1968  
 
With the help of a ouija board, Samantha and her daughter, Tabitha, accidentally come in contact with the ghost of self-made businessman Willie Baker (Harry Harvey Sr.). This leads to yet another dilemma when Willie begs Sam to stop his backward-looking nephew (J. Edward McKinley) from ruining the family business. Sam's efforts to grant Willie's wishes almost costs Darrin his job (again). Written by Robert Riley Crutcher, "Tabitha's Cranky Spell" (sometimes listed as "Tabatha's Cranky Spell") first aired on March 28, 1968. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

1967  
 
Darrin's new client, Mr. Hudson (Jack Collins), a strong advocate of family values, comes to the incredible conclusion that Darrin worships the ground his mother-in-law Endora walks on. Conversely, Hudson is convinced that Larry Tate is a scoundrel who mistreats his own in-laws. As a result, Larry fires Darrin for the umpteenth time, leading to even more complications -- including the mistaken belief that Darrin has been transformed into a pony. Written by Robert Riley Crutcher, "Solid Gold Mother in Law" originally aired on November 30, 1967. Curiously, this episode is missing from some of the syndicated Bewitched packages. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

George Sidney directs this pleasant romantic comedy concerning mayoral love. During a convention of mayors in San Francisco, Clarissa Standish (Loretta Young), the mayor of a small town in Maine, meets Steve Fisk (Clark Gable), the down-to-earth leader of a tiny northern California community. During the rowdy proceedings of the convention, the two find themselves pushed together frequently, with the typical result -- they fall in love. After the convention, the two head back to Steve's town, where crooked local politician Les Taggart (Raymond Burr) is squaring off against Fisk in a mayoral election. With the help of Clarissa, Steve gears up for his reelection bid. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi
