Roseanne is planning to declare a jihad on intolerance for her next show.

From Entertainment Weekly:
Roseanne Barr hopes to teach tolerance and compassion in the next installment of her ABC sitcom.

On Tuesday’s episode of Roseanne, a Muslim family living next door to the Conners elicits such fear in Roseanne that she starts to believe they’re about to build a bomb out of fertilizer piled near their garage.



“What if this is a sleeper cell full of terrorists getting ready to blow up our neighborhood?” she asks her sister Jackie (Laurie Metcalf). “Any time something bad happens, it’s always somebody who lives next door to somebody.”

Ultimately, Roseanne is forced to face her prejudice by approaching the neighbors and asking for their Wi-Fi code to help her granddaughter. What transpires over the episode is lots of ignorance covered up in punchlines, with Roseanne ultimately realizing there is more to the folks next door than a pile of stinky dirt.

And it was all Barr’s idea. In this interstitial released by ABC, Dave Caplan, co-executive producer, confirms that it was the star’s idea to do a story about Muslim neighbors. He says the writers didn’t need much convincing. (ABC would not make the executive producers available for further comment).
Well, I guess that's the end of that. The show imploded in the ratings after people realized it's just more left-wing Hollywood drivel.

Here's the top comment on EW's article (which was linked to on Drudge):

"They should make the Muslim neighbors actually be terrorists and have Rosanne foil their plot to blow up the neighborhood. That would be more realistic."
