Roseanne doesn’t like Angelina Jolie, and she wants you to know about it.

The comedienne wrote a scathing blog on her web site, calling Jolie “evil spawn” and partner Brad Pitt “vacuous.” She seemed most offended by what she saw as Jolie’s hypocrisy with supporting John McCain for president.

“Miss Jolie says she likes McCain too and hasn’t decided who to endorse….huh?” Roseanne wrote. “Aren’t you supposed to be somewhat enlightened, or do you not know that the African daughter you hold in every picture had parents who suffered and died because of the Republican party’s worldwide economic assault on Africa over the last few decades since Reagan?”

Roseanne says that Jolie should support Barack Obama instead, saying “it might be good for your Asian and African children’s self-esteem to know you support [Obama] for the leader of the free world.”

She ended her rant simply, “Now go back to making your movies about women who love to handle big guns that shoot hundreds of people to death.”

Sara Gilbert has joined “The Big Bang Theory” as a series regular, extending a partnership of sorts that began in the early ’90s on “Roseanne.”

Gilbert, who guest-starred on CBS’ “Big Bang” for three episodes last season, will reprise her role as Leslie Winkle, the brainy colleague and on-and-off love interest of show protagonist Leonard Hofstadter, Ph.D.

Leonard is played by Johnny Galecki, who co-starred with Gilbert on the long-running ABC sitcom “Roseanne” as David Healy and Darlene Conner. On that series, the two also played an on-again, off-again couple over several seasons.

Gilbert scored two Emmy nominations for her work on “Roseanne” and has since appeared on such shows as “24,” “Twins” and “ER.”

“The Big Bang Theory,” which also stars Jim Parsons and Kaley Cuoco, begins its second season on Sept. 22.
