Witches Episode aired Jun 1, 1999
The people on this program are familiar mainstream writers that have contributed heavily to the emergence or re-emergence of Wicca. The significance of the program is not the contents but to get a first-hand view of the writers (Z. Budapest, Laurie Cabot and Janet Farrar.)
Naturally with most biographical films, there is a spin placed on the subject matter to portray what they think will sell. Notice the green-faced witch in the Wizard of Oz is shown; they completely overlook Glenda to the good witch.
With all the hype and not many circumstances, you may get the feeling that this is not a "how-to" program. However, the essence is not rigid rituals but the philosophy and religion behind Wicca.
This is not a "be all. End all" program but a portrait.
