Six Million Reasons to Watch COZI TV on Father's Day; FX Orders Comedy Pilot with Two Funny Ladies
COZI TV is offering six million reasons to spend Father's Day with Lee Majors. The popular, national multicast network announced a special Father's Day mini-marathon of the iconic, action adventure series The Six Million Dollar Man, which will kick off on Sunday, June 19 at 12 PM (check local listings). Featuring five episodes of the beloved TV series, the Father's Day mini-marathon will spotlight the actor Lee Majors in his famed role as Colonel Steve Austin. A former astronaut with bionic implants employed by the United States Government, Colonel Austin enjoyed vision, strength and speed far beyond human capabilities. The Six Million Dollar Man regularly airs on COZI TV on Wednesdays at 9 PM.
Episodes included in COZI TV's Father’s Day mini-marathon are:
Secret of Bigfoot, Part I (12 PM)
Secret of Bigfoot, Part II (1 PM)
Return of the Bionic Woman, Part I (2 PM)
Return of the Bionic Woman, Part II (3 PM)
Seven Million Dollar Man (4 PM)
FX Networks has ordered a comedy pilot written by and starring Cristin Milioti and Nina Pedrad. Milioti (Fargo, How I Met Your Mother, The Wolf of Wall Street) and Pedrad (New Girl, 30 Rock) will serve as Executive Producers along with RCG Productions' (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia) Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day and Glenn Howerton, and 3 Arts' Michael Rotenberg (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Silicon Valley) and Nick Frenkel (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Mick). Pedrad will serve as showrunner. This half-hour comedy pilot follows Maxine, her best friends Natalie and Amy, and stepbrother Landis as they navigate the abject shit-storm that is adulthood. Cristin Milioti will play Maxine, an entitled actress-turned-process-server who takes lemons and makes a fire out of lemons, burning herself and others. Max's dysfunctional, tight-knit clan serves as her surrogate family and always lets her sing the Aaron Burr parts of Hamilton. Nina Pedrad will play Natalie. Sharp witted and scientifically inclined, Nat sells weed and prescription drugs, but blanches at the term "drug dealer." She wants to be the Sheryl Sandberg of weed. The other two roles have yet to be cast.
