After watching nearly every Halloween-themed episode that aired this year, I learned one thing and one thing only: I love the sh*t out of Halloween episodes. Even The Simpsons‘ “Treehouse of Horror” series, which hasn’t been stellar in at least a decade, is still something I look forward to every year. Did I laugh at one joke in The Neighbors, solely because Halloween? Yes, yes, I did, making me the only person to have done so in the show’s existence. After viewing so many themed shows, I decided to put together a post of every costume main characters wore on over two dozen Halloween episodes. I also included some that haven’t aired yet, like Happy Endings and New Girl, which looks great, despite the show missing an opportunity to dress Zooey as her sister’s character from Bones. Then Zooey > Emily would have been settled once and for all.
