With Hallowe'en upon us, we decided to take a look at this season's two witch remakes: The CW's Charmed, and Netflix's Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina. Eve Batey joins us to discuss whether they put a spell on us, or if we wished we could burn them at the stake. Around The Dial stops at The House On Haunted Hill, Iron Fist's second (and final) season, and Counterpart. Find out whether the climax for Seinfeld's "The Contest" is its induction into The Canon. And then, after you learn the week's Winner or Loser, you can play along with a Game Time full of memorable First Impressions. It's no toil and only good trouble in our latest Extra Hot Great podcast!

The Conners debuted last week, sans its controversial founder -- and Sarah Baker made HER EHG debut to talk about everything from how the show handled "Roseanne"'s death to the healing properties of Goodman and Metcalf to whether we'll keep watching without a possible train-wreck as motivation. We went Around The Dial with The Cool Kids, Get A Room With Carson And Thom, a Camping/Splitting Up Together comparison, and a German Flying Circus before Dylan Garsee hoped an RPDR All Stars episode would get to sashay-you-stay into the Canon. A Midwife won, Marvel lost, and a monstrous game time had us all screaming -- on an all-new Extra Hot Great.

When the most exciting thing about a new show is the moment David T. Cole rechristens it Men Of A Certain Beige, you know you've got problems...but returning guest Jeb Lund soldiered bravely through our grumpy discussion of ABC's attempt to throw This Is Us, Desperate Housewives, and thirtysomething in a blender. We went around the dial with the new Murphy Brown, HBO's Jane Fonda docu, Ken Burns's Prohibition, a plea to reboot Behind The Music, and Dave's French stand-up TV forcening. Jeb hoped we wouldn't declare his House Canon submission dead on arrival before we named Kareem Abdul Jabbar a winner and Weiner a loser, and tossed around a pay-cable pomme frite with an all-HBO Hot Potato. Come for the tasteless puns on "Rutledge"; stay for Sarah saying the phrase "stunt penis" too many times in an all-new Extra Hot Great.

After the successes of its Hawaii Five-0 and MacGyver remakes, CBS has turned west -- way west -- to bring Thomas Magnum to a new generation. Did it work? We invited Stephen J. Skelton and Todd Robert Anderson, co-hosts of the Film Pigs podcast and die-hard fans of the original, to dissect 2018's Magnum P.I. (KEEP YOUR COMMA, GRANDPA). Around The Dial takes us through New Amsterdam (no relation to the one from ten years ago), Netflix's Maniac, The Good Place, and Family Ties. We then go back in time to consider the original Magnum, P.I. with a Canon submission for the two-part Season 3 premiere, "Did You See The Sunrise?" Then we name the week's Winner and Loser and move on to another installment of Backdoor Pilots from our old friend Dan Cassino. Put Zeus and Apollo in their crates and join us!

BoJack Horseman dropped another season last weekend -- along with practically every other streaming show, but this simultaneously hilarious, dirty, and dark animated dramedy is the one we chose to discuss, along with the correct amount of Todd; background hilarity; and spot-on guest casting. We went Around The Dial with Forever, The First, Deutschland 83 and 86, the newest American Horror Story, and a years-in-the-making verdict on whether Dave hated Troy: Fall Of A City, and Adam hoped to declare mission accomplished on his submission of the Alias two-part second-season finale for the Canon. Aaron "Todd" Paul won, the Downey/Burnett household lost, and we went through the stages of TV relationships in a quotable Game Time from Caroline. Don't be a neigh-sayer: give Episode 219 a listen!
