Alert, alert, fans of the 90’s, nostalgia and the “Hebrew Priestess” herself, Roseanne Barr. There’s an upcoming eight-episode limited series reboot of “Roseanne” coming your way, Deadline reports.
All the major players are slotted to return, including Barr, John Goodman, Sara Gilbert and Laurie Metcalf. Multiple networks are currently bidding on the series, including ABC and Netflix, which is already been home to “Gilmore Girls” and “Full House” reboots.
Barr has already weighed in on Twitter, writing that the political climate will make for “some great jokes.”
of course I want to do a reboot of Roseanne-new political reality in our country will make for some great jokes!

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
