Sarah Gilbert, who plays 65-year-old Barr's on-screen daughter Darlene, and serves as executive producer on the show, is especially fed up, according to the insider.
'The two have been going at it over creative differences, particularly when it comes to political dialogue that is in the script,' the anonymous informant shared.
Radar's source said: 'Nothing has changed with her and she is just as difficult now as she was then.'
Neither Barr nor Gilbert, 43, has addressed reports of creative differences.
Barr did recently address Trump's claims he's to thank for high ratings for the show's premiere, though. Speaking with TMZ on the matter, she said: 'It's all me.'
Her statement came after Trump said during an Ohio campaign rally: 'I got a call from Mark Burnett, he did The Apprentice, he's a great guy. He said, "Donald, I called just to say hello, and to tell you: Did you see Roseanne's ratings?" I said, "Mark, how big were they?"
'They were unbelievable! Over 18 million people! And it was about us! They haven't figured it out! The fake news hasn't quite figured it out yet...But they will, and when they do, they'll become much less fake.'
The show's premiere was watched by about 25 million viewers.

Her mom was also married to Bruce Boxenleitner ( not her daddy) who is a conservative, she divorced him...
When I first met Sarah Gilbert she was exceptionally rude and helped herself to things (the bar) without asking. I learned later she was offended I had not recognized her as an actress.
Tonight, I believe, is #3 of only 9 programs left in her show contract.
I have recorded the entire series to help her numbers, so long as the fairness is there toward Trump and his agenda.
8 PM (EST) - ABC.
“Her statement came after Trump said during an Ohio campaign rally: ‘I got a call from Mark Burnett, he did The Apprentice, he’s a great guy. He said, “Donald, I called just to say hello, and to tell you: Did you see Roseanne’s ratings?” I said, “Mark, how big were they?”
‘They were unbelievable! Over 18 million people! And it was about us! They haven’t figured it out! The fake news hasn’t quite figured it out yet...But they will, and when they do, they’ll become much less fake.’”
Where in that statement does he take credit for the show’s high ratings like its being stated? The show WAS about him. I’m sure if it wasn’t the ratings would have tanked... but he never actually claimed credit for the ratings.
Just an observation.
“Itd be a real shame if Sarahs character contracted aids and died.”
She’s not gay on the show. Has two kids, and said, “I’m not gay”, twice.
“Her mom was also married to Bruce Boxenleitner”
Sara’s sister, Melissa, was married to Bruce Boxleitner. And, IIRC, I think they’re not really biological sisters — even half-sisters. Both girls had a parent who were together at some point in time. Sara never was a “Gilbert”, but took the Gilbert name, probably to piggy-back on Melissa’s success. (At least, that’s what I recall.)
Her son is gay/transvestite 11 yr old.
lol - perfect pic
You don’t mess with Granny.
I can’t stand Gilbert. She looks like death before the warm over. Her real life “wife” (or “husband” or whatever) looks like something out of a B-rated zombie movie.
Do you Know where I can find one?
Really pushy for a skank.
They really do think what they do is important and that it is art. They dont realize that its just a way for viewers to participate in a half hour of brainless activity and for it the are rewarded with obnoxious amounts of money that allows them to spend the rest of their life telling the viewers how they should live.
I suggest a test....edit some of the shows in the can and start making snide, negative comments about the president, ala Colbert, Bee, etc. Just watch the ratings head south.
Try starting with two women, one a prog and the other an ex-prog who hasn’t learned not to argue with progs yet.
The fur is sure to fly!
D’oh I messed that up...
” ‘Nothing has changed with her and she is just as difficult now as she was then.’”
Well, dingbat, do it without her then.
That’ll show everyone how right you are.
“Her son is gay/transvestite 11 yr old.”
Actually, that hasn’t been determined. He was just a weird kid that liked to dress in a skirt because it was flamboyant. He wasn’t trying to look like a woman (transvestite) nor did he say he liked boys (gay)... I actually thought they handled that better than I expected.
I fast forwarded every time she was on the show. Her sanctimonious lectures were annoying. Bet this show goes lib within a month.
I am sure they are working the scripts. The problem now is that political jokes being written today are not relevant when they start filming.
