If we’re being perfectly honest, it was always going to end like this. Parks and Rec is a show that in many ways defined a generation, at least the generation currently attending American University. What better way to show its support throughout campus, in Tinder bios, and on Freshmen dorm floor themes than a birth in this, the final round. Its opponent? The episode of TV that in all honesty started this bracket in the first place. Ask many people what their favorite episode of Suite Life was, and they will likely say this. Two juggernauts who worked their way through similar and different shows. Two episodes from the start of the tournament that seemed destined to fight for a championship 

So click down below, pick the episode you think is deserving of the title of Best TV Halloween Episode Ever, and check back tomorrow to see who wins.

(4) “Greg Pikitis” Parks and Recreation vs (6) “The Ghost in Suite 613” The Suite Life of Zack & Cody

“Greg Pikitis” Parks and Recreation - S2E7

Like most other shows that SIS Majors use to show they have a personality, Parks has a plethora of solid Halloween themed episodes. This one is set against the backdrop of Ann’s Halloween party, and most of the Parks staff is centered there. The B storyline however follows Leslie as she tries to catch series favorite Greg Pikitis in the act of vandalizing the statue of Mayor Percy. This episode is also the first appearance of Burt Maklin, and for that it deserves a spot in this Halloween Bracket. Also my personal highlight is what I think is Mark’s custom Pacers jersey.

“The Ghost in Suite 613” The Suite Life of Zack & Cody - S1E19

It’s a classic and for many (my roommate included) the only episode we can coherently remember. The basic plot follows the twins along with London and Maddie as they investigate the rumors of a ghost which resides in room 613 of The Tipton Hotel. Highlights of the episode include Esteban getting possessed and yelling at London, a deaged Mr. Mosbey and Arwin eating a sub that is literally just a loaf of bread.
