Genius readers Asterios and Justine followed our Halloween costume advice and went as a supernatural Whitney billboard. Nothing is a lovelier holiday ritual for a couple than dressing as a kinda-bored man and the evil vampiric shrew who wants to eat that man's eyeballs. Anyone else dare to try out a comedy costume this year? It's not too late! Halloween is just boo-ginning. (I will not apologize for that joke, and frankly, I should not be expected to.)

Halloween is on Monday, but all the Halloween parties are this weekend. Have you chosen your costume yet? No? You need to hurry! Don't you know that if you don't have the best, most clever costume, no one will ever love or respect you? You've got a lot riding on the line here! You need something amazing to get wasted in on Saturday!

Well, we're here to help. We've gathered up a whole slew of comedy-related costume ideas for you, ranging from the ambitious and work-intensive to the insanely lazy. No matter how committed to this whole night of dress-up you are, you'll find something here your speed.

Here's a preview of Community's Halloween episode, airing next week. Costumes! Zombies! Chef Gaga and Senor Chang the racist-prover! What more could you ask for?

"A person should always choose a costume which is in direct contrast to her own personality."

If you don't like It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, featuring the gang from Peanuts, then, I'm sorry, you're a monster. It's a heartwarming tale about childhood belief, dogs fighting in World War I, getting dissapointed by well-meaning, yet idiotic adults, and not being able to stay awake through the night. In other words, it's perfect.

Great Pumpkin first aired on October 27, 1966 on CBS, and it's been re-aired on that network and, beginning in 2001, on ABC every year since. Like the comic strips themselves, it was written by brilliant [...]

Ain't no (skeleton) bones about it, there's not a ghost of a chance I won't watch the Happy Endings Halloween episode online, even if releasing it the day before it normally airs seems like a somewhat desperate ploy for the network to monitor audience response to online content. I still think that show is a scream. Vampires! Just so we're on the same page, it's only Tuesday. I'm only going to get way more into this.

In Parks and Rec’s four season run, the show has only had one Halloween episode prior to last night’s show, only because this is the second time the show’s been on the air in the fall. The last Halloween episode, “Greg Pikitis,” in which Leslie engaged in a battle of wits with her prank-loving teenage nemesis, is one of my favorite Parks episodes ever. While I didn’t like “Meet ‘n’ Greet” quite as much as “Greg Pikitis,” it was still a funny and thoroughly entertaining installment of Parks and Recreation that found funny and exciting new ways to explore the relationships between the characters in the show’s large central [...]

Aol TV has some images from the upcoming Parks and Rec Halloween episode, which seems to feature the greatest death-themed office party of all time. Click through to see the rest, and ask yourself, who doesn't want to watch April and Andy make-out while holding an ambivalent Ben Wyatt in headlock? Isn't that, after all, what Halloween is all about?
