Wakes Up in a Closet
Hey @ABCNetwork how about a spinoff where John Goodman wakes up in a closet because Roseanne was eaten by tigers at the zoo, and he imagined her as a racist pos to help with the pain of his loss? We'll call it "Dan"...

"Hey [ABC] how about a spinoff where John Goodman wakes up in a closet because Roseanne [Barr] was eaten by tigers at the zoo, and he imagined her as a racist [expletive] to help with the pain of his loss? We'll call it 'Dan'."
Points for creativity for the "eaten by tigers at the zoo part.
prevnextBurrs Love John Goodman
Burrs would totally watch a show starring John Goodman.
Especially if they replaced Roseanne with a new HusBurr.

Burrs could be the new vampires.
prevnextA nod to Big Lebowski
I hate that Roseanne took the livelihoods of cast and crew she didn't speak for with her. Can we just rebrand the show "Dan" and have John Goodman hang out with Jeff Bridges, slowly transitioning the whole thing to a Big Lebowski TV run?

Bring Jeff Bridges to our televisions now.

They could totally have all the Roseanne cast do a Jackie show ~ Jackie & Dan wake up in bed, right? Jackie goes omg baby I just had the most upfucked dream ever! You were married to this horrible woman and she was my sister. Dan goes wait you have a sister?

Give them all the Emmys.
prevnextTies to Russia
ABC should write Roseanne out of Roseanne. Make a spinoff show with John Goodman as the lead and call it Dan.
In the show, Roseanne's absence is explained that she was a Russian spy all along.

Barr's live-tweets for this spinoff would be crazy.
prevnextBring in Bette
Bette Midler (who can also be brash and loud) takes over for Roseanne Barr as her abrasive Aunt Betty who moves in and invests in Dan's business idea... Roseanne was stolen by 'the Gypsies'... that's something she might say...

Somebody call Midler's manager, this will run for years.
prevnextWidowed Grandpa
@RoseanneOnABC Keep the show, kill off Rosanne's character. Rename the show "The Connors". Focus the story around Darlene, Becky, DJ acc their families along with a widowed Grandpa Dan. #ProblemSolved #Roseanne

"Keep the show, kill off Rosanne's character. Rename the show [The Conners]. Focus the story around Darlene, Becky, DJ [and] their families along with a widowed Grandpa Dan."
Roseanne did have episodes with heavy moments, but this might be too dark for a family sitcom.
prevnextDream Twist
@ABCNetwork Ok, hear me out. Dan wakes up and realizes he’s been dreaming about #Roseanne, who’s been dead for years. Those were some crazy dreams! Everyone goes along with their lives, happy and full of positive human interactions. Roseanne is never mentioned again. #DanShow

Kind of a Kevin Can Wait nod but even more savage, this one is a winner.
prevnextJimmy Kimmel pitches in
The late night talk show host debuted a fake trailer for his own Roseanne spinoff featuring Goodman as the lead.
"We don't have much on this network. We're hoping the NBA finals goes 11 games this year," Kimmel joked. "We're still airing America's Funniest Home Videos. Roseanne was very 'bigly' hit for ABC, and we needed it."
