The topical Downwardly Mobile will be written and executive-produced by Barr and Eric Gilliland, who also worked on the much-revered Roseanne sitcom on ABC. Read more here. The outspoken Barr brought LGBT issues to the American public on Roseanne and often espouses her liberal views on talk shows and Twitter.
