From the outside looking in, it's a bittersweet moment for the ABC sitcom "The Conners" and Roseanne Barr. Season 2 of the "Roseanne" spin-off show premieres on Tuesday, but if it weren't for Barr, would "The Conners" even exist?

"The Conners" came about after Barr was fired from the reboot of her hit self-titled ABC sitcom and the show was canceled, but that hasn't stopped the comedian from looking forward to the future. She recently kicked off the Mr. and Mrs. America Tour with fellow comedian Andrew Dice Clay.

"It's exciting because we’ve known each other for so long and we’ve never toured together,” the 66-year-old said about Clay per Deadline, adding that he convinced her to join him on the road. "Dice talked me into it. He goes, 'People are wanting to hear what you have to say.'"

And boy, did she have something to say. Barr opened up her set by addressing the ABC controversy.

"About a year and a half ago, the Roseanne reboot came on television and we got 28 million people to watch it," Barr said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. "So [expletive] Hollywood."

Before she set out on a comedy tour, though, the actress and television producer enhanced some of her physical assets.

"I did have one procedure where I got the fat sucked out of my stomach and put in my butt because I just wanted to see what it would be like to have some shape of my butt," Barr revealed to the Daily Mail, adding that next she would like to get some work done on her waist.

Roseanne Barr is on the Mr. and Mrs. American Tour currently and "The Conners" Season 2 airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC.
