Tucker's Witch(TV show/series, 1982-1983)

Tucker's Witch is a comedy-detective series that aired on CBS television from October 6 to November 10, 1982, and again sporadically from March 31 to June 9, 1983. It stars Tim Matheson and Catherine Hicks as a charming married couple, Rick and Amanda Tucker, who own and operate a private detective agency in Laurel Canyon in Los Angeles. Amanda is a witch who possesses psychic and other powers that help the agency solve cases. However, as Amanda is often not in full control of her powers, her witchly exploits also often lead the couple into trouble. Also in the cast were Bill Morey as the Tuckers' grumpy (but ultimately friendly) police contact Lt. Fisk; Alfre Woodard as the Tuckers' efficient administrative assistant Marcia; and Barbara Barrie as Amanda's cheerful widowed mother Ellen, a herbalist and healer who often visited the Tuckers. Amanda inherited her powers not from Ellen, but from Ellen's deceased mother—witchly powers were said to skip a generation. Amanda's beige-and-black blue-eyed cat (and familiar), seen prominently in the credits and most episodes, was named Dickens. ()
