The Moment of Truth - S3-E2

Continuity mistake: When Aunt Clara is in the kitchen with Tabitha, when Tabitha knocks off her plate then the unicorn, there is nothing on her high chair tray. When Tabitha twitches the pot and spoon over, there's suddenly a Graham Cracker on her tray where the spoon lands.

The Moment of Truth - S3-E2

Revealing mistake: When Aunt Clara "parachutes" in the background is not the neighborhood background shown throughout series with Kravitz across the street...and no pine forest. It's obvious a stage background.

A Most Unusual Wood Nymph - S3-E5

Continuity mistake: When Samantha gets up off the couch to confront the wood nymph, the pillow on the couch, on the left side of the screen, is laying flat. When they move back in front of the couch when Endora arrives, the pillow is standing up against the armrest.

Samantha's Witchcraft Blows a Fuse - S8-E25

Revealing mistake: When the officers pull away, the shadow of the car is visible on the painted backdrop of trees. This isn't the neighborhood of Morning Glory Circle with the Kravitz House across the street. The shadow reveals it's a stage backdrop. Further, this is basically the same as Allergic to the Macedonian DoDo Bird from Season 3, with the same DoDo Bird costume.

Samantha's Witchcraft Blows a Fuse - S8-E25

Other mistake: When the police pull up outside the Stephens' home, it is a set shot with fake background. The "road" doesn't match the outside of Stephens' neighborhood shown throughout the series with the Kravitz house across the street (and not a pine tree forest as shown here).

Be it Ever So Mortgaged - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: After Darrin arrives at the house and Sam goes outside to greet him and Endora disappears from the living room, there is no carpet runner/protector on the carpet leading to the patio door and the folding style patio door blinds are totally folded. When Darrin and Sam come into the house looking for Endora the carpet runner is there and the patio door blinds are partially open.

George the Warlock - S1-E30

Continuity mistake: When Darrin steps outside for the morning paper, neighbor Dora O' Riley is working on the lettering of her mailbox. Darrin gets locked out of his house. He goes to a window, turns back to Dora and says "I got locked out". The lettering on the mailbox is completely different. (00:00:48 - 00:01:27)

Jai Rodrigue

Take Two Aspirin - S2-E6

Other mistake: The map behind the officer is of Southern California. The series is supposed to be set in the NY tri-state area. (00:12:45)

Marriage, Witches' Style - S5-E21

Revealing mistake: At the end of the episode, during Serena and Samantha's second meeting with Mr. Beams, in the wideshots of the two women sitting on the couch and also when they're both poking their heads through the doorway, Serena's body double actually appears face-forward. Additionally, in the closeups of Serena and Sam on the couch, both are played by Elizabeth Montgomery, and we can see the wall's color difference behind them due to the use of the split-screen technique. (00:22:25)

Super Grover

Darrin Stephens: Sam, don't expect your mother to be gracious. She doesn't do imitations.

Samantha Fights City Hall - S5-E9

Trivia: Because Erin Murphy, who played Tabitha, was ill, her fraternal twin sister Diane took her place in this episode. By this time, Erin and Diane didn't resemble each other as much as they once did, and it was obvious to regular viewers of the show that it wasn't the Tabitha they were used to seeing. The producers received several letters asking "Who was that?"

Show generally

Question: Is there some reason why Samantha wears the same exact "Heart Pendant Necklace" in every single episode? It seems odd that she only has one necklace all the time.

Answer: The original diamond and white gold heart necklace was given to Elizabeth Montgomery by her then real-life husband, William Asher, who also directed the show. She wore it in nearly every early episode. When the necklace was lost or stolen about mid-way through the series, Montgomery had two replicas made from rhinestones. She wore either one of those for the rest of the show's run.
