Are there any scheduled Halloween cartoons coming up this season? I would like to see Charlie Brown, Garfield, and any others. Is Cartoon Network doing anything?

The WB turns into The WBOO! and will have its first ever all-original Halloween themed programming line-up on Friday, October 24 (8:00-10:00 pm ET/PT). The WB will kick-off the fright-night festivities with the second original primetime special for the network, A Scooby-Doo Halloween at 8:00 pm ET/PT, followed by everyone's favorite mischievous rabbit up to his usual pranks in Bugs Bunny's Howl-Oween Special at 8:30 pm ET/PT (EDIT ON 10/15: BUGS BUNNY SPECIAL HAS BEEN CANCELED) and the hilarious horrors in The WB's Outrageous Halloween Outtakes at 9:00-10:00 pm ET/PT (EDIT ON 10/15: THE SPECIAL WILL AIR FROM 8:30-9:30PM NOW). The following is a look at the specials:

* From Warner Bros. Animation, The WB introduces the second primetime special for the network, A Scooby-Doo Halloween at 8:00 pm ET/PT. The animated special is yet another extension of the Scooby-Doo brand, which also includes the Kids' WB! all-original series What's New Scooby-Doo?
In this primetime special, the Scooby Gang heads to the eerie town of Banning Junction to spend Halloween with Velma's aunt (voiced by Julia Sweeney), uncle (voiced by Diedrich Bader) and the very beautiful and equally flirtatious cousin Marcy (voiced by Jenny McCarthy). The gang joins the townspeople in celebrating their renowned "100 Years of Halloween" festivities - including a crowning of the Queen of the Masquerade Ball and an amped out performance by the hottest rock band in the world KISS (with the voice of Paul Stanley). As strange and spine-tingling things begin to happen, a fearful townswoman (voiced by Rhea Perlman) proclaims it is the ghost of Hank Banning, the town's founder and ousted mayor, back to seek revenge on the town that wronged him 100 years ago - as his declared prophecy comes true with signs in the corn fields. While Shaggy (voiced by Casey Kasem) and Scooby (voiced by Frank Welker) anxiously await to meet KISS, go trick-or-treating for tons of candy and have - not regular scary, but Halloween scary - fun...they reluctantly aid Fred (voiced by Welker), Daphne (voiced by Grey Delisle) and Velma (voiced by Mindy Cohn) in putting their investigative skills to work in hopes of revealing who is really behind the Halloween mischief...and turning this night into bad, old regular scary! Additional guest-voice appearances in the special include Stacy Keach, Tom Kenny and Daran Norris.

(EDIT ON 10/15: BUGS BUNNY SPECIAL HAS BEEN CANCELED)
* Bugs Bunny's Howl-Oween Special at 8:30 pm ET/PT - Featuring Warner Bros. Animation and Hanna-Barbera classic cartoon characters, Bugs takes on ghosts, ghouls and goblins in this "trick-or-treat" holiday tale. Off trick-or-treating disguised as a witch, Bugs arrives at witch Hazels' door and she, taking him for the real thing, considers him an enemy - and tries to eliminate him with one of her special brews. In the adventures that ensue, Witch Hazel and Bugs try to best each other as the #1 Halloween scare, involving a number of innocent bystanders along the way. Before the night is out, Tweety and Daffy Duck will become monsters, Speedy Gonzales will become Witch Hazel's double and Porky Pig and Sylvester will attempt to fend off the "hare-raising" haunts. The special features the voice characterizations of voice-over legends Mel Blanc and June Foray.

(EDIT ON 10/15: THE SPECIAL WILL AIR FROM 8:30-9:30PM NOW).
* The WB's Outrageous Halloween Outtakes at 9:00-10:00 pm ET/PT- Hosted by Anthony Anderson (All About the Andersons), who is in Scary Movie 3, this 1-hour Halloween Outtakes special consists of bloopers from more than a dozen horror movies, including classics The Exorcist, The Howling, Young Frankenstein, the re-make of Willard, and the acclaimed television series The X-Files. The special also will include hidden camera/practical jokes & hilarious Halloween home video.
