TheWrap

Barr said on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast that unnamed network executives warned her not to say anything offensive or she'd lose her Roseanne residuals. “That’s kind of what killed the comedy thing for me. I was told that me getting in trouble one more time, I wouldn’t have my reruns anymore," she said, according to The Wrap. "And I live on that (income), you know?” she said. “I asked for it to be defined … They said, ‘You know what it means.'”
