  • Darrin has always been happy with his looks and is quite content with his face, until Samantha and Endora decide to 'change'a few things while he is sleeping.

    "Bad"
    Samantha loves her mortal husband very much, and the feeling is entirely mutual. Endora, of course, loathes her son-in-law and barely tolerates him. The two women disagree about Darrin's appearance and go further than they intended when they change his entire appearance to make him look more pleasing to the eye.

    When Darrin sees his 'new self' in the mirror, he is at first angry and then depressed after Sam tells him that she and her mother were just having some fun. He is convinced that his lovely wife finds him physically unattractive and is, to say the least, very down in the dumps.

    Realising her mistake, Samantha knows she must rectify the situation as soon as possible before Darrin feels any worse than he already does. Her answer is to change herself into a gorgeous French woman who 'comes on' to Darrin as he is having a drink in a bar. Sam is incredibly surprised when Darrin sees through her disguise immediately but is touched that she would go to so much trouble to make him feel better.

    A very dull episode with precious little to laugh about and a script that doesn't have many highlights, still, have a look and see what you think.moreless

    • When Michelle is rebuffed in her attempts to have Darrin come to her place to model, she says, "Bonjour, Monsieur" as a goodbye. "Bonjour" means "hello." She should have said "bonsoir", which means "good evening." Alternatively, "au revoir" or "adieu" both translate as "goodbye." Edit
    • When Sam and Darrin are eating dinner, Darrin asks Sam to get him some more water. When Sam takes the water glass to fill it, Darrin takes a sip from what looks like a glass of water. Edit
