It seems that this short-lived 1977 spinoff was not so much trying to recapture the magic of Bewitched as it was The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Like Mary, Lisa Hartman's Tabitha was an independent single woman working for a low-rent local television station. Where Mary had a letter "M" hanging on her wall, Tabitha had a "T." Tabitha, however, tried to turn our world on, not with a smile, but with a twitch of her nose. And without the benefit of brilliant writers or an able ensemble, Hartman was just not up to taking a nothing premise and suddenly making it all seem worthwhile. Tabitha, now a witchy woman, works as an assistant at KXLA with her mortified mortal brother, Adam, to whom she promises to "cut down on the nose action" (in the more-interesting unaired pilot included on this two-disc set, Adam is a warlock trying to lure his sister to the dark side). Tabitha is an exercise in diminished returns. Mel Stuart, as the beleaguered station manager, is no Ed Asner; a pre-Spenser Robert Urich, as the obnoxious, egomaniacal talk show host, is no Ted Knight; and Karen Morrow, as Tabitha's meddlesome, troublemaking aunt Minerva, is no Agnes Moorehead.
Not that Tabitha is without its TV Land charms. Reprising their roles from the original series are Sandra Gould and a bearded George Tobias as Gladys and Abner Kravitz in "The Arrival of Nancy," and Bernard Fox as Dr. Bombay in "Tabitha's Party." These episodes also feature welcome appearances by, respectively, Fred Willard as a gold-chain-wearing swinger and Werner "Col. Klink" Klemperer. For undiscriminating couch potatoes, Tabitha, may cast an irresistible guilty pleasure spell. However, fans of the original series will probably feel less bewitched than bothered and bewildered. --Donald Liebenson

I enjoyed this for what it really is. This a 70's type version of Tabitha, Samantha's daughter in Bewitched. Tabitha is totally hot.
The story lines are kind of schlocky, and a more updated version
of the original. Tabitha's aunt is interfering, but much nicer
than the original Endora (Samantha's mother). Adam, Tabitha's brother is dorkish, but a predicatably over protective mortal without any warlock powers. It's a fun DVD as long as viewers don't take it too seriously.

Lisa had her nose done after this series; she is more beautiful now at age 50 than she ever was then. I had her on my flight (I am a Flight Attendant), and she looks twenty years younger than she is.

I remember watching the show when it was on in the 70's and I do remember how disappointed I was when it was quickly cancelled. I thought it was a cute funny show, but it was just never given a chance, much like the networks do to shows these days (i.e. Book of Daniel, DAYBREAK) I think if the network had given it a chance and had more Bewitched stars "visit", the show may have gotten better. I was so happy when Lisa Hartman moved to the cul-de-sac community of KNOTS LANDING in 1983 though--I love Lisa ... Read More

Lisa Hartman has what it takes to to do whatever she darn pleases! I love Lisa and have all her albums (too few in my opinion!) She is an excellent singer and it's a darn shame that she doesn't record anymore.
As for her acting, she's a darn good actress too! But, you have to take TABITHA for what it's worth - pure entertainment. When I've had a rotten day, I like to put my feet up, with my cat on my lap, and watch this.
Try it, it must be magic, it works!

Concededly there was a lot of room for improvement, unfortunately ABC never gave the show a chance to develop further. For a 1970s show, it was par for the course. Lisa Hartman definitely had what it took to carry her own show. And she and the actor who played Adam resembled their TV parents enough to make it seem plausible. "Tabitha" is charming in its own way. And yes, the guest appearances of original characters like the Kravitzes and Dr. Bombay were welcome delights (only wish Ms. Montgomery and Uncle ... Read More
