Roseanne Barr and her former co-star Michael Fishman are renewing their public feud over the 2018 “Roseanne” reboot’s cancellation. The dispute follows Fishman’s recent remarks that the series was “rightfully canceled,” which he said amid ongoing discussion of Barr’s actions and their consequences.
Barr responds by disputing Fishman’s characterization and addresses his comments in connection with the broader controversy surrounding the reboot’s end. Multiple outlets report that Barr’s reaction includes strong personal language directed at Fishman, and the renewed exchange brings earlier cancellation-related context back into focus, including Barr’s previous social media posts that were tied to public backlash and the show’s removal from ABC’s schedule.
While Fishman frames the outcome as justified, Barr presents a different view of the cancellation and the reasons behind it. Coverage from both outlets emphasizes that their ongoing disagreement continues to play out through interviews, podcasts, and public statements rather than any resolution between the two.
