Good Witch Halloween is a Special not the 1st Episode of Season 2!

I just not posted this on the "Good Witch" wiki but this is for those who are too lazy to read a Wiki?

Do NOT change this episode again "Good Witch Halloween" is a Special Episode NOT the 1st Episode of Season 2. Season 2 Does NOT Start until 2016! I have had to fix this 2 times now and I am sick of it, read this from the Hallmark Channel site - Coming Soon: The magic returns in 2016 with an all-new season of "Good Witch." - http://www.hallmarkchannel.com/good-witch-hallowee... - If you have a question or concern ask me - JAGUARDOG!

"Just in time for Halloween, the programming event presents a special two-hour sneak peek of "Good Witch" season two on Saturday, October 24"

Looks like it should be a special indeed, though belong to season 2 instead of season 1.

I've changed it to that, and the Episode Type & Episode Number are now automatically locked by our new Edit Conflict system.

I messaged him about it to make him aware of it.

"Hallmark Channel is pleased to announce its newest Original Primetime Series, “Good Witch,” starring Catherine Bell, James Denton and Bailee Madison, has received a second season renewal of 12 new episodes including a two-hour Fall 2015 premiere and 10 new hours to follow in early 2016. “Good Witch” has charmed audiences in its first season, becoming the network’s most-watched and highest-rated primetime drama in the time period."

This is what I'm seeing out there. Tonights would be the Season Kicker (Episode 1 & 2) with 10 more to follow. It can be a Special in some minds but the Episode list will be shy 2 episodes.

Even Looks like Wiki is listing it as Episode 1 for Season 2 (2015).

It's all how you read it and it's just perception. I guarantee this is not a regular Episode and it will not effect the Season 2 episodes. Even if it did a 2 Hour Made for TV Movie is not the equivalent of 2 Episodes. If it Ended at the first hour, rolled credits and the second hour started up the 2nd part by rolling credits again then it would be 2 but that did not happen! I watch this show all the time and I keep up with the Hallmark Channel and it's website but we all will have to wait and see won't we?

Thanks for weighing in here BigEd!

I understand the confusion, but all things considered it still looks like this should be a special.

- The network announces it as "a special two-hour sneak peek"

- They contradict themselves by talking about "12 episodes", while the episode was a single individual entity

- The length is twice as long as the regular episodes

- The episode airs months before the rest of the regular episodes
