Take some time this week to remember your original happy hour: Saturday mornings as a kid, waking up at dawn, jumping on the couch with a bowl of chocolate cereal, turning on the ‘toons, tuning out the outside world, and working your way into a sugar hangover before noon. It’s all Frights and Delights tonight, as we get you into a Boo-Berry marshmallow mood for this special time of year. That’s right, go out and buy your seasonal monster cereals while you can find them, cause it’s time for our “cerealized” version of a Halloween Special, The 9th Annual Franken Berry Season Primetime Special! This year, we get WEIRD with our guest, the writer and director of future cult classic, Tim Travers & The Time Travelers Paradox, Stimson Snead.
