All this talk about the I Dream of Jeannie bottle made me think about some of my favorite childhood sitcoms. Does anyone here remember the episode of Bewtiched with Willie Mays in it? If I remember right, he was actually pretty good in it, albeit a short scene.

    I'm sure I've seen all episodes of that show and don't remember that one. I do remember Joe Namath on The Brady Bunch.

    Yea...I remember that one too. He was also on the A-Team.

    Willie was on Season 3 of Bewitched. "Twitch or Treat" episode.

    It's not on You Tube so it must not exist.

    I remember the Dodgers were on the Beverly Hillbillies and Mr. Ed. And Leo Durocher was on the Munsters one time.

    Oh it exist. Sony blocked the episode on copyright grounds (whatever that means). I found the episode set to Frank Sinatra's "withcraft". You can see him, but can't make out what he is saying....

    Kareen Abdul Jabbar was on Different Strokes one time. I am partial to the older athletes though. That is why I like the Willie Mays episode.

    The episode with Durocher in the Munsters is so funny. Love watching it.

    My favorite athlete in a TV show appearance is the Alan Trammell / Lou Whitaker scene in the Magnum PI episode "Sense of Debt." It's very findable on Youtube.

    Magnum is supposed to be a die-hard Tiger fan, but he doesn't recognize them. I do like the idea of Lou and Tram hanging out in local bars handing out free tickets though.



    Having said all of that, the entire softball episode (Homer at the Bat) of The Simpson is pretty classic. The synopsis is that the owner of the nuclear power plant (Mr. Burns) hires a bunch of big leaguers to work at his plant so he'll have a team of lineup for his softball team. The following players lent their voices to the episode:

    Roger Clemens
    Wade Boggs
    Don Mattingly
    Jose Canseco
    Ken Griffey Jr.
    Steve Sax
    Darryl Strawberry
    Mike Scioscia
    Ozzie Smith

    In the DVD commentary the makers of the show said all of the players were great to work with "except the one whose name rhymes with 'manseco'."

    I found it online . You will get pop ups telling you to download Flash Player. DO NOT DOWNLOAD. Just close all pop ups and you can watch the show.
