All times are Eastern

THE GREAT HALLOWEEN FRIGHT FIGHT | 8:00-9:00pm | ABC
By: Matt Tamanini | @BWWMatt

Tonight the alphabet network premieres a follow up to last year's THE GREAT CHRISTMAS LIGHT FIGHT, with a suburban haunted house competition called THE GREAT HALLOWEEN FRIGHT FIGHT. Families from across the country compete to create the best haunted Halloween displays for a $50,000 prize. The show will be hosted by EXTREME MAKEOVER HOME EDITION designers Michael Moloney and Sabrina Soto. Get your costumes on and go trick-or-treating through the scariest neighborhood on TV.

MARRY ME | 9:00-9:30pm | NBC

What do you get when you take Casey Wilson and add Halloween? Hilarious hijinks, that's what. This show has already started off extremely strong, but it continues to get even better as episodes pass. On this episode, Annie and Jake dress up as a zombie Lucy and Ricky (isn't that everyone's first choice for a Halloween costume) while Dennah tries to get some attention with her revealing costume. I think it's safe to say we can go ahead and crown Casey Wilson as the new queen of comedy.

SUPERNATURAL | 9:00-10:00pm | The CW
By: Erin Resnick | @enr702

The boys are back to hunting demons and monsters. Remember Werewolf Kate that Dean and Sam let live a few seasons back? Well, she's back this week and sure to be causing havoc for the Winchesters. Now that Dean is no longer a demon, can he return to life out on the road hunting with his baby bro? My gut tells me "No" as the Mark of Cain is still burned into his flesh, and the guilt of his actions may eat him up inside.

THE PEOPLE'S COUCH | 10:00-11:00pm | Bravo
By: Matt Tamanini | @BWWMatt

If you haven't seen THE PEOPLE'S COUCH, it is as outlandish, disturbing, idiotic, and hilarious as you would want a reality show about people talking about reality shows (and scripted shows) to be. While none of the people that I regularly watch TV with act anything like the groups on THE COUCH, many of their conversations are fairly similar to the ones that I have with friends and family, so while they might be exceedingly over-the-top, their reactions and opinions often ring true. I highly suggest you check out the show and see if it works for you; for some it will, for many it won't.
