The Bad News and The Good News
The bad news: You may be seeing more of the mentally unhinged Roseanne Barr on television.
Roseanne Barr is looking to return to primetime.
The star of ABC’s long-running sitcom has teamed with one of the “Roseanne” producers, Caryn Mandabach, for a family comedy in which she would play the matriarch.
Jim Vallely (“Arrested Development”) is attached to pen the script for the project, which has been pitched to Fox. He would executive produce with Mandabach, Maggie Rowe and Barr.
After her eponymous sitcom ended its nine-year run in 1997, Barr fronted a syndicated talk show and a reality series for ABC. Now she’s returning to her scripted comedy roots.
The good news: she might have less time to blog.
Update: Speaking of which, here is how she has blogged this latest news:
premature press ejaculation on the sitcom
Class act.
