Roseanne Barr claims that getting kicked off of Roseanne was the worst thing that ever happened to her. For Sabrina Carpenter, getting cast on it could have been even worse.
Even without Barr, the revival of the beloved 1990s sitcom Roseanne has been a huge success for ABC since The Conners first premiered in 2018. After Barr’s dismissal following her racist tweets directed at Obama administration official Valerie Jarrett, the reworked sitcom sans title character was the #1 new comedy for the 2018 season, and, though The Conners suffered the same gradual drop-off that most sitcoms see in later seasons, ABC is reportedly eyeing 2025 for the release of the seventh and final season of the now-John-Goodman-led comedy.
This means that, in some alternative universe, Sabrina Carpenter is currently getting ready to send off her Conners character Harris Conner-Healy with grace, and Emma Kenney released the song of the 2024 summer with “Espresso.”

Sabrina Carpenter might have said “Please Please Please” to The Conners’ casting agents, but former showrunner Whitney Cummings is glad the pop star didn’t get a part on the Roseanne spinoff. Cummings revealed the casting near-miss with People last week at Elle’s Women in Hollywood Celebration in Beverly Hills, California. While reflecting on getting comfortable with rejection in Hollywood — which she deemed one of the biggest lessons she has learned about showbiz — Cummings shared that Carpenter auditioned on the day they were casting the part of Harris Conner-Healy on the Roseanne revival. Emma Kenney was eventually cast in that role, and the revival aired one season as Roseanne before being rebooted as The Conners without Roseanne Barr. “Sabrina Carpenter auditioned … and it wasn’t the right fit,” Cummings said. “She got a rejection that day when we were casting the daughter.” Justin Stephens/Disney But Cummings is glad...

Gilbert Gottfried began doing stand-up at 15 and continued performing until he died in 2022 at the age of 67. Throughout all that time, though, he never released a comedy album of original material. As his widow, Dara Gottfried, explains to me, “I nagged Gilbert for 20 years to put out an album of his original material, but Gilbert never updated his act — he was still doing jokes about Molly Ringwald, O.J. Simpson and Gary Coleman. He was afraid that, if people could hear an album of his material, they wouldn’t go see his live shows.”
But after Gilbert’s untimely passing from myotonic dystrophy type 2, a rare disease that causes muscle weakness and dysfunction, Dara decided the moment was finally right for that album. With the help of Gottfried’s friends Penn Jillette, Jeff Ross and several others, she released Still Screaming earlier this month, the profits from which go to the...

It’s a little shocking when Jim Gaffigan walks out on stage for his new Hularious stand-up special, The Skinny. The reason: Gaffigan is, well, skinny. Shockingly so, like down-50-pounds skinny. And the secret behind his weight loss isn’t what you’re thinking, which he says right at the top: He’s not on Ozempic. “I’m on a different one,” he clarifies. “I’m on Mounjaro, which is better because it sounds like an Italian restaurant.”
Gaffigan spends the first 10 minutes of The Skinny getting real about his weight loss, including the knowledge that it might be temporary. While his doctor recommended the appetite suppressant to prevent future health problems, Gaffigan is keeping his “fat clothes” for the inevitable slide.
He’s also aware of the drawbacks of such medications, replacing self-discipline, exercise and healthy eating with “a weekly shot that killed all the passion inside of me.

"The Big Bang Theory" ran for 12 seasons and the same number of years — from 2007 to 2019, to be precise — and fans still love Chuck Lorre's sitcoms about a gang of (somewhat) lovable nerds even though this one has been off the airwaves for some time now. The success of "The Big Bang Theory" is unquestionably due to the show's outstanding cast, as every single series regular brought something genuinely special to their individual roles, and the chemistry between the main characters is definitely what made people tune into the show week after week.
So what has the cast of "The Big Bang Theory" been doing since the show came to a close in the spring of 2019? They're a pretty talented bunch, so you probably won't be surprised to learn that pretty much all of them have stayed booked and busy in Hollywood.

Aubrey Plaza has been waiting to wade into John Waters’ filmography for decades, ever since she first watched his 1994 satirical film “Serial Mom.”
During a visit alongside director Sean Price Williams to Kim’s Video at Alamo Drafthouse in Downtown Manhattan for its web series, Plaza credited Waters for inspiring her comedy taste in film.
“John Waters blew my mind with ‘Serial Mom,'” she said, adding that working in a video store while in high school was how she “learned about independent films.”
The “Megalopolis” actress added, “I was getting really into John Waters. I was getting really into ‘Waiting for Guffman’ and Christopher Guest movies. [But] ‘Serial Mom’ for me was like, oh my god…I was laughing so much. I thought it was the funniest shit I’ve ever seen.

The Conners will be back for its “farewell” seventh season which has some fans brokenhearted. No matter how good or bad the show had gotten, it was reliable with familiar faces. Now, the series is officially ending but when will the last handful of episodes air? Keep reading for more details.
The Conners Sets Return Date For ‘Farewell’ Season 7
When Season 6 of The Conners was coming to a close, there was a lot of uncertainty. The show changed time slots which is always a hit-or-miss situation. Then, it was down to the wire and there were no contracts sent out to the cast. This led many to believe the show had reached its limit and was no longer a fan favorite.

Drea de Matteo never was particularly political. Her only partisan statement came via a 2010 music video she directed for Shooter Jenning’s “Summer of Rage” — a not-so-subtle jab at the Bush-Cheney administration’s ever-churning war machine. In 2020, she voted for the first time in her life in the presidential election, casting her ballot for Joe Biden in his bid to replace Donald Trump in the White House. Then, as the Covid pandemic entered its second year, everything came crashing down for “The Sopranos” actress whose Adriana La Cerva provided the sole conscience in a sea of moral degenerates.
“I’m a hippie. I didn’t want to get the vaccine. I wanted to wait it out to see what the outcome was,” she says.
Her family shunned her for being anti-vax. She became persona non grata among the Hollywood set. And her agent, who she considered a friend, dropped her.

While horror films are the traditional fare for a night such as tonight, the last half-century of American culture embracing the theme of the season has led to every syndicated TV show at least attempting a Halloween episode, and, for those of us who prefer laughs to gasps, we’d rather settle in with a sitcom than a slasher while we eat cupcakes decorated like skulls and drink punch that we’ll pretend is blood.

The Conners — aka Roseanne Minus Roseanne — will soon be returning for its seventh and final season. It will be hard to say goodbye to some of those characters (assuming that they won’t just be brought back for yet another reboot 20 years from now), but it will be really tough to say goodbye to that living room.
For those of us who grew up with the original Roseanne, it was pretty wild to see the Conners’ house brought back to life for the 2018 revival, including, most importantly, that iconic couch.
But while it looks identical, the couch from the Roseanne reboot and The Conners isn’t really the original. While promoting the show six years ago, John Goodman claimed that they were forced to use a “replica” because the real couch is at the Smithsonian, and the famed institution wanted too much money for it.

Television series can be creative laboratories, especially early in their runs. The creators and their writing staff might find their initial concept morphing into a completely different type of show (e.g. "Cougar Town" went from being a Courtney Cox vehicle about older women chasing younger men to an ensemble sitcom about nerdball friends who drink a ton of wine), while some shows head down narrative alleys they ultimately pretend never existed (like the time Landry and Tyra killed a guy during the second season of "Friday Night Lights").
And then sometimes life just flat-out gets in the way. Sometimes an actor feels like they've become too big of a star and prematurely bolt the show (à la David Caruso and "NYPD Blue"), or they get fired over a contract dispute (which is how "Valerie" became "The Hogan Family").
This brings us to "Roseanne" and the case of the two Beckys.

Kick Kennedy, the daughter of independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., stated that her father cut off a whale’s head with a chainsaw.
During a recently resurfaced interview with Town & Country which took place in 2012, Kick told the outlet that when she was six, her father discovered that a dead whale washed up on Squaw Island, a beach located in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts.
Kennedy’s daughter then mentioned that the independent presidential candidate ran down to the beach with a chainsaw, cut off the whale’s head, and then bungee-corded it to the roof of his family’s minivan for their five-hour trip back to Mount Kisco, New York.

If there’s anyone in the world who could make good use of a time machine, it’s Roseanne Barr.
Were Doc Brown to pop by Roseanne’s house in his DeLorean, one would assume that the famed comedian might want to revisit the year 2018, when she posted a racist Tweet about former Obama administration staffer Valerie Jarrett that got her fired from her own TV show. Or at the very least, she could go back and stop herself from opening that failed vanity restaurant with Tom Arnold. Or, you know, marrying Tom Arnold.
The subject of temporal intervention came up in a recent interview with Barr. Closer Weekly asked the former sitcom star, “If you could go back in time and give yourself advice, what would you say?”

Phil Donahue, known as the “King of Daytime Talk,” has died at the age of 88. He passed away in his home surrounded by family on Sunday, August 18. To remember the daytime television legend, here is a look at the talk show host’s long, successful career.
A Look Back At Phil Donahue’s Career
The daytime talk show host kickstarted his career in the late 1950s. He got his start on radio and television before pitching his own talk show, The Phil Donahue Show. The show was created in 1967 in Dayton, Ohio. Over the years, he gained credibility for talking about controversial topics. He also took viewers behind bars at the Ohio State Penitentiary in 1971, which gained him a lot of recognition among journalists.
The show’s hour-long broadcast dedicated itself to single issues. Each episode would cover things like abuse in the Catholic Church, race relations, and feminism, all hot topics at the time.

Saturday Night Live alum Victoria Jackson has revealed that doctors found an inoperable tumor in her windpipe amid her battle with cancer.
The actress-comedian confirmed on Wednesday in a new video for her “Is the Cancer Back?” Instagram series that her cancer had returned. She also estimated that she has roughly three years to live.
“[Doctors] cannot operate and cut out the marble in my chest that is laying on my windpipe, and eventually would suffocate me to death,” Jackson explained in the lengthy video.
As for her course of treatment, she said her healthcare providers were going to give her a “magic pill.” “It’s going to be delivered to my front door within the next 12 hours,” she added. “It’s based on Ribociclib, and it will shrink the marble, hopefully.” Ribociclib aims to slow or stop the growth of the cancer.

A court in Albany, New York, ruled that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. can’t appear on the New York State presidential ballot.
A recent lawsuit alleges that Kennedy’s New York ballot nomination petition listed a residence in Katonah, New York, while he actually lived in the Los Angeles area since 2014. The suit is backed by Clear Choice Pac, a super Pac led by progressives
It was also filed on behalf of several voters hoping to invalidate the independent candidate’s New York ballot petition. The lawsuit claims that he “at most only visited” the residence about 40 miles north of midtown Manhattan. Kennedy testified last Tuesday that his address is in Katonah. He also said that he moved to California in 2014 to be with his wife, Cheryl Hines.

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that he dumped the dead body of a bear cub in Central Park a decade ago.
A New Yorker story published on Monday suggested that this incident happened in the fall of 2014. The timing aligns with the media coverage surrounding a dead bear cub found in Central Park in 2014.
The magazine reported that Kennedy passed by a “furry brown mound” on the side of the road in upstate New York while on his way to a falconry outing.

Nothing screams “presidential damage control” like spilling the beans on your Central Park bear carcass hoax to Roseanne Barr over coffee and dog meat.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign to win the White House as an unlikely and unhinged third-party candidate continues to be a comedy of errors, one which Kennedy’s wife, Curb Your Enthusiasm star Cheryl Hines, probably hoped would start to look less like an episode of her best-known work the closer it came to November. In May, Kennedy revealed that his doctors found a dead worm in his head that had eaten a portion of his brain. In July, a viral and macabre photo showed Kennedy posing with the barbecued body of an animal that many believed to be a dog, and a profile accused the presidential hopeful of sexually assaulting an old family baby sitter.

Updated: Robert Kennedy Jr., the independent presidential candidate, said in a video posted to X on Sunday that he was the person who placed a dead bear cub in Central Park, making it look like it was involved in an accident with a bicycle.
He relayed the unusual story apparently in an effort to get ahead of a New Yorker piece on the incident. The publication published the profile this morning, including a photo of Kennedy putting his fingers inside the bear’s mouth.
In the video, Kennedy is speaking to Roseanne Barr, in a kitchen area.
Kennedy said that he had been in the Hudson Valley area, early one morning, when a woman in a van in front of him hit a bear and killed it.

Nearly ten years later, the culprit has come forward: presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who decided to preempt a magazine piece exposing this strange tale.

Hollywood has never been one to shy away from making political statements, whether they’re roasting Donald Trump on what used to be called Twitter or proudly waving the blue flag. After the latest presidential debate, here’s a breakdown, five actors who’ve got Trump’s back and five who are definitely not feeling it.
Donald Trump’s cameo in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York | Fox Family Entertainment
Despite some ups and downs in Joe Biden’s public perception, he’s garnered a top-tier lineup of celebrity endorsements in recent years. Celebrities like Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Leonardo DiCaprio, and even Taylor Swift, to name a few have backed him.
In contrast, Donald Trump, despite his history in Hollywood, has never managed to attract such significant star support. His endorsements largely come from the C- and D-list public figures.

These days, it feels like George Clooney is known more for his political opinions than his acting career. Billions earned at the box office? Meh. Billions more raised in advocacy, humanitarian efforts, and charity? Yawn. Two-time People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive? Getting closer, but nah. Donald Trump calls you a “rat” on Truth Social? That’s when you know you’ve made it.
Believe it or not, George Clooney used to be famous for something other than his political flip-flops. Well, hold onto your hats because there was actually a time before Clooney’s latest head-scratcher: penning a New York Times op-ed calling Joe Biden unfit for office mere weeks after throwing him the mother of all fundraisers. Yes, you heard that right – he hosted a record-breaking cash bash for Biden, the biggest ever for a Democrat candidate, then declared to the world that the guy shouldn’t run.

Say what you will about Joe Biden (and we’ve been as candid as anyone), the man has enjoyed an A-list roster of celebrity fans in recent years: Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lawrence and George Clooney are among those who have endorsed and/or fundraised. While Biden’s famous supporters haven’t been nearly so public or enthusiastic since his debate disaster, Hollywood loves the Dems and isn’t shy about it.
Donald Trump, despite having spend a great deal of time in Hollywood, has never drawn much star support. Yet he still has an odd assemblage of mostly C- and D-listers. To some extent, this is true of most modern Republican presidential candidates (with Ronald Reagan probably being the last to draw a fair amount major star support).

Country singer Ingrid Andress is addressing fans directly following her National Anthem performance at the 2024 T-Mobile Home Run Derby on Monday, July 15. The performer who is known for her songs “More Hearts Than Mine” and “Wishful Drinking” took to the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas on Friday night to sing the patriotic tune only to elicit strong reactions online for the quality of her performance, which is usually pristine. Today, she came forward to address the matter after her rendition was compared to Roseanne Barr and Fergie’s memorable National Anthem moments. “I’m not gonna bulls**t y’all, I was drunk last night,” the singer wrote in a social media post to fans and viewers. “I’m checking myself into a facility today to get the help I need. That was not me last night. I apologize to MLB, all the fans, and this country I love so much for that rendition.

Like Christina Aguilera and Roseanne Barr before her, Ingrid Andress is coming under fire for an ill-received performance of the national anthem.
After the Grammy Award nominee’s voice cracked throughout her rendition of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ at the MLB‘s T-Mobile Home Run Derby on Monday in Arlington, Texas, she quickly became meme fodder on social media.
“Wow! @IngridAndress actually did it, she united America,” wrote one person on X (formerly Twitter) with a screenshot of multiple people on the platform criticizing the performance.
“That Ingrid Andress national anthem might have been the worst thing to happen in America in the last 48 hours #brutal,” wrote another person after Donald Trump was targeted during a shooting at his Pennsylvania campaign rally on Saturday.

After the Grammy Award nominee’s voice cracked throughout her rendition of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ at the MLB‘s T-Mobile Home Run Derby on Monday in Arlington, Texas, she quickly became meme fodder on social media.

The great Martin Mull passed away recently, leaving behind a prodigious comedic legacy that included Fernwood 2 Night, Clue and that one scene in Jingle All the Way — not to mention his oddball discography and acclaimed fine art career. Most remembrances of Mull, though, singled out his work in Roseanne, where he played Roseanne Conner’s boss/frenemy Leon.
Less well-known is Mull’s role in another Roseanne-produced project, 1992’s The Jackie Thomas Show, a short-lived sitcom starring Tom Arnold as the unhinged star of a fictional sitcom.
Mull played a network executive who once worked at NBC, where he tried to cancel Cheers before it became a hit. “A bunch of slobs sitting around a bar, who knew?” he asked in the pilot episode.
Created by Arnold and Roseanne, the series featured guest stars that included Roseanne herself, as a crazed fan, and Chris Farley, as Arnold’s younger brother.

Updated with Stone comment: After an outpouring of concern from Hollywood notables prompted by Joe Biden’s performance in the first 2024 presidential debate, Sharon Stone offered a counterpoint today in a video she posted to Instagram.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about last night’s debate,” Stone says to the camera from the passenger seat of a car, “and I’ve been thinking about the fact that more women are registered to vote than any other singular group. So, ladies, remember this: No matter how sleepy Joe may have seemed, he’s wide awake for you. So vote, for yourself.”

“Legalize humor!!” cry the creators of The New Norm Show as they post a clip of “comedy” so painful that it’s probably actionable under the Geneva Convention.
Right now, Rupert Murdoch’s right-wing media empire is hard at work establishing a foothold for the long-mocked category of “conservative comedy” on new media platforms through massive investments in Fox Nation projects for such marketable mainstream talents as Rob Schneider, Roseanne Barr and Jimmy Failla. Since the viewership demographics of Fox’ current comedy offerings overlaps so severely with the target audiences of email scammers and “Make America Great Again”-branded mobility scooters, you’d think that Fox executives would be falling out of their seats to fund a fresh, colorful comedy series on a platform frequented by those generations that are young enough to open PDFs.
