The hit drama tries a Halloween episode, but it equates to the same stuff in a different package.

‘Castle’ changes conventions and proves (once again) that it is a much smarter show than your standard crime procedural.

‘How I Met Your Mother’ circles back to a story told in its sixth episode ever. Did the Slutty Pumpkin live up to the memory that Ted (or the fans) had for her?

Before he was Jerry’s Uncle Leo on ‘Seinfeld’, Len Lesser had a longer and fuller career than most people in Hollywood could ever dream of having. His memoir, ‘Where’s the Watch?!’ hits bookstores on November 8.

ABC and NBC both had good premieres for their fairy tale dramas last week. ‘Once Upon A Time’ and ‘Grimm’ were both well received by audiences. On cable, ‘Beavis & Butt-Head’ returned to MTV, but the big story again came from ‘Walking Dead’.

‘Pan Am’ delivers another solid episode. I’m afraid, though, that the show needs to knock one out of the park if it is going to forestall its ratings free fall.

The second episode of ‘Once Upon a Time’ was even more important than the first … and the show hit it out of the park.
