Garrett Popcorn Shops® on ABC’s Happy Endings

Garrett Popcorn — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 00:00:07 +0000

Share the love? We say share the popcorn!

Expect to see Garrett Popcorn make a cameo in tomorrow’s episode of Happy Endings. We’re not sure what role Chicago Mix will play yet, though we’re certain any outcome will be as tasty as it is hilarious:

Plot synopsis: Some people wait for the groundhog to signal the end of winter. Instead, the friends wait for Brad and Jane’s annual “spring smackdown,” their yearly blowout of a domestic squabble, to let them know when Max will come out of hibernation and when winter will end. “The Butterfly Effect” airs on February 22 (9:30 PM-10:00 PM EST) on ABC.
