Blu-ray Verdict: For years, the legendary Roseanne Barr was America’s most popular and beloved comedian. Her groundbreaking TV show, Roseanne, revived working class humor and earned legions of fans for America’s domestic goddess.
Often political, Roseanne fearlessly addressed the issues of family, class, race, gender, and gay rights. In 2012, Roseanne Barr even ran for president. The Roseanne Show was number in the 1990s and revived in 2018 with excellent ratings.
However, when Roseanne posted a tweet about the Iran nuclear deal and Obama ally Valerie Jarrett, the lifelong civil rights activist was promptly accused of racism over the misunderstood post. Roseanne and her show were abruptly canceled.
Having watched this documentary three times now, and not having always been a massive fan of her Roseanne persona let alone other things that she was a part of, I have to say that I sat and listened; the need to laugh not required, but the need to remain open minded and non-judgmental for sure the way to go into this viewing.
Telling us everything about her, from her upbringing as an Orthodox Jewish girl raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, claiming to have seen a vision growing up that told her she would have her own show on TV called Roseanne, her infamous National Anthem singing moment, along with her run in 2012 to become President of The United States to the moment when she became outspoken enough that Bob Iger, chief executive officer (CEO) of the Walt Disney Company had his hand forced to exact an immediate show cancellation.
