Bewitched - The Salem Saga!
In mid-1970, the Bewitched set suffered a major fire. In June, the cast and crew traveled to Salem, Magnolia, and Gloucester, Massachusetts to film an eight-part story arc in which Samantha, Darrin, and Endora travel to Salem for the centennial Witches Convocation. These location shoots marked the only times the show would film away from its Hollywood studio sets and backlot.
The episodes are really fun to watch and show some great shots around the cities.
