Ever since her controversial departure from Hollywood, Roseanne Barr has been cooking up a new TV show. This time, she's blending comedy with a unique take on an American family. The series, co-written with her old pal Allan Stephan, follows a small-town Alabama farmer who fights crime and defends America with an unusual set of tools: guns, the Bible, and even some petty crimes. Barr promises the show will be a mix of her old hit series "Roseanne" and the drama "The Sopranos, " but with a twist. The farmer in her story isn't your typical corn grower; he's also growing and selling magic mushrooms and cannabis. Barr, who now lives on a farm in Hawaii, says the show is inspired by her own life. She warns that the content will be offensive to some and includes plenty of swearing. Despite possible controversy, Barr is ready to pitch the show around town. She's even prepared to produce it herself if Hollywood isn't interested. Barr believes the show will resonate with viewers who want to see working-class heroes. She's not expecting support from ABC, who fired her after a tweet controversy in 2018. Instead, she hopes Hollywood will listen to what viewers really want, as seen in the 2024 presidential election.
