I concur - in her heyday with the first iteration of the Rosanne show, she struck a blow for the working person and pilloried corporate types who needed it. And every so often she goes off into a strange destructive world that sets her way back, career-wise. Not sure what it does to her personal life. There have been other strange detours that I remember somewhat but am not going to research for this post.

I also feel sorry for Smollet, he seems to have some major thinking problems if he actually calculated that kind of stunt was going to work in his favor. There seems to be mental illness involved. Now the whole program he was trying to extort for a higher salary could crash, if he thoroughly ruined the reputation (though it is still FOX's third ranking show, they've been known to ditch the good ones for corporate reasons.)
