But if you hearken back to the pilot episode, Darren didn't know Samantha was a witch when he married her; she didn't tell him until their wedding night. Of course, it didn't matter to him--or, he said it didn't matter, but considering how he tried to make her not use her power, it clearly mattered very much.
I would have considered that sort of revelation after the wedding as grounds for divorce. 8)

I think that's the point. Darrin was drawn to Sam because of her uniqueness. If he had known she was a witch, he would have rejected here but because he didn't know, he let his heart lead him on.

That's an interesting thought. :)

Not sure if this is what you mean, but there was an episode where Darrin found Samantha using witchcraft and made a comment about "may as well tell everyone." and Samantha used her powers to give him a dream as to how it would be if she told the world she was a witch.
It was called "I Confess"

I saw that episode not too long ago, sometime this summer.
