As many of you probably know, "Samantha Fights City Hall" is the only episode of Bewitched where Diane Murphy is credited in the closing credits for her role as 'Tabitha.' I've known that for many years (since the 80's), but I don't ever recall seeing that scene in the ep where 'Tabitha' goes up the slide backwards because the little boy dared her; I only remember seeing her on the swing.

Now that I've seen a close-up of Diane Murphy for the first time, I can see the slight difference in the way she spoke compared to Erin Murphy, plus she twitched her nose a little bit differently.

Anyway, I don't know why I've never seen that full close-up of her before....I've never seen first-run eps of Bewitched since I was born after the 60's, and I'm wondering if that particular scene has been edited in some of the syndicated versions of Bewitched over the years. Could it be that it was edited when it appeared on the Hallmark channel, or did I just miss something?
