Adios Roseanne

Adios, Roseanne



Roseanne's racist tweet caused big trouble

So she voiced remorse on the double

     The Trump-loving comic

     Appeared catatonic

Her hit show was tossed to the rubble



In secret she now keeps opinions

But where are Roseanne and her minions?

     Darlene, Dan and Jackie

     Each unemployed lackey

While Rosie's still worth eighty millions

Her hit show AND HER --- tossed to the rubble, and deservedly so... Nice limerick, Carolyn. P.S. Now that I think of it, we're lucky Roseanne is not the First Lady. She seems like the perfect fit for DJT. Can you picture the pitched battles those two would have? --- Better than Liz Taylor and Richard Burton in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf!" ~ Gershon

Carolyn, great limericks. The new show without her was a bit of a flop, they killed her off with an overdose of opiods, lol, apparently she is furious about ~

Love it. There is a lot of anger and hatred which was just waiting for a voice once our president was elected. Fortunately, not everyone is buying into it.

Brilliantly written Carolyn! Congratulations on your terrific third placement! I hated seeing that show cancelled. I loved seeing the political banter back and forth. I hope you are feeling much better. : )

Yours is a lovely witty double Limerick with a popular topic, Carolyn. Despite everything, Roseanne is laughing all the way to the bank! Hugs // paul
