Continuity mistake: The minute hand on the teakettle clock is between the 6 and the 7 when it's shown behind Samantha. When she goes to the closet, the clock reads 8:15 (minute hand on the 3). When she returns, the minute hand is between the 6 and the 7 again. (00:02:20)

Other mistake: Serena tells Darrin that Samantha won't know him back in the 19th century New Orleans because she hadn't been born yet. In Aunt Clara's Victoria Victory, we know Samantha was alive in the 19th century because she and Endora were "in Tibet at the time."

Other mistake: Darrin doesn't recognise Serena posing as Samantha. We know from "That Was No Chick, That Was My Wife" that he can tell the difference. This happens in several episodes.
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.
