Roseanne Barr has emerged victorious in her legal battle against ABC. A Los Angeles jury has awarded her a staggering $208 million, and given her full control of the show, “The Conners,” which the jury determined was stolen from her by the network.
Her manager, Art Tubolls, has revealed that Roseanne plans to completely scrap the show, rather than revive it through a “return from the dead” storyline or produce it as it currently stands. Instead, she intends to cancel it as a way of sticking it to the so-called “libs.”
The show’s current cast was reportedly shocked by the news. John Goodman, who plays one of the show’s main characters, expressed gratitude for the five seasons of free cash on ABC and joked that he was happy to be done “selling his soul for wokeness.”
Besides the show’s main character, Sarah Gilbert, and her fellow cast member Laurie Metcalf, the rest of the cast seems ready to move on from the show. Lecy Gorensen, who plays a supporting role, expressed relief at the prospect of getting back to her true passion, ballet.
Regardless of what Roseanne decides to do with the show, she has emerged as the clear winner in this legal battle. She has won a significant amount of money, and no one can profit from her ideas without her approval. This is a quintessentially American victory, showcasing the power of an individual to fight against a large corporation and emerge victorious.
Good win for Roseanne. So proud of her standing up to the big corporations who can’t push everybody around. Good wishes for you and family.
Way to go Roseanne. So happy for you. You were the show and I have not watched it since ABC did that to you
