Look at it this way, Roseanne's revival has been bleeding viewers for weeks now and as of last week had like a 23% drop, and also is no longer leading their time slot with NCIS beating it. Oh, and Blackish already recovered and pulls higher numbers than them.

Basically her show will be shit canned after the second season and we can go back to ignoring her crazy conspiracy theorist ass

Never said that she wasn't successful. Her show has bled viewers since the premier and although it's still doing okay for a network show, I have to imagine the cost for the people involved will outweigh the ratings and it doesn't get a third season. But that's okay, I know it's easier to argue against shit you with people said instead of what they actually said. It's a bit lazy though, so you may want to work on that flaw.

And she believes in the QAnon horseshit, so yes, she's literally a crazy person.

That's what we hoped the show would be, but then Roseanne revealed her power level. Now we're so deep into Poe's Law it's probably better to assume they're being serious.

Haven't seen the episode but it sounded like a good plot that promoted tolerance. Roseanne comes to get over her bigotry and realize that her neighbors are good people, just like Archie Bunker learned that his gay friend was actually just a normal person.

Yup.

Also the actual game wasn't televised and she's not a singer but a comedian that bombed the song hard so she goofed and tried to be funny but looked classless instead.

There is an interview of her saying that moment was probably one of her biggest regrets.

She was pretty much universally criticized for it. I think her obscene gesturing was directed at the people who were booing her.

To be fair, NCIS is making a super big deal about Pauley Perrette leaving the show. I've been seeing a lot of "Say goodbye to Abbie" commercials for the show. That could be drawing in additional viewers that might otherwise watch other shows like Roseanne.

It happened a while ago so people forgot. I bet if Kaep did this 20 years ago and came out as a trump supporter he would also have the support of the alt right. Look how quick alt right jumped on kanye

Similarly, Kaepernick will be completely forgiven if he ever becomes a decent quarterback.

Roseanne says a lot of problematic stupid ass shit. Overall, I still think shes a person who cares about races/gender/sexuality/religions. Ultimately I think its good to let her do her thing because she could probably change the minds of a few people on the right to be a little less bigoted and hateful. I mean she has a non-binary grandkid and shows a muslim Family is good despite prejudices of white people.

This
Roseanne much like Archie is a heavily flawed character that you're often meant to disagree with. She can be a sweet loving mother but also a manipulative bitch towards her children. She's ignorant but somewhat able to learn from her faults at points as well.

Hes a lot better than Tebow. People act like Kaepernick was Ryan leaf levels. Hes better than most back ups in the league and could start on a few others. If not for the kneeling hed easily be on a team right now. To deny that is denying reality. And before anyone says Tebow was blackballed because religion!...a few teams wanted to sign him if he agreed to change positions because of how poor he was at being a QB. He declined because god made him a qb and thats all he could be...

What the fuck are you talking about?

Rosanne had its series low on last night. It pulled a 2.6 in the 18-49 (the only demo that matters when it comes to a show's financial success). NCIS last night had a 1.6 in the 18-49. Blackish had a 1.2.

And as far as "doing okay for a network show", the only scripted shows that are even in the same ballpark are This Is Us and Big Bang Theory.
