From The Goldbergs and 8 Simple Rules, to Bob’s Burgers and How I Met Your Mother, there are plenty of TV sitcoms out there ready to celebrate Halloween. Sure, these shows aren’t always centred around the spooky season, but when given the opportunity, they throw themselves head first into a bit of macabre fun.

In fact, over the past few decades, plenty of sitcoms have featured Halloween-themed instalments. So much so, there are easily enough sitcoms to round out 31 days of Halloween (aka the entire month of October), should you want to create your own Halloween-hilarity marathon!

And to make things even easier, I’ve compiled a list of 31 Halloween episodes, taken from 31 different sitcoms, just for you! After all, why watch one sitcom when you can watch 31 of them?

Stretching back to the mid-1990s, I am presenting an eclectic collection of sitcoms, that you may wish to check out. If you want some laughs this Halloween season, then these could be the episodes for you!
