Mariconsoy; Even as a kid, I was struck by how they pushed the liquor on that show. Larry Tate couldn't walk through the door of the Stevens's house without Sam pouring martinis down his throat. Makes me wonder who the original advertisers were...

Dearest Angry YM, It wasn't just Sam and Darwood Stevens that liked booze. Endora, Maurice [Sam's Dad] Larry and Louise Tate...All with Martini glasses firmly in hand. The only one who didn't drink was Mrs Kravitz and she really needed to...

Technically speaking, Pandora Spocks (aka Serena) was Samantha Stevens's evil identical cousin, not evil identical twin. Yes, it's a genetic miracle, but it was also the 60's. Personally, I never thought of Serena as evil, per se. On the contrary, her bohemian lifestyle served as a stark contrast to the bland, stifling suburban conformity embraced by the highly sexist and deeply alcoholic Stevens clan. Her attempts at subverting this paradigm by symbolically castrating Darin through wacky plots and harebrained schemes should be celebrated as the revolts against the oppressive patriarchal social structure that dominated American culture in the post-war era. Serena was a revolutionary, a catalyst for change, and had great fashion sense. I think Jeanie's evil identical cousin, Jeanie, on I Dream of Jeanie, was far more wicked than Serena. Also, Patty Duke's identical cousin, Cathy, was seriously more evil than either one of them. Cathy was like Satan in a pinafore.
