Comedian Roseanne Barr was canceled by Hollywood for speaking her mind.
She’s not backing down in her fight against the woke outrage mob.
And Roseanne Barr has one comeback in store that sent Hollywood into a state of panic.
Roseanne Barr plans a comeback with a new sitcom featuring a twist
Comedian Roseanne Barr was one of the most successful sitcom stars of the 1990s with her ABC hit Roseanne.
The show struck a chord with audiences for its realistic portrayal of working-class Americans.
ABC revived Roseanne in 2018 but the show was canceled despite its high ratings after Barr made a controversial post on social media comparing former Obama administration official Valerie Jarrett to a character from Planet of the Apes.
One of the great sitcom stars was canceled for speaking out against a Democrat when Hollywood worked itself into a frenzy over President Donald Trump during his first term.
That was the last time that she worked in a mainstream Hollywood production.
There’s been a cultural shift against wokeness and cancel culture after Trump’s election last year.
Barr is planning on making a comeback with another sitcom with her as the lead.
She and Roseanne writer Allan Stephan developed a new comedy series they’re shopping around Hollywood.
The show will have six to eight episodes, which Barr said is “a cross between The Roseanne Show and The Sopranos.”
New Roseanne comedy series is going to be edgy
Barr said the show is about the family of an Alabama farmer who is “saving the United States from drug gangs and China.”
The humor in the new series will be edgier than what her fans were used to on Roseanne.
“It’s silly and out there,” Barr said. “[It will contain] very offensive ideas and a lot of swearing. I live with my daughter and her husband and their six children on a farm.”
She added that the show will be based on some of her real-life experiences.
“And they have goats running through their house and stuff,” Barr explained. “It’s based on my life as a farmer in Hawaii. They save America with guns, the Bible, petty crime, and alcoholism. It’s kind of like the Coen brothers thing.”
The Coen brothers were behind such films as No Country for Old Men, Fargo, and O Brother, Where Art Thou?
Barr said that her new show’s family would share similarities with the Conner family that was featured in Roseanne.
“There’s a scene where I have to strap myself into a corset. My granddaughter helps me, and then I go into town to flirt with all the shopkeepers that are just grotesque people,” Barr joked. “It’s just kind of a cartoony kind of thing.”
The comedian said that if no one in Hollywood picks up the show she will just make it herself.
“If Hollywood doesn’t buy it, then I’m just gonna make it myself,” Barr explained. “Does anybody in [Hollywood] like America or the people who watch TV? Because the people who watch TV would really like to see a show where working-class people win against the enemies of America.”
Barr ripped Hollywood for pushing a left-wing agenda over entertainment.
“Hollywood has made itself irrelevant to the American people,” Barr said. “If they want to survive, they should work with the new President [Donald Trump]. American people elected him in an overwhelming victory. They should get back in touch with [them] and make some money, which I don’t know if they do or not ’cause they’ve proven to be ideologues rather than [business people]. What shocks me is the fact that they prefer to lose money and then explain that to the shareholders who apparently have no problem with that.”
Roseanne Barr could be back making people laugh in a sitcom after she was the victim of cancel culture.
