after Roseanne fired off a storm when she made a racist tweet against former Obama advisor Valerie Jarrett and called her an APE!!

The next step is now negotiating the "pay away" to pay her off to make her go away for good as the spin off will just revolve around the Connor family including Laurie Metcalfe, Sara Gilbert and John Goodman who have agreed to move on.

If she signs off and if ABC picks it up for next year that would centre around Darlene, the show will continue and is expected to receive the same per episode compensation as previously negotiated.

Sara was the executive producer who was the driving force to bringing back t he show and now to move on with a spin off which would save jobs and writers of the cast who have all agreed to do so.

Getting a successful spin off would be a boon for ABC who is on hook to pay the entire cast for the 2018-2019 season regardless of the cancellation

Channing pulled the plug on Roseanne finally as her bizarre right-wing outbursts on twitter have put a stain on the show and now she will freely be able to do so as she will continue her tirade against the left and stuffing her face with chicken wings

The Conservative viewers however are outraged that the cast and crew agreed to continue the show without her and REFUSED to watch if she is not back..

Do you think Roseanne's co-stars are "traitors" for continuing the show without her?

Whoever was 'offended' by a stupid joke belongs abandoned in a forest. I doubt the show will go anywhere without the full cast and I couldn't care less.

-I always thought Roseanne was the weakest part of Roseanne, so I approve of this.

-I don't see why the remaining cast should show any solidarity with a person who jeopardized their jobs by bringing about this risky compromise.

I would't consider them traitors. Despite whatever relationship these co-stars had/have with each other in and outside of work, at the end of the day this is their job and I can understand them putting their livelihood ahead of a co-star especially if said co-star put their livelihood at risk.

It's one thing to purposely backstab a fellow co-star if that person did no wrong. It's another thing to distance themselves from said co-star if that person started a fire that potentially coulda burned everything down.

Which is funny because she was also a co-writer. That is a big reason why she was the center of the show. She was the person with all the quippy one-liners.

-I don't see why the remaining cast should show any solidarity with a person who jeopardized their jobs by bringing about this risky compromise.

I agree that they dont need to show solidarity with something they vehemently disagree upon. The thing is nobody batted an eye when Roseanne did the same thing in 1993, not was she given a slap on the wrist for her actions back then. I am not saying what Roseanne did was right - its not and she deserves the cancellation. But to go as far as to ensure she makes no income from a spin off is going a little too far and is ridiculous. Personally I dont think the spin off will do well, then again I was not a fan of the original either.

Good outcome

This is just stupid. Oh well, I guess fans might see it as better than nothing.

No. I may watch it now that her shrill, hick ass is gone.

Usually the central person of an ensemble cast is, but they also tend to be needed to make that ensemble work.

I liked the idea of replacing her with Danny Devito and continuing as though nothing had changed.

Super racism? GTFO. You DO know how comedians work right? Clueless people like you don't belong online anymore. You're ruining it for everyone.

various people had been pitching their shows to get picked up by abc over social media and abc decides "Nah Let's just retool roseanne to not have roseanne"

The choice between "thing that's very similar to something people already like" and "new thing that people might like" is fairly easy, unless the spinoff is too creatively bankrupt to be at all enjoyable.

there's a high chance this will fail...nobody's gonna watch a watered down roseanne that doesn't even have roseanne anymore

that's like making a home improvement sequel series that doesn't have tim allen

Most pilots never get off the ground on broadcast TV. Putting a product like Roseanne out there is always going to be a safer bet than an entirely new show, even if Roseanne herself isn't on the show.

yeah no...this show is gonna go up in flames so fast ABC's gonna be breaking down the door just to put out the fire

and if abc disagrees then maybe they shouldn't have canned it in the first place racist tweet or not

if the solution is just a crappier version of roseanne then you aren't thinking hard enough

the people that did laugh are racists

because it was a super racist thing she said

go be racist at the north pole

The solution is viewers, which this show will get as opposed to a brand new pilot that doesn't come with a built in viewerbase. Viewers = ad money. How is this difficult for you?

I watched every episode of the original, I watched every episode of the revival, Ill likely watch every episode of this series too

It was a great show, regardless of anybodys opinions on anybody of any race

On the contrary, those who laugh have a sense of humor. If you have a problem with it, it's more your fault than anyone else's. This is why I said such people need to stay away from the internet. SJW's are the single biggest source of BS.

because you are just assuming as many people will come flocking to a spin off as they did to the Roseanne return...

instead of salvaging a show that had been canned by another network or anything that's not been tainted by Roseanne's image

they decide to spin off the show and pretend Roseanne never existed

Uhhh no. I'm assuming that a large part of it's built in fanbase that have latched on to this show not even months ago will still watch the show without Roseanne. No, it likely won't be everyone but it's still a bigger guarantee than a show that hasn't proven yourself.

And reviving a dying show from another network is something you literally just brought up so nice moving the goalposts but you should know cross-network revivals like Brooklyn 99 are not the norm in the TV industry. The show was cancelled with less than 2 million people watching it's episodes. That's how it is for most shows that get revived. Almost no one is watching them so it's up to the network to believe in a small, dedicated fanbase as opposed to the sure thing that is the generic television viewer.

Roseanne (season 10) premiered with almost 20 million people and averaged at least 10 million people for the rest of that season. If even HALF of the people that watched that season watch the show without her, it's still a bigger success than what shows like Brooklyn 99 pull and that's just facts. Heck, it's at least twice as popular off the bat.

I can pull the same example with a revived show like Expanse considering they've only had more than a million people watching their show at once only one time in it's entire lifespan. I know you're just going to disregard this and move the goalposts again but ratings are #1 in TV and Roseanne (sans Roseanne) will bring those for sure. Untested shows or shows that were already cancelled due to ratings will not.

They should've canceled it like planned, a spinoff of Roseanne won't be very successful. Poor business move.

they didn't come to see Darlene call the shots

You are the one who isn't thinking hard enough. Sometimes you never think at all with all the idiotic posting you do. Exactly how do you know the spinoff is going to be a crappier version? It very well could be better. Unless you're a psychic who can see the future, you don't know. There have been numerous spinoffs that have been highly successful.

You don't understand risk at all. There is much less risk involved with making a spinoff of an already successful show than making a brand new show. I'm sorry, NMB, but you're uneducated, so you shouldn't be trying to talk about how business works when you have absolutely no clue how business works.

Who said the show is going to pretend Roseanne never existed? They can still acknowledge her. Heck, the pilot acknowledged Jerry... (aka the baby born in the last few seasons that probably very few people even remember)

Yeah, it's an old joke, but I don't see why they couldn't just recast Roseanne. After all, they recast Becky, and it even became a running joke within the show of the "two Beckys." They could do the same with Roseanne.

Mid-season replaced.
