Details Released About ‘Roseanne’ Spinoff

John Goodman is speaking publically about his former co-star Roseanne Barr and offering up details about the upcoming spinoff of the show.

According to Town Hall:

The “Roseanne” spinoff “The Conners” is going forward without its namesake. Roseanne Barr tweeted some very controversial remarks about former President Obama aide Valerie Jarrett in May and lost ABC’s confidence, not to mention a few fans. The show plans to proceed by killing off the title character, according to John Goodman, who plays Roseanne’s husband Dan.

In the spinoff of the reboot, Goodman predicted his character on “The Conners” will be “mopey and sad because his wife’s dead.”

In May, Barr tweeted, “Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj,” in reference to Jarrett. Barr apologized for the tweet, alleging that she had taken the sleeping pill Ambien at the time she sent it. ABC didn’t buy it and fired Barr. Her costar John Goodman said he was “brokenhearted” at the time.

“But I went through a period, about a month, where I was very depressed,” Goodman told The Times of London. “I’m a depressive anyway, so any excuse that I can get to lower myself, I will. But that had a great deal to do with it, more than I wanted to admit.”

Goodman also offered his support for Barr saying he “knows for a fact that she is not a racist.”
