Superman & Lois – 2021
Halloween is a time for shrieks, thrills, and Halloween-themed episodes.
But what’s better (and spookier) than 90s Halloween fun? Absolutely nothing.
So, we’ve put together a list of spooktacular throwback episodes to kick off your fall celebrations!
Get your witches brew, candy corn, and pumpkin pie ready and get to viewing. And maybe don’t look under the bed… BOO!
Boy Meets World
“He said what all killers say. He wants to come here. He wants to kill us. He wants us to wait right here.”– Eric Matthews.
Boy Meets World basically defines our childhood. When the gang finds themselves all alone during detention, weird things begin happening.
Sabrina the Teenage Witch
Sabrina the Teenage Witch had plenty of Halloween episodes that were SO good, we had trouble picking just one favorite so we opted for season 3’s “Good Will Haunting” in which Hilda and Zelda attend their Aunt Beulah’s Halloween party at an asylum. Back at home, Sabrina’s party is terrorized by a talking doll from the Other Realm.
Friends
Streaming Friends episodes is a favorite past time. No episode is as classic as “The One With the Halloween Party” when Monica throws a Halloween party!
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Buffy was one of the most iconic shows of the 90s, but the best Halloween episode featured all of the characters turning into real-life versions of their costumes was terrifyingly fantastic. Dust off those DVD collections and sink your teeth into this episode… pun intended.
How I Met Your Mother
One word- slutty pumpkin. Yes, this How I Met Your Mother Halloween installment has everything you’d watch from a classic Halloween episode including a Halloween costume party and Ted longing for his lost love.
Home Improvement
Jonathan Taylor Thomas was everyone’s first crush. This Home Improvement episode “The Haunting of Taylor House” found Tim and Jill building a haunted house for Brad’s party.
Smart Guy
“Diary of a Mad Schoolgirl” isn’t technically a Halloween episode, but it sure has the elements as TJ explains Lizzie Borden to his classmate and Mo reads a girl’s diary to find out she’s super obsessed with him and wants to take him to the cemetery to meet her dead grandmother. Yikes.
That 70s Show
Lizzie McGuire
Poor Kate believes that a prop for a horror movie has turned her friends into zombies!
It's been 17 YEARS since the 'Night of the Day of the Dead' episode of Lizzie McGuire aired on October 5, 2001 pic.twitter.com/rOwWXyQYNz

HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM ALL OF US AT CRAVEYOUTV!
Happy watching.
Streaming services have been a saving grace when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic.
As all TV show and film productions shut down in mid-March and are slowly beginning to ramp up, the usual slate of programming that we look forward to in the fall might not be available to us.
Yes, many networks are feeling confident that coronavirus will dwindle enough for them to film some episodes, but the reality is, it might be a long time before our favorite sitcoms and dramas return to “normal”… whatever that is these days.
So, as we chill out at home, the need for new TV shows to watch is growing. And if you live alone or are simply socially distanced from your friends, you might be looking for a cast of independent, funny, like-minded women to befriend from the comfort of your couch.
If that’s the case, Darren Star’s new series, Emily in Paris is going to be your new fall obsession.
If the name Darren Star sounds familiar to you, that’s because he’s the genius behind some cult hits like Beverly Hills, 90210 and Sex and the City.
The new Netflix series, which was originally supposed to air on Paramount, aims to fill the void left behind by Younger, another Star show that has unfortunately delayed production and its highly-anticipated season due to the pandemic.
You don’t need a synopsis to gauge what Emily in Paris is going to be about — the title says it all. Emily, a 20-something marketing professional from Chicago snags a dream job in France and begins her European adventure.
Alright, fine… here’s the official synopsis:
Emily, an ambitious twenty-something marketing executive from Chicago, unexpectedly lands her dream job in Paris when her company acquires a French luxury marketing company — and she is tasked with revamping their social media strategy. Emily’s new life in Paris is filled with intoxicating adventures and surprising challenges as she juggles winning over her work colleagues, making friends, and navigating new romances.
The show will not only fill the void of many other bold babe shows that are currently on hiatus but since the entire series was filmed on location in Paris, it’ll also fill that travel void while likely providing travel inspiration for when the world opens back up again.
If you’ve ever tuned in to any of Star’s shows, you know that in addition to powerful female leads that are career-oriented and rely on their friends to navigate life, the characters are also trendy and stylish boasting some of the best designer pieces and giving you plenty of fashion inspo in case you’re looking for a closet revamp or maybe to invest in some staple pieces.
Lily Collins, who will step into Emily’s pumps, is already embracing the fashion-aspect by channeling her inner Carrie Bradshaw on Twitter.
Carrying the iconic @Fendi ‘Baguette’ as a nod to #DarrenStarr’s original muse SJP! Always looking to Carrie Bradshaw for inspiration… especially as I step into the next stages of @EmilyinParis… pic.twitter.com/5x8LnIUZ07
— Lily Collins (@lilycollins) April 11, 2019
Collins not only stars as the titular character, but she’ll also serve as a producer on the series. She posted a still from the series on Instagram saying that the series comes at the perfect time as she’s missing “friends, working, traveling, and especially Paris.”
Broadway’s Ashley Park will star as Mindy Chen, also a 20-something navigating life in Paris who becomes Emily’s confidant, while Kate Walsh stars as Emily’s co-worker from Chicago.
Even without watching the series, I know that my biggest complaint will be that the episodes are only a half-hour each, which has been everyone’s biggest gripe when it comes to Younger.
The first season of Emily in Paris will consist of 10 episodes premiering on October 2, 2020.
Happy September aka the start of spooky season. It’s the month where Freeform gears up to put a spell on you with it’s upcoming 31 Nights of Halloween
