- The 2018 reboot was canceled shortly after its premiere due to Barr's racist tweet about Valerie Jarrett, leading ABC to fire Barr and launch the spin-off "The Connors" without her involvement.
- Barr revealed she has not kept in touch with any former co-stars, expressing disappointment over how the show ended but wishing them well despite the fallout.
- She also declined a guest appearance on "The Connors," rejecting the idea of returning as a ghost on a show she feels was taken from her.
