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)

No More Mr. Nice Guy - S3-E28

Other mistake: In the opening scene, Endora disappears then reappears for Tabitha. If you watch closely, just before she reappears you can see the shadow of Agnes Morehead/Endora on the wall behind the couch quickly coming back to the couch for the camera cut to recapture her.

Show generally

Revealing mistake: The series is supposed to take place in Westport, CT. Westport, CT doesn't have palm trees or the California mountains. Several shots outside of the house reveal the mountains and palm trees are when driving in several episodes.

Samantha's Witchcraft Blows a Fuse - S8-E25

Continuity mistake: The hole (square cut out) is visible in the carpet before they fall through. Also, when Dr. Bombay "cures" Samantha and she floats, the hole in the floor beside the couch is gone. Dr. Bombay fixed the floor in the next shot (when asked). The floor without the hole is visible when Dam floats up and when Darrin and Bombay walk over to her.

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

More quotes from Bewitched

Trivia: The Screen Gems sets of Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie were right next to each other at the studio, and many of the actual sets and props were shared between the two shows. Both shows also shared Dick Albain, the Special Effects expert, who worked on the two shows for quite awhile.

More trivia for Bewitched

Answer: Larry had been telling Darrin what it means psychologically that Samantha gave the coat away. Larry said giving it away meant she's happy being married but if she liked the coat it means she desires to be single and carefree. So when Darrin sees the coat, he immediately thinks Samantha doesn't want to be married and the fact that she twitched it means (in his mind) she wants to be a single, carefree witch again.

Answer: I haven't seen the episode, but generally in the show, Darrin was always suspicious that Samantha always used some kind of witchcraft for any situation (even if she didn't). He probably figured the same thing with the coat while in her possession.

You should watch the episodes in question before giving an answer so you know what you're talking about.
