How long until fox announces that it picked this up to air before or after last man standing?

I was going to badly joke that now let's hope for Fox to cancel the Trump show in response to one of his tweets but sadly this is more realistic.

"we have decided to cancel her show" is very pointed too. They usually go more neutral, that's directly at her.

Problem is its an ensemble comedy and you can be sure at least some of that ensemble doesn't want anything to do with this. And that draws a line for the rest.

Roseanne (the show) is dead.

edit: I'd expect more of these to come.

I guarantee that not only was the cast primed to revolt, but Kenya Barris and Nanatchka Kahn raised holy hell as well. Both of their shows got burned by that lovely “They’re just like us” joke, and not only did ABC let that pass, she has the making GBS threads nerve to call a black woman an ape? Uh uh. She doesn’t get to do that.

PLUS Barris is thisclose to jumping ship to Netflix, and while Shonda Rhimes already has jumped ship, she’s still diligently working on Grey’s Anatomy for them. They definitely had pull if they wanted to use it.

I'm really annoyed that Netflix is moving to the half season model. Being able to binge watch their shows was a big part of the appeal in the first place. I can see why it makes sense for them to do it though, both because of Emmy's and wanting people to subscribe for more months.

Eh, practically it doesn't change much. If you want to wait you can and binge it all at once. For me the appeal of binging is just that I can digest a "complete" set quickly. If the half seasons feel complete then I'm as good with it as I am for a "full season."

The Tick's split annoyed me enough that I haven't checked out the second half yet. The first half just felt very incomplete and unsatisfying and left me on a bad note. That's the key. You gotta treat your half season as a season and give your audience proper satisfaction.

Try the back half, because I think it was a lot stronger (due in large part to a guest star), but if you don't like it don't bother with 3 imo.

I think it's the last season, too? So on top of awards consideration it makes sense to pad it out a bit, I guess.

I hate when shows do the last season in two parts tho ffs. But at least we get a whole half each time instead of weekly + a wait between halves.

Actually it’s because Tina Fey had to put production on hold so she could get Mean Girls up and running on Broadway.

I assume she owns at least some rights to the show since the season ending would have made it super easy to kill her character off screen. It sucks that the rest of the cast lost their jobs because shes an idiot

I would laugh my rear end off if they all die in the end and we get post-death narration over a montage of all the people who died over the course of the show's run, and the last line is "it turns out we were all the Walking Dead."

The talent agency that represents Roseanne has also dropped her.
