I'm not in disagreement over the fact that "Bewitched" is the inferior show, but being offended by the premise on religious grounds isn't the reason why I dislike it. The fact that there wasn't enough truly good comedy in it is the reason why I can only watch a random sampling of episodes when things did click together.
Personally, I've always felt that the best of the "supernatural gimmick" sitcoms of the 60s was the lesser-heralded "My Favorite Martian" simply because Ray Walston and Bill Bixby had the chemistry and byplay of an old-fashioned vaudeville team that always knew how to elevate the material into something more funny.
