What are group members favourite episodes dealing with the forgetful Aunt Clara played by wonderful actress Marion Lorne. She really was one of a kind and such a dear!
I personally love:
Accidential Twins
The Happy short circuit of Aunt Clara
Aunt Clara's Victoria Victory
The Corn's as high as a guernsey's eye
Samantha's secret saucer

When she blacks out the lights across the city.
When she conjures up Benjamin Franklin.

Forgive me for not knowing the title of the episodes, but my two favorite episodes are when the witches protested their halloween image, in season 1, and the one when Aunt Clara had to have a hearing after telling two kids she would take them flying. Also the one when she meets Darrin and his parents for the first time. HILARIOUS.

I love her in "The Short Happy Circuit of Aunt Clara." It is my favorite Bewitched episode of all time. It's the one where she blacks out the entire Eastern Seaboard. And then her old friend, Ocky, is the only one that can keep the lights on in the Stephens' house by having his arms raised. Then the Stephens, the Tates, and a client come over and Clara has to hide Ocky in the closet. Then they open the closet door and you see these two shoes walking out the house. Classic episode and real funny, too.

I remember that episode. It was very funny. But I always thought the blackout was caused when Oliver Douglas plugged in the electricical for the first time over in Hooterville.

I love the one where she blackouts all the eastern seabord, when she brings back Queen Victoria-'We are not amused'.,and the one where her old boyfriend and her reunite and neither one has their powers as they used to, and she keeps walking into walls.That episode was hillarious.

Everything Aunt Clara did was a disaster! I think my favorite of her gaffes was turning the Tates' baby into twins. OOPS!

That would be a tricky one to talk your way out of.

Remember the black and white Dick York as Darrin episode with Aunt Clara and her old beau,she said to Endora,when she and her old beau wanted to be alone ,"Endora,Haven't You Got a House to Haunt?"Endora vanishes then.That was Aunt Clara at her best.

catlover79 · 10-23-2007, 11:59 PM

It was also great when Aunt Clara got Endora's powers and made Endora's life miserable for awhile.

Marion Lorne was a terrific actress, and from everything I've read, was just as sweet, kind and friendly as her character. I'm sorry she didn't live to accept her Emmy.

bingbangbaby · 10-24-2007, 12:32 AM

I just loved Aunt Clara! I wanted Aunt Clara to be my aunt. What a sweetheart! I'm sorry I don't know episode names but I just love when she showed Darrin all her doorknobs, and how the doorknobs were missing when she left their house. When she was showing him her doorknobs that was such a charming yet sad moment at the same time. I also love that classic moment when she collides down the chimney when she comes to visit and Samantha helps her up, brushes her off with an "oh my stars!" fixes her hat and then giggles and kisses her. Love that moment.

I just don't think there was a sweeter and more charming character on any sitcom ever.

catlover79 · 10-24-2007, 12:41 AM

The world would be a happier place if there were more Aunt Claras around.

Probably The Short Happy Circuit - LOL

That's probably her most well-known goof.
