COZI TV Halloween Marathons of The Munsters & Roseanne; Apple TV+ Orders Another Comedy, This Time with Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen

Halloweenathon - The Munsters and Roseanne

COZI TV invites viewers to celebrate Halloween with a holiday treat, a "Halloweenathon" special. Starting at 9 AM on Saturday, October 31, viewers can watch 22 back-to-back episodes of the iconic television series, The Munsters, followed by eight straight hilarious Halloween-themed episodes of Roseanne at 8 PM. (check local listings). The Munsters follows the hilariously spooky Munster family as they try to lead a regular life at 1313 Mockingbird Lane. The marathon of The Munsters includes a wide range of favorite episodes, including "My Fair Munster," where Grandpa slips a love potion into his granddaughter's oatmeal for her to find a boyfriend and "Autumn Croakus," where Grandpa writes a love letter to a matrimonial agency in hopes of finding a wife. The Roseanne series is well-known for their annual Halloween episodes and will include the episode "Boo," which introduces the family's love for the holiday and the annual prank wars between characters Roseanne and Dan. It also features "Trick Me Up, Trick Me Down," where the Conner family's neighbor discovers Dan gutted and bloody on the kitchen table as part of another classic prank. COZI TV viewers can watch The Munsters and Roseanne regularly seven days a week at 7 PM and 9 PM respectively.


Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen - Platonic
