Along the tour, CBS is inviting fans to join them on the "Comfy Blue Sofa," otherwise known as the beloved Lovesac Sactionals, for sneak peeks of upcoming CBS shows, meet-and-greets with stars at select locations, memorable photo opportunities and giveaways. Wherever audiences see the Comfy Blue Sofa, it's a signal that CBS Premiere Week is close.

In addition to the regular-sized comfy sofas at the various tour stops, CBS is dispatching a gigantic (20 ft. long, 8 ft. high), eye-catching sofa, serving as a marquee for the Comfy Blue Sofa Tour. It will be visible as it travels on highways and through cities, towns, bodies of water and country roads across the U.S. (stopping at festivals, events and landmarks) to remind fans that the Network's "comfort TV" is just around the corner. The comfy blue sofas will also find their way onto the sets of popular CBS shows to reinforce the signal that CBS Fall is about to begin. CBS' social posts on Threads (@CBS) and Instagram Stories (@CBSTV) will alert fans to the fun, easy and unexpected places the tour will stop throughout the campaign.

One mystery concerning The Pradeeps of Pittsburgh has been solved: Prime Video announced that the highly anticipated Original comedy series will premiere all eight half-hour episodes on October 17 exclusively on Prime Video in the U.S., UK, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Austria, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Uruguay, Venezuela, and India, and on Amazon Freevee in the U.S., UK, and Germany. Inspired by the personal experiences of Emmy-nominated creator Vijal Patel (black-ish, The Middle), The Pradeeps of Pittsburgh follows the Pradeep family and the events of their first few months after moving to America from India. As told through hilarious (and often conflicting) flashbacks from an interrogation room, the Pradeeps quickly find themselves embroiled - romantically, personally, and professionally - with a polar-opposite neighborhood family, leading to a predicament with many surprising twists.

Sahana Srinivasan (Bhanu Pradeep), Arjun Sriram (Kamal Pradeep), Ashwin Sakthivel (Vinod Pradeep), and Nicholas Hamilton (Stu Mills) star alongside Andrews, Vee, Hilty, and Suplee, with Pete Holmes (Dark Suit) and Romy Rosemont (Light Suit) appearing as special guest stars.
