I Dream of Jeannie
Darrin is more mysogynistic than Tony Nelson. At least Tony let Jeannie use her powers to fix dinner, clean the house, fix the magical problem. Samantha always had to ask permission to use magic to fix a magical problem.

They should have had an in-show explanation for the switch in Darrins (and Dicks) -- like maybe Samantha's powers going awry during a witchy facelift...

I can immediate recall the "Jeannie" theme. Had to think long and hard about the "Bewitched" one so I'll vote for Jeannie.

If I had to pick one in this I'd pick Bewitched for two reasons.
1. It's pretty. 2. To see Stu twitch his nose beguilingly.
If the Quismaster doesn't mind, I'll be bold and start another:
Gilligan's Island ("Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale...")
vs.
The Patty Duke Show ("Meet Cathy who's lived most everywhere...")

Gilligan's Island. Fun theme that totally gives you what you need to know up front. Plus, my wife can sing Amazing Grace to it.

Of course Gilligan's Island is better known, but I'd have to go with the Patty Duke show - all about losing your mind in the face of a beguiling reality.

I vote for Gilligan's Island seeing I know all the words and have never relly seen the Patty Duke show.
