AMERICA'S FAVORITE TV MOM ROSEANNE BARR HOSTS NEW SERIES - "MOMSTERS: WHEN MOMS GO BAD" ON INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY PREMIERING BLACK FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28

- Viewers Invited to Watch and Win a $5000 Shopping Spree During ID's All-Day "Black Friday Watch 'Til You Drop" Marathon Hosted by Barr --

(Silver Spring, Md.) -- With the help of TV's beloved loud-mouth mom and infamous comedienne, Roseanne Barr, MOMSTERS: WHEN MOMS GO BAD uncovers a bizarre world where mothers will do anything for their children's happiness. From the little league mama who stalks and threatens her son's coach to the pageant parent who will stop at nothing to get her daughter the crown, these mothers are not afraid to cross boundaries and get their hands dirty. MOMSTERS: WHEN MOMS GO BAD premieres on the most appropriate day of the year, Black Friday, November 28 at 10/9c with back-to-back episodes.

"These 'momsters' find themselves knee-deep in schemes so sordid and unexpected that the only way out is to keep going - you will laugh at the inherent humor of these situations just as often as you gasp at the shock of their crimes," said Henry Schleiff, Group President of Investigation Discovery, Destination American, American Heroes Channel, Discovery Family Channel and Discovery Fit & Health. "Roseanne acts as the mother of all meltdowns in her uniquely sarcastic tone while telling the stories of the many women who give Mommie Dearest a run for her money."
