The show dropped over 30% in ratings by the end of the season. They are going to lose cast and crew because she couldn’t just shut her mouth. The pay the remaining cast and Roseanne would want is too much for any major network to want to pay for just to have decent ratings.
The show is dead and good riddance. That fat slob got what she deserved and I hope we never hear from her again.
The show was ranked (for the season) number 2 behind This Is Us, forget the drop which should be expected as this was a reboot/new series release, but when you are the number 2 series on TV, there is significant value, this was the Rights show, I didn't watch it and couldn't care less what happens but shows with this level of success get picked up usually, the tweet may be too toxic but if a network (Fox) is willing to overlook it they will pick this show up.
