The much-hyped Roseanne sitcom reboot came crashing down earlier this week. All it took was one racist tweet from the official Roseanne Barr Twitter account to convince the executives at ABC-TV to cancel the high-rated show. Roseanne was quick to blame the sleep drug Ambien for her tweet. The Internet is having fun and joking about the whole situation. But one of the best bits we’ve seen is about a new sleep aid for racists called Roseambian. Enjoy!
