Never said he was trading handjobs for meth, but i'm pretty sure he could squeeze in a leading role on a hit TV show between his roles as "teen in van" and as camerman on "Rockin' With Roseann"
This Michael Fishman white knighting might be the weirdest derail I've ever been involved in

John Goodman says 'The Conners' is 'great' without Roseanne Barr
He spent the whole summer and fall saying how horrible it was without her. Got to love Hollywood where when you get the call you do a complete 180 back flip no scope.

Early on the show, the show was a must have for ABC now it has under 50% the ratings of Roseanne
on the path to be just another middling ABC show.
so in his best interest to play nice now
- side note
ABC is now in 4th place of the networks
down 18.5% in the 18-49 Demo and 11% in total viewers from fall 2017

Well, I mean, they fucked up.
Roseanne was always a show about white trash middle america. This makes it pretty much a Republican show. And that was always a little bit weird. They've tried to use it as a platform for something else, and it flat out don't fit. And it's not like that was a surprise. Roseanne herself made the same mistake. It's why her final season where she won the lottery fell so flat. I stopped watching that season personally, but I expect that in hindsight she might have had a few things to say about striking it rich that were probably worth listening to and probably came from the heart in some strangely distored autobiographical way. Ain't nobody wants to hear it though, then or now.
The best case for John Goodman is to refuse the pay cut and walk away.

he will take the cut if they want him to. if he's the sole holdout then it makes him look like a greedy asshole and might anger The Mouse.
Pixar payday will make up for it. Sully is probably his most commercially successful role of all time.

Making it about a family that barley functions, lives paycheck to paycheck, and struggles to make the right choices doesn't make it Republican; it makes it relatable to more than half the fucking country.
People from all walks of life appreciated the honesty of the show and thst it was unapologetically working class. Equating white trash to Republican is hysterical since all the true white trash rednecks are Democrat since they don't want to lose their free shit. The Repubs that liked the Connor family was happy to see a struggling family that paid their fucking taxes.
