Bewitched

Darrin (Dick York/Dick Sargent) and Samantha Stephens (Elizabeth Montgomery) are a young, bi-species married couple: he's a mortal human being, she's a witch, something which she does not divulge to him until after their wedding. Darrin just wants them to live a simple, mortal life, to which Samantha agrees, meaning no witchcraft and no telling any of their mortal friends and relatives of her being a witch. However, that no witchcraft vow is difficult to maintain if only because of Samantha wanting or needing to use it to get out of one scrape or another, and her relatives, especially her mother Endora (Agnes Moorehead), the most constant thorn in Darrin's side, against the marriage and the idea of denying Samantha's heritage as a witch. Mortals in their lives also add to their complicated lives: Darrin's friend and spendthrift boss, Larry Tate (David White) of McMann and Tate Advertising, who always wants Darrin to do all the work while the company gets all the glory and money; their nosy neighbors, the Kravitzes, Gladys Kravitz (Sandra Gould/Alice Pearce), who always arrives at the most inopportune time to show her exasperated husband Abner Kravitz (George Tobias) that something funny is going on in the Stephens house; and Darrin's parents, his mother, Phyllis Stephens (Mabel Albertson), who is prone to splitting headaches which become more prevalent as she thinks she sees things in Samantha that just couldn't be in her mortal view. That complicated life gets even more complicated when they start a family, the children who could be mortal or who could be witches and warlocks.

04E32 - Man of the Year

Darrin has been named one of the Advertising Men of the Year by the Huxter's Club. Darrin downplays the honor, despite McMann & Tate planning to host a cocktail party in his honor, and he wanting to celebrate with Samantha with a night on the town. Endora believes that under that surface of humility lies an egomaniac. As such, she places a spell around him where every mortal will agree with what he says, no matter how bad the idea, to see how he reacts. Darrin ends up loving the fact that clients, politicians and even Mr. McMann love what he says, so much so that he comes to believe he is unstoppable. It isn't until Samantha is in his company with his business associates at the cocktail party and she sees the reaction of those around him that she figures out what's going on. The questions then become how Darrin will react to him not being the golden boy he thought he was, and how he will continue to impress those around him in the future.
