"Roseanne: Kicked Out of Hollywood" explores the controversy that led to Roseanne Barr's fall from grace.

The 69-year-old comedian spent the documentary explaining her reasoning behind the tweet that led to the swift cancellation of her revived sitcom "Roseanne." Barr called her firing a "witch-burning" and claimed that she had been having issues with ABC regarding everything she tweeted.

"Any tweet that was not ‘I love Hillary Clinton,' I got a call for," Barr claimed during the Reelz documentary, which is set to air on April 24.

The documentary touched on the time Barr tweeted about a conspiracy theory that a Parkland school shooting survivor had given a Nazi salute at a rally for stricter gun control in the U.S.

Valerie Jarrett has no eyelids.

Neither do lizards.

This was a classic SNL skit Rosanne did.

Obama’s handler Valerie Jarrett told Obama when to go watch ESPN, when to take his drugs, when to go to his fundraiser practice sessions.

When Obama left the White House, Obama’s handler Valerie Jarrett moved in the same house with Obama and his wife.

Barr is a pig. Remember her shameful national anthem? Filthy, disgusting pig.

[dragnet2]

She played the pig role well. All an act to be disgusting as possible, for easily entertained, man haters and those drooling in cups.

Last time I saw a mouth like that it had a hook in it.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Can’t believe no one remembers this. She became hated because she backed Trump.

[conservative98]

Her show was cancelled after she made the tweet. Because orange man bad.

[rottweiller_inc]

So she admits to being a witch.

[TBP]

True. Some network ought to give her a show.

[TBP]

Those episodes had been taped before she got canned.

The New York Post headlined it ROSEANNE BARR-F.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

They were doing a parody of a real commercial for a major credit card but I can’t remember which one.

Looks like one of the telepathic mutants from "Beneath the Planet of the Apes," if you ask me!

Gilbert, who played Barr’s daughter on the show, condemned Barr’s tweet. “Roseanne’s recent comments about Valerie Jarrett, and so much more, are abhorrent and do not reflect perfectly within her Constitutional Rights (1A) and the beliefs of our cast and crew or anyone associated with our show are our private concern and/or totally irrelevant,” she tweeted.
