'The Conners': John Goodman commends Roseanne Barr for giving up a lot to make 'Roseanne' spin-off happen

In a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday night, Goodman took to complimenting Barr for denouncing her financial stake in the Roseanne franchise.

Roseanne Barr might have sabotaged her own career with regards to the reboot of her highly popular ABC sitcom, 'Roseanne', where she played the titular character, but her on-screen husband from the show, John Goodman, seems to have only positive things to share about her. According to Goodman, the very reason behind ABC's upcoming spin-off on Roseanne, called 'The Conners' speaks volumes about the positive perks in Barr's character.

In a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Monday night, Goodman took to complimenting Barr for denouncing her financial stake in the Roseanne franchise just so the spin-off could be created even after she was fired by ABC for her distasteful racist comments towards former Obama advisor, Valerie Jett.
