Nose Twitch: A Bewitched Fancast

Holy guest stars, Batman! The caped crusader and movie star (nearly) fall in love in Morning Glory Circle. Samantha invokes the name of Beelzebub, and Austin manages to make it through the whole episode without once referencing the Muppets. (How many other IPs can I cram into this description to get that delicious SEO?) (As many as it takes, Gilligan...) Follow us on Twitter: @NoseTwitch

Is this still a Bewitched podcast? Somehow we get to talking about Prometheus, The Brady Bunch, and Mad About You, so maybe not. Austin is joined by Nat to discuss body shaming, gender identity, and the relative importance people with uteri should or should not place on being able to give birth -- because this show, this widely beloved television show, will not let up. Austin manages to get through the whole episode without saying "Abnys Kravitz." Be proud of the small accomplishments. Follow us on Twitter: @NoseTwitch

If you thought Bewitched was just a formulaic sitcom from the 1960s, let me point out to you that this episode includes a white Bengal tiger rug, sooooooooo. Austin goes over how to interact with restaurant staff and reminds you all not to be like Larry Tate. Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch EDIT: It's not a white Bengal tiger; it's a polar bear. I feel like such a fool.

Samantha's family grows ever so larger. It's time for Darrin (Donald? Dennis? Derrick?) to meet Maurice! Robby joins Austin to talk about this episode of Bewitched, which somehow turns into a meditation on what it means to have sexual chemistry.  Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch

Endora's back!!! She's back and the world is richer for it. For the most part, Austin just wants to sit back and enjoy Agnes Moorehead's French, but there's other things to talk about, like Irene Vernon's Louise and Samantha's appearance in airplane windows. (Bewitched, guys. Can you even begin to believe it?) Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch

It would have been extremely fascinating for this "girl reporter" to have started interviewing Darrin only to get too curious about Samantha, but that's not what happens in this episode. Mostly what happens is Darrin drinks root beer & scotch, and Samantha makes an apple/banana cream pie. Really, the whole episode is about pairings that don't belong together. Austin and his guest Jillian discuss Bewitched's eighth episode, "The Girl Reporter," in which there are no reporters and barely any mention of journalism. Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch

Everyone's favorite aunt finally makes it on the show! Well, on the show that we're reviewing - not on the show that is this podcast. That would be incredible, but communing with the deceased is not really within our scope. Austin and Peter return to talk about civil disobedience and the gossip of older relatives. Austin finally remembers to remind you in the show to follow us on Twitter. Speaking of which: Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch

The most impressive part of this episode is the deftness with which Samantha runs circles around everyone else. Austin is joined by his husband Peter to talk about overprotective parents, magical gestures, and just how very, very into each other the adult characters are.  Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch

We're definitely talking about Caldwell's Soup in this episode and that should absolutely not be misconstrued to mean any other soup brand you might think it means. We're making the youth soup-conscious! Austin and Sam talk about horse collars (not yokes) and the way Samantha and Endora pose to fly away.  Follow us on Twitter: @nosetwitch

Apparently, "It Shouldn't Happen to a Dog" is also the name of a movie from 1946, but even with that knowledge, Austin and his guest Samantha cannot figure out why it's the title of this episode. Buckle in, everyone; this one's a pretty bad ride.  Content Warning: Discussion of sexual harassment and assault Follow Nose Twitch on Twitter: @nosetwitch

Okay, but what actually is his name? Austin returns with his guest, writer Robby Bailey (@robBEbailey), to talk about the first Darrin/Endora interaction! Robby lives for "Harpie's Bizarre." Austin feels very strongly about baseball. Neither of them can remember the names of Samantha's neighbors, despite the fact that Austin had it in his notes the whole time (They're Jane and Shirley).  Follow Nose Twitch on Twitter: @nosetwitch

We're still talking about Bewitched on this Bewitched fan cast. You'd be amazed. On this episode, Austin and writer Robby Bailey (@robBEbailey) discuss the second episode, "Be It Ever So Mortgaged." We talk about Agnes Moorehead's opinion of Endora, Gaslight of the Century Gladys Kravitz, and the year that "The Brady Bunch" came out. Follow Nose Twitch on Twitter: @nosetwitch

Once upon a time, there was a typical American boy who happened to start a podcast about a typical American sitcom. Welcome to Nose Twitch! We're reviewing the first episode of Bewitched.
