Adam, Warlock or Washout? - S8-E14

Character mistake: In Season 3, Witches and Warlocks are My Favorite Things, Maurice says he won't stay for Tabitha's testing coven because it's "women's work" but in this episode, when Adam is finally tested, he arrives and says he wouldn't miss seeing his grandchild being tested.

The Cat's Meow - S1-E18

Character mistake: When Darrin is on the deck of the yacht, he says something about the salt air. The problem is earlier he was told that he was going to Chicago to meet Miss Marshall for a dinner meeting. The only body of water to support a yacht 3 miles off shore is Lake Michigan which is fresh water.

Playmates - S4-E26

Character mistake: Samantha calls Darrin's mother "Mother Stephens" throughout episode. In most episodes, she is "Mrs. Stephens." I can't find any other episode where she is "Mother Stephens".

Mistakes

Santa Comes to Visit and Stays and Stays - S6-E14

Plot hole: Mrs. Kravitz, while standing in the Stephenses' front doorway, sees Santa Claus and assumes that it's Darrin in costume. However, the very next shot shows Santa exiting the kitchen (around the corner from the front door) and starting up the hallway toward the living room. There is no possible way Mrs. Kravitz could have seen him when she said she did. (00:09:30)

Trivia

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.

Questions

I'd Rather Twitch Than Fight - S3-E10

Question: Darren was angry at Samantha for getting rid of his favorite coat so, why was he even angrier when he got it back?

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.
