The Girl with Something Extra is an American fantasy-based sitcom that aired on NBC for one season during 1973-1974. The series was created by Bernard Slade and produced by Screen Gems Television. The Girl with Something Extra was a cross between Bewitched and Nanny and the Professor in that it derived its comedy from the relationship between a normal man and his wife who happens to have a paranormal power. In this case, the series focused on newly married couple John Burton and Sally Burton , and their misadventures after John discovers that Sally has ESP. This ability allowed her to read... other people's minds. Co-starring in the series were Teri Garr, Henry Jones and Zohra Lampert. Despite airing right after Sanford and Son on Friday nights, the show was canceled at the end of the season due to low ratings. A total of 22 half-hour episodes of the series were produced. In the episode The Cost of Giving, Field was reunited with Don Porter, her costar from the series Gidget . In the following episode A Zircon in the Rough, she was reunited with Madeline Sherwood, her costar from the series The Flying Nun.
