It was her fault it broke. Why would she even put it on the set before the background had been painted. I knew it was a goner as soon as the Elizabeth started painting. Even with the bike they would have been in the bottom because their set was so empty compared to the other teams. Glad they were saved though. I like Elizabeth. She seems to be calm and steady with very little drama, which is probably what kept Jewell from losing her mind when the bike was broken. Elizabeth is too nice and non-combative to go ballistic on. I would like the lady from the team that made the Frankenstein heart basket with the bow on top to tone the hell down. Everybody on the show is amazingly talented, special and a threat. You and your teammates are not the only ones. That's why you were all chosen to compete. When I heard her over-confidently describe that heart basket my first thought was "wow that's kind of messy".

The fake drama of past years continues and it usually revolves around some nitwit who put a sugar piece on early so that when they’re finishing, someone shatters it. My eyes almost roll out of my head and onto the HW set when that happens. Years ago, there was a holiday version of HW and it went away for a while. But I just heard that there will be a one show competition of Holiday Wars on November 25 and Jonathan will host.

BurntWaffle October 25, 2018 Share October 25, 2018 I really hope none of the drama is staged. A cooking competition show should be interesting enough on its own without scripted drama bits. As I have said before, I'm a Shelby fan, and she's kinda playing up to the vibe she gives off at times, maybe not "flighty", but careless when that clock is ticking down. When she has to literally paint their entire display on top of her other duties, then it's easier to see how the time crunch made her overlook the basics, like taste-testing and wearing the proper gloves. I couldn't believe the Chinese Takeout won the Small Scare competition because, outside of the skull stamp, it was really blah and bland. I thought the fortune cookies looked bad too. Zesty Zombies Pizza creation deserved to win, with only the box lid really being the weak point of the display. So, maybe Zesty Zombies would have had that extra helper, and maybe that would have helped them avoid the tasting element fiasco? Who knows. I do think the King Arthur display was the best of the final displays, with only that Slip 'N Slide moat water being the weak point. Did anyone catch how they made the ghost float? I feel silly asking, because it's probably something so obvious, but it's an awesome effect.

dotdot October 29, 2018 Share October 29, 2018 (edited) I wish they would've come up with a better theme for the finale. An antidote for an outbreak just doesn't make for very spooky designs. I wish they would've chosen something a little scarier and along the lines of Halloween, like demons, vampires, ghosts, etc. Also, after watching some of the reruns of previous seasons, it just seems like the talent/designs in those seasons were way better IMO.

mlp October 29, 2018 Share October 29, 2018 This was easily the weakest season IMO. The final two displays would have been also-rans in any other season. I thought the one that won was miles better than the mess that came in second. I did think the losing team's Small Scare was better than the all red baby devil. However, I wondered if it was an original design. Shin Min said something about having seen or maybe done a book like that and I had the impression that she'd seen the idea before. Could be totally wrong of course. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15939-halloween-wars-general-discussion/page/7/#findComment-4792170

I so agree. The theme was too open-ended. Even narrowing it down to, say, what goes on in the sewer on Halloween or what happens at the bat family reunion, something like that might lead to creepier characters. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15939-halloween-wars-general-discussion/page/7/#findComment-4792472

I felt much of the drama (bickering) this year was manufactured. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/15939-halloween-wars-general-discussion/page/7/#findComment-4792602
