With Halloween falling on a weekday again, several of the morning and daytime talk shows celebrated the holiday by wearing costumes. George Clooney and his new wife Amal were a popular choice, with both Ellen DeGeneres and Good Morning America co-host George Stephanopoulos, joined by his wife Ali Wentworth, both dressing up as parts of the couple.
While Stephanopoulos greyed his hair and wore a suit and sunglasses, DeGeneres wore a wedding dress and dark wig and attached a life-size Clooney doll. She debuted her costume by walking out of the couple's famous People magazine cover.
“I like Halloween because it’s the one time of year you can dress up however you want, and pretend you’re someone you’d never be in real life," DeGeneres joked. "For me, that’s married to a man.”
Check out video of DeGeneres' Halloween special, including her costumed guests, as well the costumes worn by Good Morning America, Today and Fox & Friends.
[Editor's note: Video and more shows will be added throughout the day as today's episodes air and videos are posted online.]

She was joined by Today correspondent Jenna Bush Hager and former co-host Meredith Vieira. The SNL-Today switch continued with Kenan Thompson playing Al Roker, delivering a weather report and introducing the segment.
