With September in full swing, it's only a matter of time before the Halloween costumes start hitting the shelves. TV show characters are a tried-and-true favorite for all ages when it comes to Halloween costumes. For starters, there's plenty to choose from. Whether you're into comedies like Ted Lasso and Schitt's Creek, or you prefer to go with the trendiest options like Inventing Anna and Bridgerton, you can't go wrong when acting as your favorite small-screen star. TV show characters also provide the perfect opportunity to dress on a theme, especially with your significant other, as a family, or even with your furry best friend.

And, as we can say from experience, it's always best to get a head start on your costume. Even if you're planning on DIY-ing your outfit this year, supplies sell out quickly and you can expect price hikes the closer you get to Halloween. But, even if you wait until the last minute, plenty of these costumes can be quickly pulled together with minimal effort (looking at you, Anna Delvey), and you'll still be the most popular at the party.

Psssttt—looking for some of your favorite big screen characters? We've got them all here!
