The MacGyver episode The Secret of Parker House was a Halloween episode. It was season 4 episode 1. The description on the DVD says:
"MacGyver accompanies his friend Penny Parker (Teri Hatcher) to an old house she inherited from her aunt, but he suspects foul play when the house appears to be haunted."

Pretty much this story can happen anytime but what tied it to Halloween is you can see a quick shot of kids trick-or-treating.

I think there are two holiday related MacGyver episodes in season five. I'm currently near the end of season four so once I get into season 5 I'll let you know.

you forgot one Lois and Clark Christmas episode "Home is where the Hurt is". Its when Lois and Clark are engaged, Season 3.
Disney Channel died when they stopped airing movies with Haley mills (Parent Trap and Pollyanna) and fun adventure movies like Swiss Family Robinson. R.I.P. the REAL Disney Channel. Date of Death: When the shows became teenie bopperish.

The episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 where they watch "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" is on the DVD, "Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Essentials"

But the episode where they watch "Santa Claus" (that terrifying Mexio film with satan and scary looking mechanical reindeer) is not. :roll:

Is "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" the name of the episode?

Since it's that time of year where Halloween stuff has started to show-up in stores, I thought I'd bump this thread so it's not lost and maybe other members have something to add. Bump.

PS: I was going to add another MacGyver episode to the list but I see that it is already there under Halloween.
