Bewitched: Nobody But a Frog Knows How to Live
From Season 3, Episode 32
Original Airdate: April 27, 1967
A frog turned into a man wants Samantha to change him back.
John Fiedler plays Fergus, who wants to be changed back into a frog. If you needed a high-pitched, squeeky voiced, pipsqueek of a character, then John Fiedler was your man. His long career included roles as the nervous Juror #2 in “12 Angry Men,” in Star Trek’s “Wolf in the Fold” and in the role of Mr. Peterson on one of my favorite shows, The Bob Newhart Show. He was also the voice on numerous Walt Disney animated films including the “Winnie the Pooh” films as the voice of Piglet.
