Yahoo Movies Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest Head to Space in First Look at Live 's Halloween Extravaganza Episode
The annual Live with Kelly and Ryan Halloween extravaganza is back!
In PEOPLE's exclusive sneak peek at this year's event, Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest show off various different pop-culture-themed costumes, including spacesuits reminiscent of Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin crew. In all, the show will have 40 costume changes.
"I brought my nuts," Live producer Michael Gelman says in the new clip, while wearing a spacesuit and munching on a snack.
"Those are not Gelman's actual…" Ripa, 50, then teases, while Seacrest, 46, adds, "These are stage nuts."
Many of the costumes are references to hit TV shows from the past year, like Squid Game, The Masked Singer, Emily in Paris, Ted Lasso, Bridgerton and The Queen's Gambit.

Others call back to recent phenomenons — Seacrest dresses as Richard Simmons for one costume in a "retro spin on the current home workout craze," per a press release.
"We really spent some money on this one," Ripa says in the clip.
The Halloween countdown on Live will begin with the Oct. 25 episode and lead up to the main event on Oct. 29. In addition to the hosts' costumes, the celebration includes two contests for Live viewers: the virtual Halloween costume contest and the "spook-tacular" Halloween house contest.
Winners of the costume contest will be awarded prizes totaling $10,000, while the house winner could win a trip to Hawaii.

Ripa and Seacrest have a history of going big for Halloween on their titular talk show. Last year, their costumes included Tiger King's Joe Exotic and Carole Baskin, Schitt's Creek characters and their own unique take on the NBA bubble.
