Free Spirit (1989–1990)
5/10
bland
3 December 2020
Thomas Harper (Franc Luz) is a stay-at-home lawyer single dad to Gene (Edan Gross), Jessie (Alyson Hannigan), and Robb (Paul Scherrer). He moved his family out of NYC. Gene makes a wish and immortal witch Winnie Goodwinn (Corinne Bohrer) magically appears. She becomes the family's housekeeper.

It's not actually horrible. It's just actually bland. It's a standard network family sitcom with a witch. I mostly wanted to see a young Alyson Hannigan before her better known roles. I do remember Corinne Bohrer in a couple of things. Sadly, the dad is a relative dud. The chemistry between Winnie and the dad is stuck in neutral. It's hard when there are no big laughs. Maybe it needs a wacky neighbor kid or a cantankerous grandfather or a comedic uncle. It needs more than this. After a season of low ratings and bad reviews, the show was canceled.
