They can do what they want. Nobody is going to watch the show.

[LeonardFMason]

Shot to death by a crazed LIBERAL DEMOCRAT at a softball practice?

[SkyDancer]

By a muzzie attack or they go to Chicago on a trip and .....

[riri]

The neighbors across the street?

[clintonh8r]

Never watched the original one, didn’t watch the revival, won’t watch the re-boot.

I hope the whole thing flops.

The Conners will be DOA. Roseanne was the show.

[EQAndyBuzz]

It’s going to be an overdose on opioids. It will get a powerful signal out there about the opioid epidemic and kill off the Trump supporter.

They cannot write it any more beautifully.

[Anti-Bubba182]

They just killed off the show and it deserves to die without Roseanne.

[freedom1st]

Roseanne Barr’s tweet about Jarrett was not racist.

[mountn man]

The Conners will feature the rest of the Roseanne revival cast. Along with Goodman as Dan, Laurie Metcalf (“Jackie”), Sara Gilbert (“Darlene”), Lecy Goranson (“Becky”) and Michael Fishman (“D.J.”) will reprise their Conner characters.

If it wasn’t for Roseanne Barr in the first place, the reboot would have never happened.
Now they’re going to make gobs of money (for a short while)
riding solely on Roseannes coat tails.
While she gets kicked to the curb.

[kempster]

I can hardly wait to not watch it.

[a fool in paradise]

Shot by a Bernie Bro socialist justice war-rior no doubt.

[a fool in paradise]

Killed by Cousin Oliver of the Brady Bunch.

[a fool in paradise]

Shark jump that went wrong

[a fool in paradise]

it was all a dream and John Goodman wakes up in the shower with his gay husband

[MileHi]

...Barr’s character will be killed off in the upcoming The Conners spinoff.

Along with the franchise.

[a fool in paradise]

ABCDisney deserves to fail. Walt wouldn’t recognize the place.

Only a decade or so before China buys it all anyway.

I have no intention of watching the show anyway, but it seems kind of hacky to do the old “killed of” routine. What I would love to see in one of these shows where the main character leaves, is all the other characters go on like that character is still there. That is to say every character still yells “hello” to mom who is supposedly in the next room and mumbles something unintelligible back and the only thing you ever see onscreen is a brief flash of their back as they walk by. When anybody asks where they are, it's always something like “on the phone” “in the bathroom” “out shopping” etc. It would be funny and not as overused as the “dead” or “moved” clichés.
