Halloween episode

7.0

By Lostindharma, Aug 02, 2012

At the start of Season 4. Hilary loses her finance, Trevor. Besides at the start of the season, I don't feel they really dealt with it much. I understand that she is a main character, but I feel that it could've done better. They did it somewhat in this episode. You are lead to believe what is happening to the family is real. Maybe it's just me but the guy who placed the hex, remained me a little of gay Jerry from Parks and Rec. I also liked Carlton's costume. Nice reference to a good movie (Home Alone)

My biggest complaint about this episode was after Will woke up and he went back to the house, the sequence was the same as the dream. Still a good episode.moreless

This halloween Hiliary,tells her family that she got booked with an TV psychic for an seance.So she can contact with Trevor from the beyond.Of course they didn't want to do it.But in the end they all went.As they arrive during the seance,he channels and manage to get an hold of Trevor.Hiliary asked if he knew where the purse was.Will begin to think that this seance is an fake.Which got the guy mad and put an Hex curse on him.Everything went fine at the home.However things wrong very wrong.Hiliary begin to fall in love with Jazz.They were going to plan to get married.Everyone blames Will for this of course.In the end Will went to talk to the guy to break the curse.

Yeah but this was only an dream.However it seemed to repeat itself was it even an dream good questioned? But this was funny.moreless

hrmrmhhmmrhm..... okay

9.0

By Spyke1012, Jul 15, 2007

This episode is one of my favorites, but it's kind of hard to explain...My mouth dropped WIDE open when jazz and hilary.... yeah... it was just kind of creepy... The part with phil flying out the front door was funny! I thought vivian was a little harsh when she told will to move out, but i guess that's just how aunt viv rolls. The seyonce(thats probably misspeled) scene was i felt... lacking. I think they should have at least showed trevor. I dont know, that's just me. Also, Scorpio was kinda creepy and he looked like he was, yaknow. A few Llamas short of a petting zoo.moreless

8.5

By Flipitop14, Jul 08, 2007

I thought this episode is true but it is not true because Will have a bad dream. Yes, I like Will's dream. It's because I love curse and scary. I was like oh my god that Jazz and Hillary were make out then she said we're get married. Thank goodness it is Will's dream. LoL Carlton's hair looks weird. And someone else throws tennis to Ashley the throw tennis ball and it looks really fast! I notice that everyone got curse because of Scorpius. Finally, Will woke up at morning. Will was glad that he just had a bad dream. Later Hillary was date with someone else. Then Will said, "Who?" Hillary said, "Trevor". Will got scream and he said NO! I bet Will's dream was still and not woke up yet. I just my guess.moreless

Hex and the Single Guy

8.5

By jimbo_001, Jan 01, 2007

This episode works very well with the alternate reality type setting and I found the episode entertaining because it is so out there and crazy aswell as being utterly hilarious with the ridiculous séance, Carlton’s costume and the different hex problems.

The ending was also terrific for a Halloween episode, taking déjá vu to the Groundhog Day level of zaniness and really sums up the hilarious parodical theme of horror that the episode involved which was quite amusing.

Overall, the episode certainly had its faults because of the different set up of the episode but it was hilarious for the same reason and since it’s Halloween, stranger television has happened.moreless
