Barr co-created and professional produces the show with John Argent, who's Barr's b.f., and Eric Gilliland, a sitcom vet plus an alum of Barr's "Roseanne," which went from 1988-97 on ABC. Steven Eco-friendly may also be an professional producer.After remaining mostly in the public eye lately, Barr elevated her TV profile the 2009 summer season when she and Argent starred inside the Lifetime reality skein "Roseanne's Nuts," which dedicated to the nut farm the duo run in Hawaii.
