The history of beloved children's Halloween TV specials. The story behind Rod Serling's other hit TV show after The Twilight Zone. Some of the weirdest, stupidest, and funniest ways to have died.
Episode 217 is a wild and wacky Gen-X trip through Spooky Season.
The show begins with a look back at some of the beloved children's Halloween television specials. From Charlie Brown to Garfield and beyond, kids have been enjoying laughs and scares on TV for sixty years. We will look at some of the favorites as well as some lesser-known classics.
Everyone knows the Twilight Zone. It is one of the most influential television shows of all time. However, not as many know that creator Rod Serling tried his hand at another supernatural-themed series. We will look back at that show, Night Gallery, as well as the legacy of Rod Serling himself.
This week's Top 5 combines death and laughter. We will look at some of the most unusual true stories of ways people have died. Alarm clocks, facial hair, practical jokes, and more make this a list not to be missed.
There is, as always, a brand new This Week In History and Time Capsule looking at the first ever wedding held inside a hot air balloon.
