LOL What a crock of baloney. Why? Because, unlike yours truly, I'd bet the farm that your displeasure at politics encroaching on "entertainment" doesn't extend to every other friggin' scripted show that comes from the left, does it?
I've carped about Roseanne AND those other shows because I want to be entertained, not preached to by people on ANY side of the political spectrum. While others only complain when Hollyweird appears to stray from the Democrat plantation.
Thanks for the laugh.
I'm fine with politics being in entertainment. I know how to watch or not watch.
I found it funny that Americans didn't see the Connors as deadbeats.
BOO!!!
Maybe another Network will pick it up.
Everyone knows that comedians are loose cannons. That comes with the territory.
Well, thanks for the laughs.
Nooooooooo! I really like the show. And personally I think cutting everyone off from their livelihood because of their personal opinions/comments/religious beliefs/political leanings, etc. has gotten way out of hand.
Whatever happened to Patrick Henry: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”?
No one is cut off from their livelihoods. Actors can get other roles. John Goodman is a great actor.
ABC is a business and it was a smart business move.
Whatever happened to Patrick Henry: “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”?
I think that was Evelyn Beatrice Hall referencing (paraphrasing) Voltaire who may or may not have said "I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write."
In any case the spirit of the quote would suggest paying consequences for your words should be off the table.
But its just an opinion and in modern society we do pay consequences for what we say, just not from the Government generally.
i'm bummed because i like the show and i also feel bad for all of the other actors who had nothing to do with these stupid tweets.
I hear ya. This can't really be considered an unexpected turn of events though. Roseanne and her craziness could make them or break them.
