ABC reportedly thinking about ‘Roseanne’ spin-off show without Barr

Just days after canceling “Roseanne,” ABC executives are reportedly looking for a way to reboot the show yet again possibly with some kind of spin-off.

The network pulled the plug on the sitcom after Roseanne Barr tweeted bizarre rants and racist comments about former Obama aide Valerie Jarrett.


Now, some insiders say ABC is in preliminary talks to bring a version of the “Roseanne” show back, without her.

The move could employ the more than 250 crew members and cast who lost their jobs after the sudden cancellation.

However, a source with knowledge of the matter says a new show deal could be complicated because of the terms of Barr’s contract.
