Fun Stuff

Trivia:
This popular television series was created from elements of two motion pictures that had been originally produced by Columbia Pictures. The basic concept of 'Bewitched (1964)' was derived from the plot of I Married a Witch (1942), starring Veronica Lake, Fredric March and Cecil Kellaway in the role of the witch's mischievous father. (The mischievous parent in 'Bewitched (1964)' would, of course, become Samantha's mother, Endora, portrayed by Agnes Moorehead, while Samantha's father, Maurice, would make only occasional appearances.) Mr. Kellaway would, in fact, appear as Santa Claus in one episode of "Bewitched" long after he made "I Married a Witch." A sub-plot in "I Married a Witch" became the sub-plot of the 'Bewitched (1964)' pilot episode entitled "I, Darrin, Take This Witch Samantha," in which Darrin's former fiancee appears, played by Nancy Kovack. In "I Married a Witch," the fiancee was portrayed by Susan Hayward. Elements from another Columbia Pictures classic, Bell Book and Candle (1958) were used for further character development as well as episodic plot development in 'Bewitched (1964)'. For example, Elsa Lanchester's bumbling Aunt Queenie in "Bell, Book and Candle" became the bumbling Aunt Clara in 'Bewitched (1964)'. Likewise, Jack Lemmon's "Bell, Book and Candle" character, Nicky Holroyd, was a basis for the 'Bewitched (1964)' Uncle Arthur. more

What a great show!, 2 February 2002
Author: dool86jm from Florida, USA

When I was a little girl I loved watching Bewitched. It was such a great show and the thought of someone having them powers was so exciting. Like many other people I also liked Jeannie, but not as much as Bewitched. Because Samantha was married and had children, and she seemed so in love with Darrin, she really tried so hard not to use her powers out of love for Darrin, but of course she couldnt help it once in a while, when all of her relatives would always do something to get her or Darrin into trouble specilly Endora, I really liked her. She was such an evil mother in law, but arent they all? ha ha ha. And what about Aunt Clara, the poor thing never got a trick right. And Esmeralda, Dr. Bombay, Cousin Serena, Aunt Hagatha, Maurice, Uncle Arthur was such a clown, and all the others who just pop in and out with out an invitation, is a surprise Darrin didnt run away LOL

All of the actors who played on this show did a great job, for a show that was from the 60s it sure had some great scenes, all that magic it was just so much fun to watch, I think we all wished Samantha was our mom, the things she could have done for us. I am an adult with children who learned to like the show also, and is too bad they took the re runs off the air. Shows like that can go on for ever and you never get tired of watching them. Elizabeth, Dick, Agnes and all the others you will be missed. :(
