Even though it is the first week of October, Fox is celebrating Halloween tonight with Animation Domination starting at 7:30p with the return of The Cleveland Show. When Cleveland and his friends go to a neighboring town to watch Stoolbend play their football rivals an accident has them trapped there doing anything they can to get home. Will they be able to make it home in their disguises or will this be the end of The Cleveland Show? BTW Roberta and Junior have some of the best costumes I have ever seen on televsion and Donna gets arrested over hers!
Then at 8p The Simpsons celebrates it its 23rd, yes 23rd, Treehouse of Horrors. Tonight they take on the Mayan Calendar, a black hole, Paranormal Activity and Back to the Future. Even though the special is over two decades old, it is still as fresh when it was Maggie’s age. How old is show now anyways?
Then at 8:30p Bob’s Burgers goes Trick or Treating in an upscale neighborhood. At 9p Family Guy takes on the scariest thing in broadcast TV…Nielsen Ratings.
Then at 9:30p Fox ends the evening with the Smiths going on a killer vacation on American Dad. Stan is asked to work, Roger meets the perfect man, Steve makes a friend who has the smart accent of Hugh Grant the movie actor, but is stupid like Hugh Grant the person; and finally Hayley and Jeff are having problems in bed. Maybe it would’ve been better if they stayed home, but how would that be fun for us!
Talk shows turn 500. Soap operas turn 500. But it is extremely rare that any scripted show hits the milestone of 500 episodes and tonight at 8p that is exactly what The Simpsons is going to do on Fox. Marge, Homer, Bart, Lisa and Maggie Simpson will celebrate their 500th show together and they haven’t aged a day since the show debuted in 1989. Springfield is going to have a big party to honor the occasion, but sadly The Simpsons won’t be there because they have been banished from the town they have called home for over 22 years.
Tonight’s episode is worthy for the milestone, so why not watch something that very rarely ever happens in television. Just to give you a hint how rare it is, only one other scripted show has filmed that many episode. That other show was Gunsmoke that aired 635 episodes before signing off the air in 1975.

For the last two decades Yeardley Smith has played Lisa Simpson on The Simpsons and yesterday she was photographed dressed looking like the character she has been voicing for almost half of her life. Just like the oldest daughter on the show, she was seen with blonde hair and wearing a short a-line red dress. The only thing she is missing is a chunky pearl necklace and she would look exactly like her. I guess if you voice someone long enough, you start to look like them. Which I am sure is scary news for Seth MacFarlane who will either start putting on weight or turn into a baby or a dog if Family Guy stays on the air much longer.
Tonight at 8p on Fox’s The Simpsons, Marge finally becomes the fun parent. When Lisa and Bart are good they get to spend the day with their fun dad and when they get home they are as happy as can be. Well Marge wants a piece of that action and decides to try to be the fun mom. Well her plan goes terribly wrong until car troubles change everything. They try a new restaurant and find themselves being Foodies. Now the three of them are spending every minute together, but Homer feels left out and is cooking up a plan to get back into his kids’ spotlight. Is Marge willing to share her new fun status or will Homer get his crown back? Tune in to this yummy episode to find out.
Oh and it is a Fox law that you can’t have an episode about food with Gordon Ramsay, so he will be making a dreamy appearance on the show!!!
For the last 23 years The Simpsons continues to top itself each with Treehouse of Horrors and tonight’s edition on Fox 8p doesn’t disappoint! In this homage to Halloween they take on Dexter, 127 Hours and Avatar in a way only they can. But the best tale from the Treehouse is when Homer is paralyzed by a spider bite and can only communicate through farting. Something so beautiful will come out of something so smelly. So tune in for the best episode of season of The Simpsons because it is spooktacular.
And make sure to keep watching Fox because at 9:30p The Cleveland Show gets their own Halloween special. Cleveland and Rallo can’t handle their sleepovers, so they will have to do something to prove that they are men. Meanwhile Roberta lives a Twilight fantasy and Robert Pattinson never looked so animated! So enjoy these scary tales just hours before Halloween!
