That was my favorite Dick Sargent moment when all the cliche's would come to pass that he spoke. You play ball with me and I'll play ball with you and zap they were in baseball uniforms, lol.

Dick Sargent was funny thorough out all of his episodes on Bewitched.
His understated dry sardonic humour was very effective with his use
of one liners an improvement he brought to the show.

In What makes Darrin Run # 191 from season 6 was hysterical when he became
in effect mad with power and wanted to rule the world & his boss could take a long walk
on a short wharf, his stride to a take over was rife with comedic possibilities well executed,
this was also ably demonstrated in the two parter Daddy comes for a visit.

In Just a kid again # 193 Dick Sargent had a very effective interplay comedicly with the brilliant actor
who played Irving Bates as a child, their actions towards each other as Adult to child but an adult in reality was
funny in a wide ranging way that that had a constant double edged sword to it.

Myself i thought his best pure flat out funny performance was in # 199 Turn on the old charm, his
twisting the knife in Endora's psyche and one upping her with the help of the amulet was hysterical, but
even more so when Sam & Darrin were both magically induced by Endora to fight & verbally get their
long knives out for each other, it reminded me Richard Burton & Liz Taylor in Who's afraid of Virginia Wolf.

He was great in #210 Samantha's old man constantly sticking it to both Larry Tate, the Client and all mortals her encountered.

His superb talent of physical comedy was another superb addition to the show, best exhibited in #187 The Phrase is familiar, providing some of the most drop dead funny lines in the whole series using his body to express then rather then words for the most part, the bowing out, ear to the floor etc was superbly executed, reminded me a lot of Kramer in Seinfeld.

He was very funny in #227 Laugh Clown Laugh using physical comedy switching back and forth in his reactions
to bad news as well as giving it.

In #235 The Ghost who made a spectre of himself, was Hysterical as the ghost possessing Darrin's body, he was one of the best guest stars ever on Bewitched in that episode as Darrin and the ghost combined.

I enjoyed Dick Sargents performance a great deal in Season eights # 246 Samantha on thin ice as well, such as the scene in the kitchen where Darrin quiz's Samantha on how she is going to learn how to skate the mortal way along with Tabitha, very funny back and forth comedic tennis match.
