I loved today's show.   The organ/spooky version of the main theme was fantastic.

While last years, super heroes was great..   This year was more traditional Halloween themed, spooks, scary....
I don't think you can really compare them.    It's comparing Apples to Oranges or perhaps Pumpkins.

Sure there are things you could pick on, but you could say that about every show.   

Come on Doooooooown! was a nice touch.

This was an incredible episode. The editing, the costumes, the set, the games, the results, etc.

But as always, I can't help but think the black floor would have really made this their best Halloween special ever.

Seems like it’d make it feel too much like a primetime episode during daytime though.

One thing I would have loved to hear George (as the werewolf) say: ""And now, here's your ghost: Boo Carey!" (get it? Ghost=host, Boo=Drew)
He called him "Boo Scary" one year.
I was half-expecting him to say "The Price is Fright" at some point.

Speaking of which, Drew was credited as Boo Scary in the closing credits - in fact, pretty much every credit had a Halloween name, Simpsons "Treehouse of Horror"-style.

Actually, they had 2 sets of credits. If you watch the show again, then look at the credits posted on Twitter, they are NOT the same names.

Please, please, please tell me they aired the real credits on TV.  Those names were too good, with too much effort clearly put into them, for most people not to ever see them.  My personal favorite was Sue McIntyre -- "Poison Suemac."

Oh, and the rest of the show was good, too. :)
