... View MoreA lot of fun.
... View MoreThis is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
... View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
... View MoreI suppose it's cute enough, as shows from the time period go. I watched all the episodes... Tough and tangy, full of innuendo, and minimal plot line (thinner than cheap copy paper). Sure, it's funny here and there, but that makes it all the more disappointing when the rest of it's so empty. I dunno. I thought the problem with the series was that it was in color. And then I watched the "unaired pilot." WOW! I fell right in love with it. How can a few minutes (comparitively) be so enchanting? I found that pilot to be very warm and amusing, very reminiscent of the original, in all good ways. I'll give lots of spoilers from that! If you enjoyed the original series, Bewitched, you'll remember the light touch and the gags. Well, the "pilot" that got dumped included references to scenes from the original series. Adam is the younger sibling, just like when he was born. And in this story-line, he's a warlock! Way more fun. Tabitha tries to tell her boyfriend she's a witch and has to keep transporting him around - just like her mom with her dad. The boyfriend asks her to prove it, just like her dad asked her mom. Then he goes to "think about it" by imbibing that which impairs judgement - just like her dad. There's a slightly nutty neighbor who keeps seeing things she's not supposed to. There's a shattered statue that's neither expensive or difficult to replace - if you're a witch. (wink) There's a whole lot more that got lost in "translation" when they shifted from classy to brassy. Seriously, who wrote Aunt Minervera's kinky character? And where oh where did Uncle Arthur get to?
... View MoreI have seen the show and bought the DVD and i was only watching it last knight i also have Season 1 & 2 Bewithched you can not beat a good bit of magic.Lisa Hartman as the best smile and is very good at being Tabatha and the rest of the cast or also good. its a shame it only made 12 episodes i would have liked to see more. it would have been nice for Tabathas mother Samantha and Darren to have made a guest appearance on the show. Admitted that the pilot for the show was not as good as it did not really think as in the pilot Tabathas brother also had magic powers but in bewitched Tabbatha's brother was as mortal as there farther Darren. Lisa Hartman makes a Great Tabatha.
... View Morefirst of all let me say i'm actually a big fan of both Lisa Hartman and Robert Irish. i enjoyed Ms Hartman in knots landing and a few appearances elsewhere and Mr Urich has been one of my favorite actors from swat to Spenser for hire and everything in between. that being said THIS SHOW SHOULD BE BURIED AS THE GARBAGE IT IS! number one Adam was the YOUNGER brother not the older brother to Tabitha. the actor is playing him in the series as nothing more then a whining wimp. Adam was not a mortal he was in fact a warlock which his father was very upset about. Tabitha is being played less like the strong willed woman her mother was and more like a pouting child the original pilot with liberty Williams was much better and Adam was played more like his mothers side of the family. Darrin must have been fit to be tied in that incarnation. she is definitely her daddies girl with enough of her mother to make it work
... View MoreAs another person wrote What WERE they thinking?! Lisa Hartman was very cute in 1977 but her acting was just plain bad. Perhaps the director told her eye rolling, pouting, huffing and over reacting to "frustrating" situations is funny. I'm also wondering if she was told to try to act like and mimic the wonderful Elizabeth Montgomery as her vocal inflections and reactions are suspiciously very similar. OK It was 1977 a long, long, long time ago so I will cut it some slack. If you watch it for the time warp factor alone (The clothes, the bad disco music, the cheesy laugh track, and the horribly written dialog complete with lines like "Right On" "Foxy Mama" and "Shed those groovy threads") its bearable. Other than that her brother Adam (who i really don't remember much in the original Bewitched) is a dweeb, Aunt Minerva is obnoxious at best and Robert Urich seems completely out of place. Its filmed very similar to many of the TV shows of the 70's - like Wonder Woman the music swells at every commercial break and every ending has to have a close up freeze of Wonder Woman (Diane Prince) smiling and or laughing telling us stupid at home viewers that everything turned out fine. Tabitha has its same bad endings but now we forced to watch Tabitha and the rest of the cast mugging and laughing to idiotic dialog. If it ever finds it's way to TV again its worth seeing just to say I'm embarrassed for everyone involved.2/10
