Roseanne Barr Reveals Why a 'Roseanne' Revival Didn't Happen Sooner

Roseanne Barr and the cast of the Rosanne revival are celebrating the show’s long awaited premiere!

The 65-year-old actress stepped out for a panel discussion about the show on Monday night (March 26) at The Paley Center for Media in New York City.

She was also joined by her co-stars John Goodman, Michael Fishman, Lecy Goranson and Sarah Chalke.

During the discussion, Roseanne spilled on the previous attempts to revive the beloved show.

“We did talk about a reunion show a lot a really time ago. We wondered if we should do a clip show and I didn’t want to do a clip show. I said we would want to do some new, original sketches and they thought a clip show was better,” Roseanne explained.

Roseanne premieres on Tuesday, March 27th at 8 PM on ABC.
