Agree with you. I know she hated that roll and you CAN'T tell ever that she did not like playing samantha's mother. She liked working with DARWOOD . L0L. OVER DICK SARGENT. THE WHOLE CAST WAS REAL GOOD AND CONVINCING. MY FAVORITE 2 - WAS GLADIS KRAVITZ. AND OF COURSE AUNT CLAIRE.

Wait! What?? U met her? What was she like? Do tell..... details

Also met beautiful Liz twice. First in 1978 in Chicago at a cast viewing of her mini series " The Awakening Land" and then in the early 90's about 1991 after her appearing in the play "Love Letters"! She was sweet and beautiful both times. Will never forget her!

@@sheldoncooper1134 I never knew about her mini series. Wow! Thanks for the share

Lucky. I want to meet jet in heaven. I wish i could have in the 99s b4 she passed away. Not fair.

So lucky to have met her :)

@Sandra Jones Agree - Barbara was perfect as Jeanie, but Elizabeth was a far better actress, making Bewitched (a ridiculous premise) seem viable. I always wondered why Elizabeth Montgomery didn't make movies after the series (like Mary Tyler Moore, etc.)

Yes!

So true , and I'm glad I was born in the 50s and got to watch bewitched,

Elizabeth Montgomery was a beautiful lady inside and out.

@@jtrain5615 oh but she did you tube has them all

Amen

@Mary C Let me correct you. Dick Sargent was not openly gay. Back then, someone who came out could have lost their jobs (not likely in the entertainment industry) or, in some parts of the country, have been arrested. Sargent's biography for BEWITCHED listed a phony wife, which meant Sargent couldn't even be open about his private life, if he'd wanted to be. Liz knew Sargent was gay and never pushed it. She respected his privacy. Dick Sargent and his partner had to live in the "closet" because of the Puritanical attitudes in some parts of the country at the time, and still exists to this day. If you'd like to see an interview with Dick Sargent, there is one where he explains the situation out here on KZfaq, look for the documentaries on BEWITCHED done in 1999 by A&E and E:, if you haven't seen them. There are interviews with Liz Montgomery, including a two-part audio interview where she discussed BEWITCHED in part two, heaping praise on the cast and crew. Finally, from what I've heard, Paul Lynde was openly gay and didn't care. Sargent was "forced" to come out because The Star magazine was about to print an article outting him. At an event Sargent finally came out. He received a multi-minute standing ovation. That's when he was asked to see if Liz would co-marshal the 1992 gay rights parade with him. According to her son Billy, she felt that it was something she wanted to do, and did. Liz was way ahead of her time in her support of AIDS research and gay rights and the rights of all people. I remind you of SISTERS AT HEART and the African-American students who came up with the groundbreaking idea. Oh, it was Liz Montgomery's favorite episode. For me this episode and A IS FOR AARDVARK define what BEWITCHED was all about. I haven't read where Liz didn't like Dick York. Did she say something in one of Herbie Pilato's books? He was actually a very nice guy, as was Sargent. York had nothing but kind words for the BEWITCHED cast and crew. He actually called Liz but she was out. He didn't say if she got back with him or not. Search for York's interview here on KZfaq.

oh yes. Everyone was great in original cast. Ratings started dropping when poor Dick York had to leave due to health. Sargent was charisma challenged

Kerry Keene You are right about everything from what I have read. For some people TRY to push this Liz did not like Dick York junk. 1 short term hired production team member said that. Dick was PIVOTAL to the show, and Liz darn well knew their chemistry was magic. Ratings dropped when he left and that is a fact.

@@MTknitter22 Sorry, hon. Third season producer William Froug stated clearly in his autobiography that Liz "couldn't stand" York and was witness to a private meeting with executive producer Harry Ackerman in which he stated, "We have to get rid of HIM!" And that was at the end of season two! It was Asher who advised Liz that York was too valuable to the series. York was very talented, and a good man, but Liz had genuine reason to dislike his presence. It's a very long story, and a sad one.

Yes I have gotten so depressed over the many many deaths of actors and actresses I grew up with from 50s-70s TV. I still cannot believe Mary Tyler Moore is gone, Rhoda, Batman and Batgirl, Elly May Clampett, Willona from Good Times, Tracey and Keith from the Partridge Family, Millie Helper and Sally Rogers from the Dick Van Dyke Show, etc., etc.

I think the actresses who played the daughter, Tabitha, and the actor who played the son, Adam, are still living. I think Diane and Erin Murphy(Tabitha)are in their mid to late 50s, and David Lawrence(Adam)is in his late 40s or early 50s.

I know what you mean. I'm 63 years old now and all of the legendary actors and actresses are gone. And yes it makes me feel old too. I remember my parents commenting about their favorite stars of their day being gone. It's s generational thing I guess.

Well we are getting to the age where none of us are young if we remember this show for sure . Maybe with gene therapy we can stay young longer who knows 😂.

rtususian : Ruben from the Partridge Family is gone, too

Yes and I call myself one of them! These are AWESOME!

Yes, Barry! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Wow, this is so magnificent to watch and I love the music too. I am a forever diehard fan, just love this show and Elizabeth Montgomery so much.

So beautiful, classy and elegant.

100% agree the 1970s Beauty.

@@markmace2113 imo 1970s had better fashion than today.

I was just thinking the same thing .

A beautiful voice too. Speaking

Oh, Yeah!!

Will always love Elizabeth Montgomery and this show. Elizabeth was always a breath of fresh air. So charming, intelligent and beautiful! And proved to be one hell.of a great actress with her TV movies after "Bewitched"!!!

Dick York and Agnes Moorehead we're great friends on the show.

I love the Christmas episodes because of the tree reminds me of when I was young the sixties and seventies trees were the best before got way too commercial in my eyes. Bewitched had the exact trees that I would love to have every year for my home the same exact decorations. I love you Santa Claus.

Loved this show used to watch it as a kid in the eighties. Always wanted a wife like Samantha lol

Yet she totally ignored Dick York after he left the series and during his battle with a debilitating spine injury, prescription drug effects and emphysema. He states in one of his interviews that he loves “Liz” and when asked, he says, “No”, she hasn’t been in touch”. I find that astounding and sours my view of the ‘darling” Montgomery.

@@richparsons4205 I had heard that too, that Dick York never saw her again after his last day of shooting.

@@richparsons4205 I agree!

@@richparsons4205 well rich that answered my question I was wondering , folks pick and choose. Liz made millions while he wound up broke. I would've helped him She couldn't understand that he had her back. Just cause he really liked her wow, aww I'll text this Rich, hut at vf the endhe had no reason to sleep with bv the director Michaels in '71.

It's a credit 2 all involved that this show seemed very real 2 all of us .We loved it and looked forward 2 it each week, now enjoying reruns.

If you love what you do specially if good at it for loved by all the majority except haters ofc who are of no consequence & recieved well by the majority & passionate as well as take it as fun playing then you moat certainly will feel great & have fun.

Yes , thumbs way up !

And Darwin

You are beyond cute!

It will a turn for the worst while he was on the show

@@windstorm1000 yep

I feel sad watching these images. So many died young of cancers and other illnesses. A wonderful show & magnificent actors.

Yes, it certainly is!

I enjoy spotting the Brady Bunch kids in TV shows PRIOR to The Brady Bunch. Maureen was on Bewitched, Greg Brady was on a Mission Impossible, Jan Brady played a girl in a wheelchair in an episode of Family Affair in a Xmas episode from 1968. Incidentally, Danny Bonaduce of the Partridge Family was also on Bewitched.

S R she was also in an episode of ‘I Dream of Jeannie.’

Chapman yes. Jeannie was a nurse & walked into her hospital room and blinked a room full of dolls for her if I recall.

Chapman same here.

You are very welcome

@@bpintar How about doing a video of my favorite t.v. show, Get Smart?

Too bad Dick York's back problems forced him to quit the series. Dick Sargent just didn't cut it as Darrin no. 2.

Me too, I'm an Xennial!

Thank you! and You're welcome

Oh so true

Diana that would've been nice.

Elizabeth Montgomery and David White appeared together in a 1960 episode of the Untouchables, "The Rusty Heller Story". kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZuCafc6CutrNlIk.html Here is a scene between the two of them.

I, too, picked up the DVD set as a holiday gift for my son. Now I can show him why this was one of my earliest fave shows.

you are very welcome and as always thank you for your comments. And you are right about Erin She referred to Lizzie as her second mother

More Bewitched Continued!!!

Mine to it was the best show

I admire Elizabeth. She was also a great humanitarian as well.✨💫🌠"Oh, my stars!"

It was a gift from her husband, Bill Asher.

She was stunning , one of the most beautiful natural faces to grace the screen . And Erin Murphy is a close runner up now !
