Roseanne Barr: Cancel This!

I was never really a Rosanne fan, not because she isn't funny, but because her voice always annoyed me. I never gave her much of a chance. I decided to watch her special. I'm glad I watched because she is really funny. Her jokes are well thought out. I hope this special gives her the bump she needs to restore her career. She is still relevant and deserves a second chance. She has a great outlook on her family, her career, and her personal life. She leaves it all out on the stage. If you are pro America, patriotic, and can't stand cancel culture, this will be fun for you to watch. Anyways, enjoy.

I am a bit puzzled by this entry in the database. After several decades of use, I have never seen an entry that has been rated by several hundred people (more than 500 at the time of my viewing), yet less than a handful are available for review. Is it possible that so few people were willing to go on record or is some type of cultural proxy war taking place? I think you have to have an account to vote your rating, right? Did people have an account, vote, but were disinterested in commenting? That seems so non-IMDb.

In any event, I thought her special uneven but certainly better than her current average rating of about 2.6. I have never been much of a fan of hers, both in her early stand-up days and later in her sit-com megaglory days. I decided to view it just out of curiosity. She is obviously on a mission and thinks that taking on as many taboos will strike the audience's fancy. Perhaps so, but I think she'd be better served by refining her jokes and stories. Perhaps after 16 years being away from the stand-up stage (or so I've read), she's just rusty.

Roseanne Barr has had some troubles, and by troubles I mean consequences of her own actions. But, of course, this wasn't her fault, it was "woke cancel culture." This special is absolutely terrible, and not because it's offensive, it's because it's so unfunny and there are so few actual jokes that it is painful to watch. It's rather sad seeing her fall from her 'Roseanne' show, which had an amazing first few seasons. That was comedy GOLD. Actual jokes and characters that were relatable. This is just Roseanne standing on a stage and making statements that she knows will get responses from the republican crowd. Most of the raucous audience reactions were clearly edited onto the end of "jokes" that most likely got small pity laughs. Not worth the time at all.

Hospitalize this woman. She is in dire need of help. The media executives, fans and viewers all need to revisit their agendas for producing and viewing this show. It's sad and pathetic. And clearly opportunistic exploitation of a very sick person. It's horrifying to see a demented individual get propped up and allowed to exhibit the loss of cognitive ability. Hopefully she is so far gone that she doesn't realize it herself. Making money off of the frailty and loss of brain function should be illegal. Too bad these seriously ill celebrities get abused like this and are put on display for improper purposes. Is it simple greed, retaliation or outright incompetence? Likely all of the above.

I was hoping to laugh as I watched her owned the libs but I couldn't even giggle at the horrible whining she did on stage.

She is clearly mentally ill with only yes people around here, the decision to film this as a special was a horrible idea.

Roseanne is who we all thought she was, an obnoxious racist who used to have a platform.

Fox should be ashamed! Help this woman not give her a platform!

Instead of trying to make a buck from Roseanne the people surrounding her need to say no and get her the mental healthcare she so desperately needs.

I will pray for you Roseanne!

She needs our help, please HELP ROSEANNE!
