Jerry Seinfeld: Roseanne Barr didn't need to be fired
- 6 years ago
Jerry Seinfeld doesn't believe it was "necessary" to fire Roseanne Barr from her eponymously titled sitcom following her racist tweets.
The 65-year-old TV star had her sitcom cancelled last month after she likened Valerie Jarrett, a former advisor of Barack Obama, to an ape, but now fellow comedian Jerry has said he doesn't think ABC needed to cancel the show and end Roseanne's career, as she was already "ruining" it for herself.
ABC recently confirmed that a spin-off show entitled 'The Conners' would be taking place without Roseanne, and while Jerry, approves of the idea, he thinks the character of Roseanne should return with a different actress in the role.
