When it comes to Halloween costume ideas, most people fall into the slump of doing something trendy, hip, and relatively current.
Since Halloween is all about switching things up, I decided to offer my ideas that evoke some of our fondest childhood memories — our favorite throwback TV shows.
In an attempt to avoid mainstream cliched outfits, however, I focused mainly on supporting characters because they deserve some love too, and are practically guaranteed to transform you intoHalloQWEENS this year.
