Comedy: Apatow Believes Roseanne Is ‘Crying Out for Help’ As Opposed to Being Hateful, Seinfeld co signs

Seems Like We Can't Get Rid of Roseanne Barr That Easily; Comedian Speaks Out About Job Offers She's Received Since Racist Rant


In another life, maybe Roseanne Barr was a cop or something. Or, maybe this is just peak caucasity at work. Either way, it looks like we may not be getting rid of the washed-up comedian any time soon, at least not after her racist rant a little less than two months ago.

According to Barr herself, she is already considering a new offer to return to TV.

“Inside every bad thing is a good thing waiting to happen and I feel very excited because I’ve already been offered so many things and I almost already accepted one really good offer to go back on TV and I might do it,” she said, with all the faux stoicism she could muster. “But we’ll see.”

Barr revealed her apparently good fortune to her friend, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, in a new podcast that was released on Saturday night, ABC News notes.

Barr didn’t offer any details about these job offers, but there you have it; Roseanne may be down, but apparently, she’s not out.

So much for comedianJerry Seinfeld’s theory that her firing from the ABC reboot Roseanne was overkill because “she’s already dead.”

Barr was quickly dragged to the depths of hell in May after she thought it was a great idea to refer to former President Obama’s senior adviser Valerie Jarrett as a product of the Muslim Brotherhood and the Planet of the Apes in a tweet.

ABC dropped her quicker than the proverbial hot potato even as Barr released a torrent of white tears, insisting that she wasn’t racist, then claiming she was woozy at the time she was tweeting because of Ambien, then claiming that the tweet was really about anti-semitism, before ultimately crying in another podcast interview released earlier in Junewith Boteach that she “lost everything.”

“I’m not a racist, I’m an idiot,” Barr said.

Whatever it was, looks like those white woman tears are paying off.

In all of this, Barr said that while she apologized to Jarrett the same day her tweet got her in trouble, she intends to reach out to Jarrett to apologize privately, you know, after two months.

“I do [plan to call],” Barr said. “But once again, it’s all about the right words and you have to do a lot of meditating and praying for the right words and I just don’t know what the right words would be.”

Now all of a sudden, you have concerns about the “right words” when you didn’t seem to give a damn before, Roseanne.

With just one week to go before the premiere of The Conners, the sitcom’s stars have kicked their promotional tour into high gear. Last night, Conner family patriarch John Goodman visited Jimmy Kimmel Live, where he tried to avoid spoiling anything else about the Roseanne Barr-less spin-off series. Goodman more or less succeeded on that front, but he made waves when he insisted that Roseanne “gave up a lot” to get The Conners on the air. During the segment, Goodman described Roseanne as his “buddy” and said that the disgraced comedian is immensely “missed” by the show’s cast and crew.

Goodman told Kimmel that he was left adrift after Roseanne’s racist tweet got the sitcom canceled. “Last year was so miraculous and so unreal that when it went away it was almost like a dream,” said Goodman. The sudden cancellation shocked Goodman, who “crashed for a couple of weeks” and spiraled downward. “All kinds of weird stuff happened. My wife got sick right after that. Then I fell down the stairs,” said the actor.

But things picked up when ABC green-lit The Conners, a development that Goodman insists was Roseanne’s doing. “Roseanne basically renounced her financial stake in the show so that the show could keep going,” said Kimmel. “Yes she did. It was an effort by Sara Gilbert, Tom Werner. And they got ABC to come around,” replied the actor. Referencing Roseanne, Goodman said, “She gave up a lot so that people could work.”

Goodman was careful not to spoil details about The Conners, but he promised that Roseanne’s presence is felt on set every day. “She is missed, definitely. After that many years, it’s like a family,” he said. “It was very weird doing the first show without her, because she’s my buddy.” Goodman then doubled down on his earlier comments, saying that The Conners owes a massive debt to Roseanne. “She gave up a lot for us to be able to do the show. I can’t thank her enough,” he said.

The Conners premieres Tuesday, October 16 at 8/7c on ABC.
 
Roseanne Barr is a racist sack of shit,she got caught out then pretended she didn't know her victim was black. This is the new way to spin racism, "he/she's not racist they're just not thinking straight at the moment" .... Fuck anyone who buys that bullshit.

Of course Jerry Seinfeld would agree. He and Barr both are fuckin' Jews would you expect him to not make excuses for that racist cow? :mad:

I still can't believe that no one got the sarcasm in what she was saying lol not that I agree with her it's just always been funny that even people at a giant company like YouTube are incapable of understanding basic sarcasm.

I think the fact that she has used "humor" to excuse some real hateful sh*t she been spewing that does that.

You can't be a hate monger throwing hurtful insults and then get upset cause no one gets your style of humor anymore.
