The Mary Tyler Moore Show

We travel to Minneapolis when times were simpler, at least for a Mary Tyler Moore, an unmarried white woman trying to make her way in the male-dominated world of journalism in the 1970s. Mary shows her biggest fault in one of my favorite episodes. Is it still funny to my kids and me over two generations after it originally aired?

Bewitched

We take a trip to the groovy 1960s to visit with Darrin and Samantha Stevens. Samantha's is a witch who has agreed not to use her powers, but that doesn't stop Samantha's mother from creating two Darrins, one for work and one for fun. We know this won't work as planned, but does hilarity still ensue?
