Roseanne Barr reflects on her tumultuous journey since the cancellation of her show, stating, “I’ve survived. I’ve come out on the other side of it, finally. But it was a witch-burning. And it was terrifying.”

In 2018, her rebooted show “Roseanne” faced abrupt termination after she tweeted a racially charged comment about Valerie Jarrett. ABC swiftly fired her, rebranded the show as “The Conners,” and killed off her character.

Barr feels ostracized by ABC, expressing, “Oh my God, they just hated me so badly… They hate me because I have talent, because I have an opinion.”

Feeling abandoned by Hollywood, Barr highlights the discrepancy in treatment compared to other comedians like Dave Chappelle and Louis C.K., who faced controversies but continued their careers.

Despite the turmoil, Barr claims to have forgiven everyone and sees her dismissal as a blessing in disguise. She returns to TV with a new comedy special, acknowledging her rocky past with humor.
