synopsis
When babysitter Endora is called away to the Taj Mahal on emergency business, little Tabitha amuses herself by bringing her toys to life. Convinced that the Stephenses are holding a costume party, a tipsy Larry Tate tries to strike up a friendship with the "humanized" toy soldier (Jim Brooks), whom he thinks has joined a new agency formed by Darrin. Written by Ed Jurist, "Toys in Babeland" was scripted during Bewitched's third season and originally scheduled to air on April 13, 1967. Because of an AFTRA strike, the episode was not ready for broadcast until season four, and not shown until September 14, 1967.
