...this week, this second promo for BW's new night began airing. I wonder if EM filmed this less cheesy one as she seemed uncomfortable with the other?

Yes, Liz looks less irked in this promo than she did in the last one. I can only imagine what she must have been thinking, having to go up against the then current #1 show All in The Family.
I was age 9 at the time and I don't remember them announcing the switch at all. From what I remember, they made the switch rather quietly, as I didn't even realize ABC changed the time slot until later in the season.
I remember thinking the show was canceled until one Saturday evening I saw a wall full of television sets at a local Sears and Roebuck's with a first run BW episode running on all of them. The episode was number 248 "Tabitha’s First Day at School". This will always be one of my favorite episodes and one of my best BW memories.

I still hate how she has to just stand there with all that copy running below her, er, flag. Would've been cuter if she could've looked down at it a la Brady Bunch and reacted or something... "Witches are good! Witches are dear!"
