Roseanne Barr will make her return to stand up comedy after nearly 20 years away from the microphone as part of a new special that will stream on Fox Nation, Fox News’s streaming service.
The hourlong special, titled “Cancel This!,” will be available to stream on Feb. 13, the Monday after the Super Bowl, after it was filmed in front of a live studio audience in Houston at the Cullen Theatre.
Barr, a controversial personality in comedy and noted supporter of former President Trump, had her popular sitcom “Roseanne” canceled and rebranded “The Conners” in 2018 after she tweeted racist comments about former Obama administration adviser Valerie Jarrett.

There was nothing ‘racist’ about her tweet. Valerie Jarret does have a resemblance to Kim Hunter, who happened to play an ape in Planet of the Apes.
She better be careful on the NeverTrump Network.
Woopsie Goldberg is never described as "a controversial personality in comedy."
Is she gonna scratch her balls again?
> she tweeted racist comments about former Obama administration adviser Valerie Jarrett.
Not true.
I watched it once because it happened to be on where I was (last year, I think.)
It was gross. I felt like I needed a shower after seeing those loser characters. And it was unfunny.
I cannot wait to miss it!!
Can’t wait!!
7 day free trials, for Fox Nation, here….
Try, before you commit to a subscription. Even though you can cancel, at any time.
Sometimes I wonder if Tucker is a major shareholder/owner, of FN.
Rosanne said signing the NDAA into law was the “death of comedy.” I don’t think she ever explained how that works. I can believe that the same people who want to fund government spying would apply pressure to get her fired (because she said she supported Trump) might like the NDAA, but I am not sure how the NDAA is directly related. Maybe she was thinking of the “Patriot” act?
Thanks for the ping.
