In related news, producers may not have given up on the show just yet and are mulling various ways to salvage the contracts of the program’s other actors, EW reports: “Here’s the challenge, though: Roseanne was created by Roseanne Barr. The characters were conceived by her and Matt Williams. If the sitcom were to continue without the matriarch, the actress would still benefit financially. So a key insider informs EW that discussions will continue today on whether it makes sense to keep the other actors but potentially design a new series around them”
