Starring: Agnes Moorehead, Dick York, David White, Elizabeth Montgomery
Other mistake: At the end of a scene showing the dog, the scene is reversed (mirror image) for a moment. (00:08:50)
Continuity mistake: When Rodney is at the bottom of the stairs announcing phase 1 of operation breakup is a success, Samantha is at the top of the stairs. The camera edit is really bad and Samantha jumps forward about 3 feet.
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?"
Question: In one episode (not sure which one but it was in the Dick York era), Darrin was arguing with Samantha and said something like "Confiding in a woman is like broadcasting by Telstar." What exactly does that mean and what was Telstar?
Answer: The Telstar Reference was in Dangerous Diaper Dan when Samantha engages in too much gossip.

Answer: Telstar was an early communications satellite system. Darrin, in a particularly sexist manner reflective of this era, is saying that telling a secret to a woman means it is guaranteed to be "broadcasted" to multiple people.
