Roseanne Couch Week on COZI TV; The CW Orders Leighton Meester Series for 2025

Roseanne

COZI TV, NBCUniversal Local's national multicast network, is partnering with Carsey-Werner Television to shine the spotlight this year on the unheralded star of many memorable scenes from its primetime staple Roseanne – the hit sitcom's iconic couch – through a series of events and special programming, beginning this month. COZI TV today announced a comically over-sized, inflatable Roseanne couch, matching the version used on the show, will embark on a nationwide tour of GalaxyCon fan events, which are scheduled for Richmond, Va., March 15-17; Raleigh, N.C., July 25-28; San Jose, Calif., Aug. 16-18; and Miami, (date TBD).

As part of the initiative, COZI TV will present "Roseanne Couch Week," July 8-12. Comprised of 20 episodes, the multi-part marathon will begin nightly at 11 p.m./10 p.m. ET and will be hosted by an animated, crocheted, afghan-wearing talking couch. Over four episodes per night, the verbose couch will spill the stuffing on behind-the-scenes stories and favorite moments from the show, as well as photos of GalaxyCon attendees’ encounters with the colossal replica. The tour and special week of episodes come as Roseanne is transitioning from standard to high-def episodes, remastered with the use of fast-evolving AI technology that, combined with human artistry, allows studios to convert episodes from their original low-quality tape sources into HD 16x9 master materials on an ongoing basis.


Leighton Meester

The CW Network, Roku Originals and Stan have teamed up for the original scripted series Good Cop/Bad Cop starring Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl), Luke Cook (Katy Keene, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) and Clancy Brown (Dexter: New Blood, Billions). Production on the eight-part procedural dramedy created by John Quaintance (Reboot, Will & Grace) and produced by Jeff Wachtel's Future Shack Entertainment and Jungle Entertainment is slated to begin later this spring in Queensland, Australia. The series is set to premiere on The CW in 2025 and will stream on The Roku Channel in the U.S. and Stan in Australia.

Good Cop/Bad Cop is a one-hour procedural dramedy centered around Lou (Leighton Meester) and Henry (Luke Cook), an odd couple sister and brother detective team in a small Pacific Northwest police force. They must contend with colorful residents, a serious lack of resources, and their very complicated dynamic with each other and with their police chief, Big Hank (Clancy Brown) - who happens to be their father.
