- IndyCar's championship will be decided tonight. It's a fight between Scott Dixon and Helio Castroneves at Auto Club Speedway in California. Will Power will lead the field from pole at 8 ET on NBCSN.
- If you didn't get the reference in The Simpsons' third Treehouse of Horror XXIV story, "Freaks No Geeks", then turn in to Turner Classic Movies at 8:00pm for Freaks, the 1932 film about sideshow performers it was based on.
