>Returning as writers on the show are Wanda Sykes and Norm MacDonald as well as veteran Roseanne alumni Bruce Rasmussen, Dave Caplan, Sid Youngers and Betsy Borns, all of whom had worked on the original, Helford said, noting that the series is adding a number of new writers.
Rather..not returning. I don't think Rosanne contributed much in the writing department.
I thought the show was actually watchable, even with the obvious looking down the nose at America's working lower-middle class. That part bugged me a little. At least one of the writers seems to have a pretty low-brow opinion of middle America, which some might agree with, but it just didn't feel right to me.
For one, I didn't really feel the whole shoplifting and opiates glamorization vibe. It was like a part of the story that didn't add anything while just sending a negative message or just a sad attempt to find the lowest common denominator with the highest buzz. Made me think the writers REALLY have a skewed opinion and look down on commoners. Or maybe its the producers and networks?
Overall, the show shed a pretty crappy light on the working class, in more than a couple moments, IMNSHO.
>People of all races, religions and nationalities work at Sanofi every day to improve the lives of people around the world,” the company said in an official announcement. “While all pharmaceutical treatments have side effects, racism is not a known side effect of any Sanofi medication.”
>..Ultimately, the real Roseanne undermined the fictional one. Roseanne the character could humanize the show’s white, Midwestern, salt-of-the-earth types only if Barr kept up appearances, at least well enough for viewers to suspend disbelief. She could not. Rather than celebrate the network and the show’s famous co-stars for speaking out now, it is better to reconsider their initial motives. If they did this simply for the money, they are unprincipled. If they did it to show audiences relatable and “normal” Trump-loving Americans, they are misguided.
Barr may have wanted to use a fictional version of herself to prove that white people who love Donald Trump—people like her, in short—are not racists who traffic in ludicrous conspiracy theories and detest anyone who isn’t like them. She failed because that is exactly what she is. ABC, in abetting this mess, found that even Hollywood magic can’t make sympathetic characters out of such people, although I suspect it will keep trying. The alternative is confronting the fact that the beliefs of a substantial number of Americans are malevolent and dangerous, not mere differences of opinion that can be resolved in 20 minutes, with a hug.
