Roseanne Barr, famed for her starring role in the seminal sitcom Roseanne and her outspoken public personality, claims she plans to take action against those involved with the spinoff series The Conners.
"I have the time now to research and come up with the perfect lawsuit," Barr said on Quarantined with Norm Macdonald. "**** over everybody in the ******* world over there."
Roseanne, which originally ran from 1988-1997, was revived in March 2018. However, a racist tweet by Barr directed at Obama administration official Valerie Jarrett prompted ABC to cancel the series just two months later, despite already renewing it for more seasons.
A spinoff series called The Conners was greenlit shortly after and in the pilot episode, it was revealed Barr's character died offscreen of a drug overdose, which was a recurring plot point in the Roseanne revival.
The Conners stars John Goodman, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, Lecy Goranson, Michael Fishman, Emma Kenney, Ames McNamara, Jayden Rey and Maya Lynne Robinson. The series ran for two seasons on ABC and has yet to be renewed for a possible third season.
