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.

Samantha has no comeback from an accusation by a visiting Mrs. Stephens: that she is overprotective of Tabatha, who she sees as having no playmates her own age. So Samantha can't refuse a play date that Mrs. Stephens has arranged for Samantha and Tabatha with her old friend Gretchen Millhauser, who has just moved to the area, and her five year old son, Michael. Upon first meeting with Gretchen and Michael, Samantha can see that Gretchen believes in the parenting philosophy of free expression and permissiveness, which in Michael's case has resulted in him being a spoiled brat. Michael doesn't like Tabatha. The feeling is mutual. While the two children are alone, Tabatha, who has had enough of Michael bullying her, even with his mother around who still encourages her son to express himself freely, turns him into a bulldog. With Michael now missing and a bulldog in their presence, Gretchen and Mrs. Stephens try to find Michael and get rid of the dog, while Samantha tries to get the dog alone with Tabatha so that she can turn him back into Michael. This situation may inadvertently bring some much needed peace and a change in philosophy into the Millhauser home.
