John Goodman's Response To The Cancellation Of 'Roseanne' Reminds Us Why He's A National Treasure

Chances are that John Goodman is one of your favorite actor’s favorite actors. With a career spanning over three decades and a litany of classic, beloved roles under his belt (The Big Lebowski, Monsters Inc, Roseanne, Raising Arizona, Argo, Flight, etc) John Goodman is to acting what apple pie is to America.
However, unfortunately for John (and his wallet_, one of his most recent (and also one of his oldest?) roles got undone by some racist tweets from its star, Roseanne Barr. In case you’ve been living under a rock these last couple of days, ole’ Roseanne got a little too frisky on Twitter, posting some wildly repugnant, racist tweets about Valerie Jarrett, an African-American woman who was a senior adviser to President Barack Obama. Barr wrote — on TWITTER remind you — if the “muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj.”
Anyway, ABC was quick to cancel TF out of her show, stating that her Twitter statement is “abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values.” In an even bolder move, Barr tried to blame the fact that she was “on Ambien” when she sent those tweets, the makers of Ambien were quick to remind her that racism is not, in fact, a side-effect of the sleep aid drug.


While seeing Roseanne finally get what she deserves was admittedly enjoyable, it’s a bummer that our boy J Goody had to lose a paycheck. But, because he’s John Goodman, he’s taking the show’s cancellation in stride, saying he “wasn’t gonna get an Emmy anyway.”
John Goodman, what a savage. Also, f*ck Roseanne Barr. Byeeeee Felicia.
