In a statement, ABC president Channing Dungey said, “Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show.”

Though Barr apologized for the offensive comment, calling it a “bad joke,” consulting producer Wanda Sykes soon announced she would not return to Roseanne for Season 11.
In the light of the revival’s cancellation Tuesday, an ABC source tells TVLine the network won’t move forward with a For Your Consideration campaign focused on the Roseanne Barr-led series’ Season 10.
