October has arrived, and that means Halloween season is here. We have a bunch of holiday treats lined up for you at the end of the month, but who says you can't start early with some eerie television? We picked a couple seasonally appropriate episodes to get you in the pumpkin mood. You can also check out a pilot for a failed Star Trek spin-off starring Teri Garr and a fantastic showcase for the great Betty White.

Without further ago, here are five must-see shows on the schedule this week.
