[post_page_title]Samantha is seen as pushing boundaries for women on television[/post_page_title]
In the early days of television, women often had very specific roles to play. They were housewives, typically unhappy in their marriages, and were criticized as being unattractive, stupid, and overall drudges, according to feminist Betty Friedan.
However, Samantha often turned these stereotypes on their heads, taking an active role in her life, helping businesses through her magical powers. The show took a hard look at gender roles, and while it is a product of its era, it was groundbreaking at the time.
