Roseanne Barr may have been ousted from Roseanne, but it sounds like her racist tweet does not spell the end of her career. 

The disgraced comedian spoke to Rabbi Shmuley Boteach in a new podcast and opened up the offers she received following the scandal that got her show canceled.  

"Inside every bad thing is a good thing waiting to happen, and I feel very excited because I've already been offered so many things and I almost already accepted one really good offer to go back on TV, and I might do it," she said. "But we'll see."

Roseanne Barr Attends Event

While Roseanne is over, the storylines for every character aside Roseanne will continue in a spinoff of the show titled The Conners, which is slated to debut this fall on ABC with the original cast set to return. 

There were strings attached to the spinoff coming to fruition, and ABC was adamant about making sure Barr did not get creative input in the series or gain any financial profit.

"I didn't ask to be paid off," Barr continued in the podcast.

"I asked for nothing, and I just stepped away... because that is penance. I put a lot of thought into it."

Barr recently spoke out when ABC opted to order The Conners to series and seemed remorseful for her actions.

"I agreed to the settlement in order that 200 jobs of beloved cast and crew could be saved, and I wish the best for everyone involved."

Roseanne was one of few success stories during the 2017-18 season. It emerged as one of the highest rated scripted shows on all of TV, prompting ABC to place an order for an expanded season.

However, the brakes were put on the second season in late May when Roseanne compared Valerie Jarrett to an ape. Despite apologizing, the damage was done and ABC nixed the second season of the show. 

“Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show,” said ABC president, Channing Dungey in a statement last month.

There's been a lot of back and forth since then, with Roseanne initially opting to blast her co-stars who sided with ABC's decision to pull the plug on the series. 

However, she later changed course, apologizing for what she did.
