Re: [TV orNotTV] Wanda Sykes quits 'Roseanne' after Barr's Twitter rant

2018-05-29 Thread PGage
Agreed. This really was one of the most predictable melt-downs of the Trump
Era (perhaps the only thing more predictable is that Trump himself will
melt down three times a week). I saw two or three stories today about why
ABC was able to move to fast on this - they all implied that they had
anticipated something like this might happen and may even have had several
components of the response pre-positioned. But what I did not read was what
I really suspect must be true - that they had some kind of special
insurance policy out on her for just this kind of thing. I wonder if
somehow pulling the plug quickly helped Disney/ABC demonstrate that the end
of the show was directly caused by Roseanne’s instability, and not other
factors (i.e. political). If not that, then at least having a pretty big
insurance policy may have made it easier for ABC to pull the plug so easily
(though losing the #3 show still has to hurt).

I only met her once, briefly, at an awards show. I did not get an
unpleasant vibe from her, but I didn't get to chat with her for very long.

I wonder if she likes "The Great Escape"?

Neither the right nor the left are served by Maher being on the air. And
fans of humor definitely don’t benefit. Those who openly discriminate
against Muslims benefit by Maher staying on the air... expect to see

 The previously scheduled Roseanne repeat was pulled (on the East Coast at 
least) for a rerun of The Middle.
Vulture (and I'm sure others) are reporting that reruns of the show on cable 
and streaming networks are getting pulled a la The Cosby Show.

 I believe Rosanne is mentally ill - that is not based on her racist comments, 
and may in many respects be unrelated to her racist comments. It is just true I 
think (I don’t mean that in my professional judgement she is mentally ill, but 
that I think she has been judged mentally ill by examining professionals). 
 This is relevant not as an excuse for her comments, but as the reason why she 
probably is not stable enough to be in the high powered glare of a top rated 
broadcast TV show. As I have noted here previously, it is a shame because she 
really is a talented comic, and has a much-needed voice in many respects. I was 
hoping she would be well enough to do the White House Corrospondent’s Gig next 
year (I suppose she still might, though I hope her friends help her make some 
good decisions for herself). 
 I don’t care about the show, and the Trump Resistance will be played out in 
more important arenas than this. I do care about Roseanne Barr as a person, and 
this is the kind of thing that could knock her over the edge.

2018-05-29 Thread Steve Timko
Being racist doesn't qualify you as mentally ill, but my sense is Roseanne
is not racist 24/7. It oozes out of her when she cycles into a mental
illness phase. Like maybe she is off her meds or developed resistance to
them.

2018-05-29 Thread PGage
Wow, this was a rapidly advancing story - seems like less than 12 hours
from racist tweet to show cancellation.

I believe Rosanne is mentally ill - that is not based on her racist
comments, and may in many respects be unrelated to her racist comments. It
is just true I think (I don’t mean that in my professional judgement she is
mentally ill, but that I think she has been judged mentally ill by
examining professionals).

This is relevant not as an excuse for her comments, but as the reason why
she probably is not stable enough to be in the high powered glare of a top
rated broadcast TV show. As I have noted here previously, it is a shame
because she really is a talented comic, and has a much-needed voice in many
respects. I was hoping she would be well enough to do the White House
Corrospondent’s Gig next year (I suppose she still might, though I hope her
friends help her make some good decisions for herself).

I don’t care about the show, and the Trump Resistance will be played out in
more important arenas than this. I do care about Roseanne Barr as a person,
and this is the kind of thing that could knock her over the edge.

Racism is better classified as stupidity rather than mental illness.

Then again, when Wanda Sykes thinks you’ve crossed the line, you’ve got to
reevaluate your grasp on reality.
