Day 10 (of 13) and it’s ’Halloween’ with Teen Titans Go!

In this episode, Raven dresses up as a pretty Pegasus in an attempt to rouse the rest of the Titans to enjoy the spooky season. When that fails, she summons a demon… which ends up being an even bigger problem. 🎃

Day 9 (of 13) and it’s time for Power Rangers Samurai!

In ‘Party Monsters’, all the ghosts of the bad guys gather together for a Halloween party where they talk about their greatest battles with the Rangers.*

*It’s an excuse for a cost-saving flashback episode. 🎃

Kurt Russell played Ego in Guardians of the Galaxy 2. So when you think about Ego in the future, just think of Kurt.

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 2d

The real stars of the episode. 🐾

Day 7 (of 13) and today it’s the Halloween episode of short-lived (and barely remembered) Bette Midler sitcom, Bette!

In this episode Bette sings with Dolly Parton and goes trick-or-treating! 🎃

What a treat it was

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 3d

The highlight… Wagner singing Bat Out of Hell. Or I think that’s what it was. 🦇🔥🔥🔥

Day 6 (of 13) and it’s Halloween week on X Factor! And it’s the year of some absolute legends including Tesco Mary(!), Wagner(!!), and Aiden Grimshaw(!!!).

Oh, and One Direction, Cher Lloyd, and Matt Cardle. 🎃

Are you suggesting I just hastily slapped on some clues without giving them any thought? ;)

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 5d

The highlight of this episode is the reveal that this man has been bonking his girlfriend’s old school mate, after she baked him some cakes. His defence is that he has a big wang.

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 5d

Day 5 (of 13) and today is reserved for a Halloween-themed episode of The Jerry Springer Show. It’s a ‘Nightmare on Springer Street’. 🎃

Day 4 (of 13) and today it’s Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper!

In this episode (‘Halloween’) Tyler is called ‘chicken-butt’ by the other kids, after he gets scared by a horror movie. To prove he’s not a wuss, he visits a supposedly haunted house.

To add to this, last time I went (last year) it was the all you can eat buffet, so literally I was going up and sorting out my own food. Felt sorry for the waiter whose job it was to just tell me to do everything myself.

There’s just 30 episodes left of #Neighbours and that means 30 episodes left to swoon over Zac Willis. 😢

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 6d

Doing a Simpsons double-bill tonight (because why not?), and it’s over to Treehouse of Horror XIX for a trio of tales involving Transformers, Mad Men, and Charlie Brown! 🎃🎃🎃

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 6d

The Halloween fun continues with a Halloween episode of The Simpsons which is NOT a Treehouse of Horror episode.

Halloween of Horror is one of a few horror-themed instalments of The Simpsons. Oh, and it features the John Carpenter Halloween theme tune over the end credits! Huzzah! 🎃

No, but he does get turned into a mouse

Alexander Wiggan @alexwiggan.bsky.social · 7d

More Halloween hijinks with Sister, Sister. 🎃

In this episode (‘Halloween’), Tia and Tamera head off to a Halloween rave, while Ray and Lisa attend a fancy Halloween party… which isn’t a costume party.

And Michael Berryman plays the Devil.

Not really thrown myself into Halloween this year for ‘reasons’ but for the next 13 days I shall, starting with the Halloween episode of Highway to Heaven (aka The Devil and Jonathan Smith). 🎃

In this ep, Mark signs his soul over to the Devil, to save the life of a young boy.
