Roseanne Barr: Comedian is planning series comeback

Roseanne Barr (72) apparently lost enough for a racist tweet from 2018. After she has not taken place in large television or streaming series since then, she wants to return with her own production. Barr, a big Trump supporter for many years, apparently wants to take advantage of the political situation in the United States – and does not keep it behind the mountain that her series could be problematic.

Barr became known internationally primarily through the once popular sitcom “Roseanne”. She wrote the new series together with Allan Stephan and would like to appear in the four to six planned episodes herself, as she explains. The 72-year-old describes the whole thing as a mix of the same sitcom and the gangster drama “The Sopranos”. As the actress and comedian suggests, her series is apparently a not exactly tasteful mix of political statement and gossen humor.

The focus is on a small town farmer from Alabama “who saves the United States from drug gangs and China”. He also builds drugs and sell them. There are words like “silly and unusual”, the series is based on “very insulting ideas and a lot of curse”. Barr live with her daughter, her husband and six grandchildren on a farm in Hawaii. “They save America with firearms, the Bible, petty crime and alcoholism,” she says. The family owns similarities to the Conners from “Roseanne”.

Roseanne Barr wants to search for a buyer in the dream factory shortly. “If Hollywood doesn’t buy it, I’ll do it myself,” she says. “Someone likes in [Hollywood] America or the people who television? Because the people who television would really like to see a series in which working people win against the enemies of America. “

Hollywood had made itself “irrelevant” for the people in the USA. In her view, in the film Mecca you should “work with the new president” if you want to “survive” there. People finally helped Trump to go a “overwhelming victory”.

Barr had shot himself in 2018 – both in Hollywood and what was a “Roseanne” comeback that had started successfully shortly before. At that time, the ABC broadcaster was forced to end the collaboration with Barr. “Roseanne’s Twitter statement is hideous, repulsive and inconspicuous with our values,” said the station. The Trump supporter had insulted Barack Obamas (63) long-time consultant Valerie Jarrett (68) in a tweet deleted shortly afterwards. “If the Muslim Brotherhood had a baby and planet a baby, it would look like Valerie Jarrett,” wrote Barr.
