COZI TV's 3rd Rock 3rd of July Marathon and Rambler Sweepstakes; TV Legend Carol Burnett Joins Better Call Saul

COZI TV's 3rd Rock from the Sun Rambler Sweepstakes

COZI TV, NBCUniversal Local's national multicast network that delivers TV's all-time best shows and pop culture favorites, launched a 3rd Rock from the Sun sweepstakes to give away a genuine 1962 AMC Rambler American 400, just like the iconic red convertible featured in the celebrated classic comedy series. Fans can enter the COZI TV 3rd Rock from the Sun Rambler Sweepstakes for a chance to win the fully restored, road-ready vintage car now through Aug. 31, 2022, at CoziTV3rdRockSweepstakes.com .

In the sitcom, the winner of eight Emmy Awards, a 1962 Rambler served as the landing spot for the space aliens when they came to Earth impersonating a family played by an all-star ensemble cast led by John Lithgow, Jane Curtin, Kristen Johnston, French Stewart and the young Joseph Gordon-Levitt. In addition to the first episode, the red convertible served as a regular set and was key to several episodes of the Carsey-Werner Television-produced comedy, which premiered on NBC in 1996 and included 139 episodes over six seasons. The car being given away in the COZI TV 3rd Rock from the Sun Rambler Sweepstakes was acquired by COZI TV in 2021, shortly after the show joined the network's regular line-up on July 19, 2021. COZI TV partnered with professional car restorers to repair systems, update mechanicals and customize features to be similar to the 3rd Rock Rambler. The original Rambler from the series is currently on display at the Wisconsin Auto Museum and owned by the Kenosha History Center in Wisconsin.

To celebrate the start of the COZI TV 3rd Rock from the Sun Rambler Sweepstakes, the network will present the special "3rd Rock 3rd of July" Marathon this Sunday, July 3. The six-hour presentation will begin at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT and will include 12 episodes from across each of the show's six seasons – all which include the Rambler. Multiple episodes of 3rd Rock are presented on COZI TV each weekday and on Sundays (check listings for times.) The COZI TV 3rd Rock from the Sun Rambler Sweepstakes is open to legal residents of the 48 contiguous United States and D.C. (void in AK, HI, PR and where prohibited), 18 years of age or older who possess a valid U.S. driver’s license in their state/jurisdiction of residence. No purchase necessary, limit one entry per person. Began yesterday June 27, 2022, at 9 a.m. ET and ends August 31, 2022, at 9 p.m. ET.
