JPod, I recently saw Bewitched for the first time in decades and you’re being unfair. It’s easy to see what Samantha sees in the first Darrin (who’s charming in a goofy kind of way), just not in the second one. Pace Lileks, I do feel Sam was ahead of the curve here: in their own marriages, millions of American women wake up at the start of Season Six and don’t know where the dull stiff lying next to them came from.

On the other hand, you’re right about Larry Tate being totally cool. Do you remember that episode where Larry and Darrin fall out with their respective wives and go to the club for the night, and Sam twitches her nose and arranges for them to climb into bed with each other? Kinky.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled zeitgeist-surfing Sopranos post-mortem.
