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

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.
Apple TV+ will expand its award-winning offering of comedy series with Platonic, a new series starring Emmy and Golden Globe nominees Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen, and co-written by Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco (Friends from College). The series will be produced for Apple by Sony Pictures Television. The series reunites Byrne and Rogen with director Nick Stoller following their collaboration on the Neighbors films. Platonic is a 10-episode, half-hour comedy which explores the inner workings of platonic friendship. A pair of former best friends who met in their youth (played by Byrne and Rogen) reconnect as adults and try to mend the rift that led to their falling out. As their friendship becomes more consuming, it destabilizes their lives and causes them to reevaluate their choices.
In addition to writing, Stoller will direct. Rose Byrne, Seth Rogen and Conor Welch will serve as executive producers on the series. Platonic will premiere alongside upcoming Apple Original comedy series including Physical, also starring Rose Byrne; The Afterparty, a new comedy from Academy Award, BAFTA and Golden Globe Award winners Chris Miller and Phil Lord, and Sony Pictures Television; Schmigadoon!, a musical comedy project executive produced by Lorne Michaels; Mr. Corman, directed, written and executive produced by Joseph Gordon-Levitt; as well as returning series including Peabody Award winner Dickinson, and critically acclaimed comedies Ted Lasso and Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet.
