I think I like the second Baxter family a bit better - Page 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

As I said above: the "pilot of Hazel which used the exact same storyline BUT with Edward Andrews playing George and Hal something (Otis from Andy Griffith) playing the mailman. Hazel's hair was also a lot thinner there, she later wore a wig for the real Hazel series. That pilot was always shown on WOR instead of the real Don Defore version."

Barbara Baxter seemed like a typical housewife who lived for her husband.

Dorothy Baxter had her own thing going with her interior decorating business, she seemed more independent and sure of herself too.

Yes, it was the one with Edward Andrews as George. I still have the old VHS tape but it is in storage. I converted it to an mpg file that is on an old external hard drive somewhere. I no longer have a YouTube channel though.
