WandaVision is meant to be an ironic take on sixites sitcoms featuring the supernatural, primarily Betwitched. Betwitched features Samantha, a witch married to a mortal. But the original Betwitched is more contemporary (and ironic) than this smirky remake. Samantha had an outspoken mother, Endora, who's questioning of Sam's lifestyle takes on a feminist note. And there was Gladys, the suspicious neighbor, wonderfully played by character actress Sandra Gould. Darren, Samantha's husband is a decent, kind man who loves his wife unconditionally, even though he doesn't understand her. Darren's boss Larry harasses his female employees, and the series questions his behavior it even as it plays it for laughs. Bewitched's gentle irony and it's questioning of contemporary values holds beautifully. The best thing about WandaVision is the music. It does genuinely capture the mood of the times and gives the series a sparkle it doesn't quite deserve.
