Exclusive First Look: ‘Single Parents’ Kids’ Hilarious Halloween Costumes Revealed!

Get ready for a Halloween celebration like no other on ABC’s hit comedy, Single Parents! As the spooky season descends, our favorite group of single parents and their quirky children are gearing up for an unforgettable episode. HollywoodLife is thrilled to bring you an exclusive sneak peek with first-look photos that are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. This year, the show has truly outdone itself, delivering a costume concept that’s as clever as it is adorable: the kids are dressing up as their own parents!

The highly anticipated Oct. 30 episode of Single Parents promises a delightful twist on traditional Halloween fun. In a stroke of comedic genius, the second season sees the Hilltop Elementary gang embracing their inner adults – quite literally! Emma and Amy, the spirited Fogerty twins, perfectly embody Will Cooper and Miggy Park. Their costumes are uncannily accurate, right down to the detailed accessories. The girls are seen sporting Bjorns, each holding a baby doll meant to represent the always-adorable baby Jack, adding an extra layer of meta-humor to their transformation into the single dads. Their portrayal highlights the often-overlooked responsibilities and distinctive quirks of Will and Miggy, offering a child’s innocent yet perceptive take on their fathers’ personas.

Meanwhile, young Graham D’Amato, known for his unique insights and artistic flair, transforms into Poppy Banks. Complete with a vibrant red dress and a perfectly styled wig, Graham’s costume is a hilarious nod to Poppy’s dynamic and stylish personality, showcasing her entrepreneurial spirit and fashion sense. It’s a testament to the show’s writing that even the children’s costumes manage to encapsulate the essence of their parental counterparts. Rory Banks, ever the meticulous and thoughtful one, steps into the professional shoes of Douglas Fogerty, donning a crisp doctor’s uniform. This choice perfectly aligns with Douglas’s career as a dermatologist and his often-serious, yet caring, demeanor, making Rory’s rendition both endearing and comically precise. Rounding out the parental impersonations, Sophie Cooper chooses to channel her mom, Angie D’Amato. Sophie’s costume captures Angie’s relatable, sometimes chaotic, yet always loving spirit, reflecting her journey as a single mom trying to navigate life’s challenges. The sheer joy and effort the children have put into these costumes are palpable in every exclusive photo, creating a truly memorable Halloween spectacle for viewers.

But the costume fun doesn’t stop with the older kids. Baby Jack, the youngest member of the core group and Miggy’s adorable son, also gets his moment in the Halloween spotlight. Miggy, in a move that only Miggy could pull off, dresses his son as Wilson the volleyball from the iconic Tom Hanks film Cast Away. This incredibly cute and clever costume choice is a true highlight, showcasing Miggy’s playful spirit and the show’s penchant for pop culture references. Baby Jack, with his painted “face” and spherical charm, is undeniably adorable, adding another layer of delightful eccentricity to the episode. These imaginative outfits underscore the fact that Single Parents has once again raised the bar for television Halloween episodes, proving that creativity and humor can go hand-in-hand to deliver a truly unique holiday special.

Beyond the fantastic costumes, the Oct. 30 episode is packed with comedic plotlines and relatable parenting struggles. The official synopsis for the episode, aptly titled “Welcome to Hilltop Manor,” reveals that “It’s Halloween night at Hilltop Elementary and the kids head to the school for a spooky celebration with Douglas.” Douglas Fogerty, always the pragmatist and surprisingly organized, is tasked with overseeing the school’s festive gathering, promising a blend of his dry wit and unexpected warmth amidst the spooky decorations and excited children.

One of the central dilemmas of the episode revolves around Will Cooper, played by the hilarious Taran Killam. Will finds himself in a classic single-parent quandary: torn between his duties as a father and his blossoming romantic life. He “struggles with whether he should stay with Sophie at the school party or if he should swing by his girlfriend Tracy Freeze’s birthday, which results in a stressful night for Will trying to do both.” This predicament perfectly encapsulates the challenges many single parents face, constantly juggling their children’s needs with their personal lives, often leading to frantic attempts to be in two places at once. Viewers can expect a lot of physical comedy and internal monologues as Will tries to navigate this delicate balance, undoubtedly leading to some laugh-out-loud moments as his meticulously planned schedule inevitably goes awry, highlighting the humorous chaos of single parenthood.

Meanwhile, another captivating storyline unfolds involving Poppy Banks (Kimrie Lewis) and Angie D’Amato (Leighton Meester). These two best friends and fellow single mothers decide to host their own Halloween party for teens at Douglas’s house. Their motivation is hilariously relatable: they are “trying to prove to themselves that they are cool moms.” This plot promises a treasure trove of comedic situations as Poppy and Angie attempt to impress a demographic notoriously difficult to please. Will their efforts to curate the ultimate “cool” teen party succeed, or will they discover that true coolness comes from embracing their authentic, slightly chaotic, mom selves? Their joint venture into teen party planning is sure to be filled with awkward dance moves, questionable music choices, and heartfelt moments of friendship as they navigate the often-intimidating world of adolescent social dynamics. It’s a storyline that perfectly complements the show’s theme of finding your identity and confidence as a single parent, even when faced with the judgment of teenagers, ultimately reinforcing their bond.

The brilliance of Single Parents lies in its ability to blend heartwarming narratives with sharp, observational humor. The show consistently highlights the unique challenges and triumphs of a group of single parents navigating their lives in the modern world. From dating woes to school fundraisers, and everything in between, the series finds comedy in the everyday struggles, fostering a sense of community and understanding among its characters and its audience. Halloween episodes, in particular, are a staple of many beloved sitcoms, often providing an opportunity for characters to step outside their usual personas, leading to memorable comedic scenarios and deeper character insights. This episode, with its deeply personal and self-aware costume choices, is poised to be a standout in the show’s already impressive run, offering both laughter and a touch of heartfelt reflection on the parent-child dynamic.

The stellar ensemble cast brings these delightful characters to life with impeccable comedic timing and genuine warmth. The series stars Taran Killam as the endearing Will Cooper, Leighton Meester as the fiercely independent Angie D’Amato, Kimrie Lewis as the vibrant Poppy Banks, and Jake Choi as the free-spirited Miggy Park. The talented child actors are equally integral to the show’s success: Marlow Barkley as the insightful Sophie Cooper, Tyler Wladis as the delightfully quirky Graham D’Amato, Devin Trey Campbell as the sharp-witted Rory Banks, Mia Allan and Ella Allan as the inseparable twins Emma Fogerty and Amy Fogerty, and finally, the legendary Brad Garrett as the dryly humorous Douglas Fogerty. Their chemistry is undeniable, making every episode a joy to watch and contributing significantly to the show’s charm and success.
