Bewitched

Perhaps you could try to Google some Wiccan events in your area to meet some "wtiches". The magic you see on the show is exaggerated like Sabrina B. stated, but there are magic practitioners all over the place. You've probably met a few already without even knowing it.   See 3 other replies

Actually, I've always had the assumption that this show was a women's lib statement. It first aired in 1964 when women were supposed to be submissive to their husbands, yet society demanded that they still act like perfect "Stepford" wives and mothers. Bewitched was a breakthrough for some women, allowing them to realize that if they had special "powers" like your daughters' athletic abilities, they shouldn't deny them all the time. However, being the man's world of 1964, the writers had to be clever about it so they wouldn't offend their male veiwing audience. It was an attempt at being part of a first step toward the kind of women's rights we have today, and it's a great thing to be able to view nowadays to see just how far we've come. Keep in mind that at any point, Samantha could have simply mopped the floor with Daren. She CHOSE to let him think he had the power in the relationship... Very progressive by 1964's standards when women commonly worried how they could be powerful while still being tradtitionally supportive of their husbands and households.   See 13 other replies
