Roseanne Barr revealed how her character will get killed off on the upcoming spinoff of "Roseanne" after she was fired from the ABC series in May for writing a racist tweet.
Barr told Brandon Straka on his YouTube show "Walk Away," that the writers of the ABC spinoff "The Conners" elected to have her character die by overdosing on opioids

I can't think of a more fitting end. It's my hope they find her wearing her MAGA hat!

I might be wrong and this wouldn't be the first time in my life I was wrong, but I doubt this show can stand on its own without her presence. She was the show...
I won't be watching.

Agreed, I don't see it working without her either.I might be wrong and this wouldn't be the first time in my life I was wrong, but I doubt this show can stand on its own without her presence. She was the show...

In my OP I wasn't kidding about the "fitting" ending, because I believe pills may be involved in her behaviour. She admitted it in her Tweet controversy, and check her out here:I will miss her. And I don't think she's racist. I think she was just acting stupid. And she had been acting stupid a lot, and this was the last straw.
If it was the only way she had been a thorn in ABC's side, then all she would have had to do was take credit for the decisions to give D.J. a black wife (as well as bringing a crossdressing grandson into the series) to defend herself against the racism charge.
But she had already dug her hole pretty deep before she laid on the stupid Planet of the Apes line.
Soooo ... yes, I will miss her. I already miss her. I'm sorry she was so stupid and ruined the show for America. It was a great opportunity to add some humanity to our hyperpartisan nation and she blew it. I'm glad the other people involved in making the show got an extra year of work and time to go look for other employment on their own terms. But I will be surprised if the show lasts more than another year and if I happen to forget that it's on I won't feel bad about missing it.

I never really got her form of humor. Then I never like John Belushi, either.I saw that. Man, she really lost it there.
It seems to me to be pretty hard to revive an overdose death, though. It's not like she disappeared while running out for a pack of smokes!That the character will have been killed off may later become inane.
Weird how some of the left is taking glee in torturing her after she lost so much. Digging up the bones of her show and playing with them and laughing at her....
Another +1 for the "tolerant left".

I've got to admit, that was pretty creative and quite a stretch!You do recall that one season of Dallas was a dream, don't you? LOL
I think you nailed it. It wasn't necessarily the theme that didn't work for me, but the character - the person. Roseann herself.I never was in to Rosie.
It's not that I don't have a good appreciation for white trash, low rent, trailer park type humor. I just never thought Rosie was very good at it.
I love The Trailer Park Boys though.

Yet I could watch Archie Bunker all day long ...
