COZI TV Launches The Munsters on October 5; Instant Mom Returns to TV Land for 3rd Season
He is a man of stature. A man of strength. A man who is a hero to every man. And he is coming to COZI TV. He is a man they call Her-man. Standing up for all the Hermans everywhere. It's your time at last, Herman! Your time to come out of the shadows and revel in your Herman-ness! You are the man of the year--the Her-man of the year! It's a year long celebration on COZI TV as they present The Munsters! The series premieres on COZI TV on Monday, October 5, 2015, airing each weeknight at 5pm & 5:30pm. We'll have more info very soon, but this is indeed great news. We can of course expect a marathon on Halloween (Saturday, October 31) as well, but details will follow. There will be a 12-hour marathon, though, and it is certainly going to be a "Munster" mash. The sitcom, epicting the home life of a family of benign monsters, stars Fred Gwynne as Herman Munster and Yvonne De Carlo as his wife, Lily Munster. So get ready to go back to Mockingbird Lane after over 50 years, as the 1964-66 sitcom will join the COZI TV regular line-up.
The Tia Mowry sitcom Instant Mom is back for its third season. TV Land will air the series Saturdays at 8pm & 8:30pm beginning Saturday, Sept. 19. On the season premiere, forced to face her fear of swimming, Stephanie makes the rest of the family confront their fears leading to an uncomfortable situation on top of an amusement park rollercoaster. 26 episodes were produced for the first season, followed by 20 more in its second season. It is reported that 20 more episodes will air for season three. The sitcom started off on NickMom and Nick at Nite but moved to TV Land late last season. Instant Mom is a comedy series about twenty-something party girl, Stephanie, who trades in cosmos for carpools when she marries an older man, Charlie, with three kids. Stephanie slowly grows into her role as a full-time stepmom while struggling to maintain some sense of her fun-loving, slightly irresponsible life.
