Trivia: When Wanda, Vision and the kids are in the center of town preparing to battle their various opponents, the marquee of the theater in the background is advertising Oz the Great and Powerful. That film was directed by Sam Raimi, whose next film was Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which itself is a sequel of sorts to this show.

Continuity mistake: At Dottie's, when the ladies start saying in unison "For the children", Wanda is caught off guard with her hand on her mouth. But which hand? The right hand in the wide shot, the left one in close-up. (00:10:40)
Scarlet Witch: This is our home now. I want us to fit in.
On a Very Special Episode... - S1-E5
Question: The intro sequence for this episode seems most closely based on Growing Pains, with a dash of Family Ties, but the painting being coloured in really reminds me of something else, I assume another TV show, but can't place it. Any inspiration?
Answer: I noticed that too and although I can't think of any sitcom starting like that it does remind me strongly of Bob Ross "The Joy of Painting" intro, which was from the 80's as well.

Ah, that makes sense - I first saw this one on Youtube, which at a guess was the first season or an early version? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GPRdtO6UKD0. But yeah, this is exactly right: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ip1szfz9nZ8.
