5.0 out of 5 stars Classic episodes of a timeless series, March 6, 2003

By	Simon Davis - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

"Bewitched" would have to be one of the most beloved series to ever grace our television and with its superb casting, great writing, imaginative premise, and sheer likeability it continues to enchant and entertain viewers long after more supposedly "realistic" series are forgotten.

The special magic (no pun intended) of "Bewitched" lay in the performers who regularly appeared on the show throughout its eight seasons on prime time television. Elizabeth Montgomery was born to play the part of the lovely witch Samantha and rarely has a role been better suited to a performer than here. Combined with such gifted performers as Dick York as husband Darrin, Agnes Moorehead as the interfering mother-in-law Endora (in a classic performance) and Marion Lorne, Paul Lynde, and David White among many gifted others, the show was blessed with talent in abundance. Never has this talent been so much on show as in the 1967 to 1968 fourth season of the program when "Bewitched", really peaked and in this video we are lucky to have three of the best episodes from that season for our enjoyment. "No Zip in my Zap"' "Allergic to Macedonian Dodo Birds", and finally "Samantha's Thanksgiving to Remember" are all wonderful in their own different ways and really show the diverse talents of this marvellous cast.

"Zap" tells the story of Samantha losing her powers and Darrin (wrongly) thinking that she is spying on him by turning herself into a fly while he visits a new female client who also happens to be an old beau from his school days. This episode features the wonderful chemistry of Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York and was really well ahead of its time by featuring a high profile manager of a company who happens to be a woman with young children. "Macedonian Dodo", is one of the great classic episodes of the series and features an absolutely hilarious and scene stealing performance by the wonderful Agnes Moorehead at her wicked best. Here we find Endora losing her powers from her contact with a rare Dodo bird and her powers being transferred to the lovable but bumbling Aunt Clara who's powers were failing and was famous on the show for getting her spells mixed up. The scenes in this episode of Endora literally driving poor Darrin beserk with her helpless act and still failing to get his name right are absolutely priceless and help explain why "Bewitched", won such acclaim for its acting performances in the 1960's. This episode is the highlight of the tape and is worth seeing on its own. The last episode on the tape is the one and only Thanksgiving episode filmed on the show and again involves the hapless Aunt Clara who when visiting Samantha and Darrin at Thanksgiving unintentionally zaps the whole family plus nosy neighbour Mrs. Kravitz back to the first Thanksgiving at Plymouth . The times being what they are witches are routinely burned and ironically its Darrin who finds himeslf being accused of being a witch when he lights a fire with a match! Samantha's wonderful speech at the trial regarding tolerance and respect for people's differences provides food for thought even now and was definately one of the most special moments in the entire run of "Bewitched".

These three episodes make wonderful viewing and show off "Bewitched", at its very best, full of laughs, warm sentimental moments and as a jog to our way of thinking about how we should really treat each other. It's those very qualities that make "Bewitched", as entertaining today as it was back in the 1960's. I never tire of watching this program and it's the cast and their exceptional talents that keep me coming back for more. Enjoy the magical delight of three of the very best episodes of this classic series "Bewitched".

5.0 out of 5 stars Bewitched!, December 3, 2000

By A Customer

This video contains 3 of the best episodes of that great TV show, "Bewitched". See why this show was ahead of its time with "Samantha's Thanksgiving to Remember" (but that one actually goes back in time) and "No Zip in my Zap". "Allergic to Macedonian Dodo Birds" is also very funny. Awesome acting, fun stories, and great script make this a video to treasure.
