Nah. The worst advertising slogans were those last minute saves Darrin or Samantha used to come up with that rescued the client-of-the week account on later seasons of Bewitched. Of course, they had lazy writers helping them out to make sure that whatever spell Endora put on Darrin this week dovetailed perfectly into the client's product or problem. If Endora decided to prove that Darrin was stubborn and pig-headed by giving him the head of a pig, it was inevitable that the client would turn out to be the owner of a chain of pork sparerib restaurants that needed a logo.
