I had to pause for a second there when I typed "Barr." I don't do a lot of stories about Roseanne Barr so I'm not used to typing her name, so I had to think for a moment, is she called Barr again? There was a time there she went as Roseanne Arnold, and while she's obviously not going by that name again, I was wondering if she was still just going by the name Roseanne like she did for a while there. But it is indeed Barr again.

She hasn't done any regular prime time in many years, but the comedienne is planning to make a comeback to the world of sitcoms in a new comedy that will be produced by Caryn Mandabach (who was one of the producers on Roseanne) and will be written by Jim Vallely, who was a producer and writer for Arrested Development, My Wife and Kids, The Geena Davis Show, and Action.

Interesting that Mandabach will be producing the new show. We've heard so many stories about what it was like behind the scenes of Roseanne that I wouldn't be surprised if no one wanted to work with her again, but obviously not everyone has bad memories of how it was. It was a great show for a while there. Let's not even think about that last season with the whole "it's a dream" plot, the lottery win, and Dan's death.
