TV NEWS APRIL 21

http://blog.sitcomsonline.com/2015/04/cozi-tv-adds-my-favorite-martian-and.html

COZI TV is excited to announce its new brand ambassador, actor Antonio Fargas. Since the 1960s, Fargas has captured the attention of audiences with his performances on stage, television and film. A versatile entertainer, he is perhaps most well-known for the seminal role of "Huggy Bear" on the iconic buddy cop series Starsky & Hutch, which airs weekdays at 1pm and Tuesdays at 8pm ET on COZI TV. The artist kicked off his relationship with COZI TV yesterday (April 20) with the premiere of the first of three network identity spots featuring Fargas and his flashy, high-stepping swing band, The New Jump Blues. The musical promos feature soundtracks created exclusively for COZI TV. The other two promos will premiere later in the year. In his new role as brand ambassador, Fargas will also host other projects for the network. After Starsky & Hutch ended its run in 1979, Fargas actively continued his stage, film and television career. With notable roles in significant films such as Foxy Brown, Don't be a Menace and Car Wash, as well as appearances on shows including All My Children, House of Lies, Miami Vice, Lie to Me and Everybody Hates Chris, he has remained a consistent figure in popular culture for newer generations. He is currently involved in several film projects and is the front-man/MC for The New Jump Blues, which has performed at such venues as the Playboy Jazz Festival in Los Angeles.
