Roseanne Barr's racist tweet didn't just get the Roseannerevival canceled. It got old Roseanneyanked from the TV schedule,Glori-Anne Gilbert Archives too.
SEE ALSO: Roseanne Barr leaves Twitter after racist tirade, Wanda Sykes quits 'Roseanne'TheWrap reports that reruns of Roseannewill be removed from Viacom networks – Paramount Network, TV Land, and CMT – starting Wednesday. There's no word yet on what will replace the programming.
UPDATE:Hulu has also decided to remove Roseannefrom its programming, according to a spokesperson who talked to The Hollywood Reporter. The show is still available on Amazon Prime, at least for the time being.
Roseanne, which was revived earlier in 2018 after 21 years off the air, imploded this morning after Barr posted an offensive tweet about former White House advisor Valerie Jarrett.
Barr later apologized and said she was leaving Twitter. But it was too little, too late.
Within a matter of hours, Roseanneproducer Wanda Sykes announced she was quitting; ABC issued a statement decrying Barr's "abhorrent" comments and confirming the cancellation of her series; and talent agency ICM Partners dropped Barr as a client.
Meanwhile, Barr's co-workers spoke out against her on social media.

Given all that, it seems no wonder that the new Roseannewas canceled. Old Roseanneis a different situation, as critics like Emily Nussbaum have pointed out — but it makes sense that Viacom and other companies would want to avoid being associated with Barr at this point in time.
Controversy is nothing new for Barr, who's been tweeting hateful and bigoted things on social media for years. She propagated the Pizzagate conspiracy theory, for example, and falsely accused a Parkland survivor of giving a Nazi salute.
Nevertheless, ABC's bet on Barr initially seemed to pay off. The first episode of the Roseannerevival saw such monster ratings that the network saw fit to renew the show within a matter of days.
But if the network was hoping Barr would tone down her social media hate-mongering — or if they were simply hoping audiences and critics would get tired and move on — they were out of luck. And now they're out of time.
