Probably the same kind of people who have time to post in the TV forum of the Entertainment forum.

And probably also the same kind of people who have made 31,353 forum posts.

And what's your beef with the Slap Chop? Vince the Slap Chop Guy just wants to make America skinny again. Tacos, Fettuccine, Linguini, Martini, Bikini. You're gonna love his nuts. This is for you:

Freedom of speech does NOT equal freedom from consequences and repurcussions.

In solitary confinement with a lesbian serial killer... Hmmm.


Solitary...with a killer.


Sounds like a script for another reality show.

First amendment protects citizens from government actions to stifle free speech.

There is no such thing as free speech as an employee of an organization and employees and contractors and everyone affiliated (even highly paid actors) are held to contracts that have specific rules about behavior, anti-harassment policies, morals clauses and various other things.

So while the government won't go after someone because of their rude, hateful opinions, a person spewing things online that is considered reprehensible most certainly can (and will) be negatively affected and held accountable by organizations they are employed by or are a part of.

Live by the sword; die by the sword

My guess is that advertisers pulling out had a lot to do with what's happened.

Zero chance. She is toxic at this point, and will never work in Hollywood again. Never.

I'm not sure what you mean? She said what she said, and hasn't been arrested or anything. Complete freedom of speech.

Oh, you mean her job? Yeah, she got fired, just like any of us would in that situation. Even CEOs lose their jobs when they act like an idiot.

John Goodman is like in every major movie. He's much more successful than Roseanne. They were doing her a favor by doing her show. They will all be fine. It's the crew that will suffer. They got their hopes up that they would have steady work. Something not easily come by in television and now they are unemployed. While I loved the new show, her remarks were horribly racist and disgusting. More than just poor taste and shock comedy.
