Everyone is a little guilty of celebrating cancelled plans and spending some QT with Netflix. But when Halloween rolls around, it’s time to get those creative juices flowing to make sure the costumes (and everything else) are ready for the party. It turns out that all of that time spent with Netflix paid off — combining your love for your shows with the best holiday around can make for some seriously spot-on costumes.

18. Liz Lemon, 30 Rock: Ain’t no costume like a Liz Lemon costume, ’cause a Liz Lemon costume is mandatory. Well, not really. But who doesn’t want to hang out with Jack Donaghy and work on their night cheese? (via Newly Domesticated)
19. Peg Bundy, Married With Children: Because any woman that can deal with Al Bundy deserves a Halloween costume. (via hmmmbymel)

30. Jem, Jem & The Holograms: This show had every ’80s girl dreaming of starting a rock band. And any excuse to rock a pink wig makes for an A+ costume. (via Deviant Art)
31. Lucy, I Love Lucy: If you decide to dress as the legendary Lucille Ball for Halloween, you have to do it right. Don your best red lipstick, practice your dramatic faces and rock those polka dots. (via The Fiercest Lilli Putian)
