The Today Show stars Meredith Vieira, Matt Lauer, Ann Curry and Al Roker celebrated Halloween — and likely frightened small children — during this morning's broadcast.

To be fair, when Matt Lauer had Robert Kennedy Jr. on his show to talk about the "Democratic activist's" new children's book, he probably thought it was going to be a breeze. But if there is one thing they teach you in Morning Show Journalism 101, it's that you never ask a Kennedy how a family member is doing. Because then you end up stuck in that uncomfortable position as The Soup's best clip of last week:
There are so many things wrong with this clip of Matt Lauer and Al Roker's rhythmic gymnastics routine from The Today Show that we don't even know where to begin. The two pranced around in spandex to "Dream Weaver," and the only entertaining part occurred when the other countries' competitors watched from the stands in horror. Go team!
These celebrity-Muppet comparisons are like every Muppet movie after Muppets Take Manhattan: Often they don't work, but when they do, they're hilarious

Just when I think Ice-T can't get any more offensive, he goes and compares his wife to a sports car. On a family game show. In front of his mother-in-law. Host Al Roker seemed surprisingly unfazed by the show of misogyny, though. The "Ice-T Family" competed against Joan Rivers and Co. on Celebrity Family Feud last night. The families play for charities — Ice-T's was a gang prevention program and Joan Rivers' was a charity that gives guide dogs to the blind. You don't have to watch until the end of the episode to know that a few blind people woke up in really good moods this morning.
The first topic was "something that's slippery and hard to hold onto." You know where this is going.
The Today Show this morning invited on Janice Dickinson, the self-proclaimed "world's first supermodel," to speak about the controversial Jennifer Love Hewitt photos currently sweeping the Internet.
Dickinson defended Hewitt, whom, upon the release of the pictures, many branded as fat, calling her "healthy." "You want to see someone who's fat," she said, "Tyra Banks is fat." Ha!
This could get bad (good?).
