WordWorld’s Halloween Episode Review
Earlier this month WordWorld’s Halloween themed episode calle “A Kooky Spooky Halloween/Sheep’s Halloween Costume” premiered on PBS. I recorded it and just recently got around to watching it.
The first part “A Kooky Spooky Halloween” is about Pig trying to finish the bags of treats the night before Halloween. He just needs the Bs to finish them and is convinced to go to bed by Ant and finish them in the morning. Pig is troubled by not having the Bs and ended up sleepwalking. As he sleepwalks he takes the Bs from different word items in WordWorld. He also ends up scaring some of the WordWorld friends because he sleepwalks with a bed sheet on and ends up looking like a ghost.
The second part “Sheep’s Halloween Costume” is about Sheep helping the other WordWorld friends get ready for Halloween by giving them the last thing they need for their costume. He then ends up without a costume because he gave all the pieces to his friends. In the end his friends return the favor and help him recreate his costume.
Overall this is a fun Halloween episode that includes a very minimally creepy Halloween first part and a very friendly second part. I found it to be a pretty good episode and it is great that both parts are Halloween themed, as it seems that sometimes shows with two parts only have one part themed by the holiday.
If you missed it the few times it has already played this month, then do not worry. You can still catch it Monday, October 27, 2008, and Friday, October 31, 2008, on most PBS channels. Check your local television listings to find out what exact time the episode may be on in your area.
