Only Murders in the Building - Lifeboat

Returning to the Arconia, and the Westies of Vince (Richard Kind), Rudy (Kumail Nanjiani), Alfonso (Desmin Borges), Inez (Daphne Rubin-Vega), and Ana (Lilian Rebelo), “Lifeboat” solves the death of Dudenoff (Griffin Dunne) while still leaving unanswered questions about the murder of Sazz (Jane Lynch). Dudenoff killing himself for his friends and them fulfilling his wishes by faking his continued existence feels an awful lot like the writers struggling to get themselves out of a dead end of their own making. The show ends with another cliffhanger and a new direction for the investigation pointing to the set of the film Sazz was working on and another familiar face.

Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein

Scary Sunday takes us back to an unlikely meeting of Hollywood stars. Hoping to use the studio’s most popular stars to rekindle interest in their monster properties, Universal brought the comedic duo into the world of Dracula (Béla Lugosi), Frankenstein’s Monster (Glenn Strange), and the Wolf Man (Lon Chaney Jr.) bringing back the actors who had made the monsters popular.

Bob's Burgers - Fort Night

Scary Sunday takes us back to the second Halloween episode of Bob’s Burgers featuring Gene (Eugene Mirman), Louise (Kristen Schaal), and Tina (Dan Mintz) getting trapped in their (admittedly awesome) cardboard fort on Halloween night along with Andy (Laura Silverman), Ollie (Sarah Silverman), and Daryl (Aziz Ansari) missing their chance to go trick-or-treating. Concentrating on making the kids a dragon costume, it takes quite some time for Bob (H. Jon Benjamin) and Linda (John Roberts) to notice the kids aren’t around.

Van Helsing

Spooky Saturday takes a look back at a film that was decidedly not. Tom Cruise‘s The Mummy wasn’t the only film to kill a revival of Universal Pictures’ monsters before it ever got started. 13 years earlier that honor went to Hugh Jackman, Kate Beckinsale, and Van Helsing. While a financial success, the negative response to the film killed any similar future projects for more than a decade.
