My top 5 Halloween episodes

#5 How I Met Your Mother, The Slutty Pumpkin

Synopses (from IMDB): On Halloween, Robin and her new boyfriend Mike meet for a double date with Lily and Marshall, who are eager to win the costume contest. Barney wants to take Ted with him to a Victoria Secret's Party, but he heads for a party on the roof of his apartment house, where he a few years ago met the "slutty pumpkin".

My verdict: Looking back, we can realize that from the very beginning, the fans of How I Met Your Mother are doomed to stay hooked up in the series and be surprised throughout the years.

Favorite quote:

Barney: [at the lame roof party] I can't believe you talked me into this.

Ted: I didn't, you followed me up here.

# 4 The Vampire Diaries, Masquerade

Synopses (from IMDB): Stefan and Damon decide on a new plan to deal with Katherine at the Lockwood's masquerade ball. Katherine calls on an old friend, Lucy, to attend the ball with her.

My verdict: Well, any episode with Katherine is just amazing, and this episode really got us hooked from beginning to end.

Favorite quote:

Katherine: The three of us together, just like old times. The brother who loved me too much and the one that didn't love me enough.

Damon: And the evil slut vampire who only loved herself.

#3 Charmed, All Halliwell's Eve

Synopses (from IMDB): In Halloween, while two Grimlocks attack Prue, Piper, Phoebe, Darryl and Leo at the Halliwell sisters' home, the sisters are sucked into a time portal created by The Powers That Be to Virginia in 1670.

My verdict: I just loved the way the creators portrayed the origin of Halloween. And Phoebe and the broom, enough said.

Favorite quote:

Prue: By the looks of the clothes, I'd say we were in the early 1600s.

Phoebe: Where the life expectancy of a witch is, oh, 15 minutes.

#2 Friends, The One With the Halloween Party

Synopses (from IMDB): Monica and Chandler are having a costume party for Halloween. Phoebe bumps into Ursula who is getting married in a week and invites her in return for Ursula's invitation for the wedding.

My verdict: I can't really find a Friends episode that I don't like. What else can I say? It's Friends. It's Halloween.

Favorite quote:

Phoebe: Ah so we meet again oh Cat Woman

Monica: So we do oh Super Girl.

Phoebe: [laughs] It's me, Phoebe.

#1 Buffy, Halloween

Synopses (from IMDB): On Halloween, Buffy and her friends patronize an unusual costume shop where customers turn into whatever costume they are wearing.

My verdict: As a huge Buffy fan, I can say that this episode had everything. Buffy as a noble woman and Xander as a soldier are simply hilarious. And we got to see a whole new side of Giles.

Favorite quote:

Larry: You and Buffy, you're just friends, right?

Xander: I like to think of it less as a friendship and more as a solid foundation for future bliss.
