Roseanne is under fire for a joke.

During Tuesday’s episode (April 3), Roseanne (Roseanne Barr) and Dan (John Goodman) fall asleep in front of the TV, sleeping “from Wheel to Kimmel.”

“We missed all the shows about black and Asian families,” Dan says to Roseanne.

“They’re just like us. There, now you’re all caught up,” Roseanne responds.

The joke prompted many responses from social media, including one from Master Of None actor and Bob’s Burgers writer Kelvin Yu.

“Here’s why the Roseanne joke about ‘missing all the shows about Black and Asian families’ matters. At the very least, it’s reductive and belittling, as if to say those shows are nothing more than ‘Black’ and ‘Asian’ in their existence. But the real kicker is when Roseanne says: ‘They’re just like us. There, now you’re all caught up.’ Which implies that the point of any show about a minority family is simply to normalize them. That’s it. The stories, the humor, the characters … not important,” he wrote.

“Then you take ALLLLLL of that and put it in the mouth of an avowed Trump supporter (not the actress — the CHARACTER of Roseanne) and you have one stinky little s–t sandwich of a joke that ABC allowed to be served in their own restaurant. It’s a big deal.”

Former Fresh Off The Boat writer Kourtney Kang also responded in a guest column for The Hollywood Reporter.

“In these jokes, and in the others like these, at the heart of them, whether the joke-teller means it or not, is a divisive spirit. ‘Us.’ ‘Them.’ It’s always drawing lines. Separating. Whenever these jokes have been said to me, the thing that is the most hurtful is not the insensitive dullard who said it. There’s always going to be people like that. What hurts the most is when everyone else in the room laughs,” she wrote.

During the discussion, Roseanne spilled on the previous attempts to revive the beloved show.

“We did talk about a reunion show a lot a really time ago. We wondered if we should do a clip show and I didn’t want to do a clip show. I said we would want to do some new, original sketches and they thought a clip show was better,” Roseanne explained.

Roseanne premieres on Tuesday, March 27th at 8 PM on ABC.

During her appearance, Roseanne discussed her 2012 presidential run, being the “original crazy tweeter,” being a former friend of Hillary Clinton‘s, supporting Donald Trump, how they tackle politics on the show, and she reveals how she feels about the state of our country.

“It’s up to us to make this government work, no matter who’s president. It’s up to us to do our jobs as citizens, and if we don’t like something, let ‘em know you don’t like it. And then you get another election in two years – get out there and vote. Change it if you don’t like it,” she said.

Roseanne Barr is getting real about how her politics will impact the upcoming Roseanne revival.

The 65-year-old actress stepped out at the show’s panel at the 2018 Winter TCA Tour on Monday (January 8) at The Langham Huntington in Pasadena, Calif.

She was joined by the cast including John Goodman, Michael Fishman, Laurie Metcalf, Lecy Goranson, Sarah Chalke, Ames McNamera, Emma Kenney and Jayden Rey.

During the panel, Roseanne explained why her character on the show is a Donald Trump supporter.

“In The Rosanne Show, I’ve always tried to have it be a true reflection of the society we live in. I feel like half the people voted for Trump and half didn’t, so it’s just realistic. And, in fact, it was working-class people who elected Trump, so I felt like that was very real and something that needed to be discussed and especially about polarization in the family and people actually hating other people for the way they voted, which I feel is not American,” she said.

Roseanne Barr and John Goodman make an appearance together on stage at the 2018 Golden Globe Awards held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday (January 7) in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The former Roseanne co-stars will be starring together in the revival of their series, coming to ABC in March.

Roseanne and John presented the award for Best Television Series – Drama and she joked about being someone who is “known for creating some great drama.” John replied, “Yeah, not the kind you get awards for.”
