The way she nails “you’re getting older, dear” 😂😂😂
It is a classic retort! Endora to the hilt! 👏👏👏😂😂💫
Lol
Agree - When when Maurice says What have you done with him and she replies Wouldn't you like to know lol
Yes! Perfect!
I also loved her retort to Marice. They are still married, but their eternity is quite open-minded. Ha.
Endora expressions is just priceless.
Interesting that Endora actually protected Darrin here.
It was more that she was standing up to her husband and protecting her daughter, Darrin was mostly incidental to it
Maurice and Endora were separated or divorced, so maybe her ex-husband.
@@hebneh I don't think they were divorced, but they did lead separate lives, that might also be the custom of witches that have been married for centuries. They certainly had plenty of time to build up resentments toward each other
It’s a bit like siblings. Your older brother can torment the crap out of you, but if someone else tries to do it he’ll instantly come to your defence.
@@ArgonTheAware ...I think the word is: "estranged"(?)
The costume designer and makeup artist of this show was so talented
veronica Ave too bad when it first aired, it was in black and white. It’s interesting how they still did great makeup for only for the audience back then to not be able to see it.
Majority of the clothes are from their personal wardrobe. Except for Elizabeth and Dick. Most of Agnes wardrobe was her own
Another great episode!!!!! Maurice, and Endora are so good together!!!! They are a crack- up!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤❤❤❤❤!!!!!!!!!!
"Endora: If you don't bring him back I'll make your life miserable and you know I can do it!"
Maurice looks like he'll take it
Endora: "I'll move in with you!"
Maurice's eyes widen terrified.
Lol 😂
I love the stare down between Endora and Maurice. Their dialogue was used again slightly in the 8th season, when Endora changes Darrin into a statue in Paris. One of my favorite episodes!
I always viewed the stare down as Maurice trying to read Endora’s mind...😅
The statue (actually more of a bust) Darrin was changed into...Napoleon Bonaparte.
Yes, I think it was "Paris, Witches Style". The same "perhaps you frighten Samantha but you certainly don't frighten me" line from Endora. They recycled several episode plots during the show's run.
@@FamilyGuy770 Yea that's how I interpret it too. Especially with him saying "you're getting stronger, Endora."
FamilyGuy770 me too. That’s why he said that she got more powerful. She was blocking the telepathy spell lol
Not so sure this was Endora sticking up for Darren or if she was simply protecting Samantha because she is so happy with Darren.
Endora stated that "[she] didn't want to have a mortal on her conscience"- it was a matter of principle, and Endora wasn't doing it for Darren. What's more, I sensed that Endora was interested in thwarting Maurice(?)
@@daleburrell6273 , "...thwarting Maurice" - sounds more like it.
While Endora might enjoy antagonizing Darrin, she never tried to outright *murder* him like she knew Maurice would (and did).
truth be told, in the real world, Agnes and Moorehead and York were great friends off screen.
I do think Endora did love Darren the character, she just liked to test his will for Sam. I remember in the episode when Tabatha was born, they hugged and cried together.
@@daniels7907 did??
The first Darrin actor was the best!
I always liked the first Darrin the best also, the love between him and Sam was a lot more believable than the second Darrin.
@@scottchoate6987 I know that but so what
M L White was the better of the two, you need three to be best
@@littlemiss_76 I literally wrote the reason why I liked the first one better, how can you say it's only because he was the first when I explained the reason I like him better, I found him more believable. Don't make assumptions.
Totally, agree I could not accept Dick Sargeant, he was just too stiff. Dick York, was and is the only Darrin. However, may both men R.I.P in peace. Thanks for the magic & the memories.
Endora’s makeup was on point! Makeup artist was well ahead of her time and very talented. I wonder what someone with that talent could be like with today’s makeup.
Blue eyeshadow, very 60s… but it compliments her red hair
My dream makeup
@MamiTT237 and her marvelous and beautiful blue eyes!!!!! 💜⚘️
Endora, wow, women of that era, they had my respect, my admiration, and my fear all at the same time.
She reminds me so much of the evil witch in snow white.
Her voice, manurisms and the way she chants her spells...
@@shevahauser1780...interesting observation(!)
Of that era?
Amen.
...EVERYTHING SURE HAS GONE TO HELL SINCE THEN-!!!
The race and class metaphor of this show is brilliant
It really is funny how I never realized it till now
There is no race or class. That concept created by greed by those in power. Alive. Or dead. The only 2 classes that ecist on earth. Only fact that is true for humans.
There are also metaphors to feminism in the 1960s-70s and being LGBT
Notice how the actor playing Maurice flinches at his own magic at the beginning...makes me laugh.....loved the show and everyone in it!
He finches when the glass, the dish, and the lamps explode. I'm not sure if he's pushing something to cause the explosions, or if the explosions are making him uncontrollably flinch when they happen.
Maurice Evans was a wonderful actor.
...he certainly was-!!!
@Doc Savage...."well, ya can't please EVERYBODY!!"
Evans was born in Britain. Price was born in the US.
Don't forget Agnes.
@Doc Savage ...possibly.
Agnes Moorehead and Maurice Evans: wow!
I loved them as Endora and Maurice.
Maurice was TV show Batman...
@@KennyRyman Yes, I remember he played a villian I believe.
@@LBF522 ..."THE PUZZLER"(?)
@@daleburrell6273 You are correct. Thanks for the reminder.
It's a pleasure to watch this show just for the decor and the fashion.
F C : God yes!
Yes indeed
Oh yes. I love mid century modern decor.
reminds me of my childhood, yes I am that old ha ha
Yes, I love the fashions and decor of the late 50's-mid 60's
When Maurice started slapping that paper around.... I died!!! LOL!
As a metaphor for interracial marriage this scene is fascinating.
Or same-sex marriage from a more current perspective.
Exactly.
Or marriage between classes.
@@daniels7907 ...CRAWL BACK IN THE SEWER!!!
@@daleburrell6273 - Why would I want to go with *you* down there?
I love Samantha 's dress! She always had the best clothes.
Elizabeth Montgomery must have liked that dress a lot because she wore the same dress in four episodes of season 1:
-In the final scene of episode 7 of season 1
-In episode 10 of the first season when Maurice meets Darrin
-Episode 13-Season 1
-And in episode 24 of season 1 in a scene in which Endora turns into a double of Samantha
I think I read somewhere the actors word quite a bit of their own personal wardrobe in the show
I like how Samantha father is so powerful that when he angry like now he can make things blow up or make things happen
In the beginning they apparently allowed one witch to counter the spells of another witch but later they made it so only the witch who cast the spell could reverse the spell
I believe that's true, I was confused about that myself. I asked my friend who is really into Bewitched and he agreed.
I remember that, too. I think it were the spells (incantations - the magic where words were spoken) that were irreversible by other witches). I think I remember that Warlocks had power to reverse any witches spells. Atleast, that's how I made sense of it.
I haven't watched the show in a while. I thought witches and warlocks reverse other people spells. If they were blood-related and knew the exact words.
@@thomaswenn6049 I think they just changed the rules to make it more interesting
Lets put it in retrospective, Not has it been addressed but in the case of the more powerful Witch could use a protection again someone breaking their spell. Endora probably just allowed Samantha to break the spell, After all it was just to save 'Darwin' .Believe this too, She didn't save him just more of a reason to torture her EX-Husband. Her husband addressed "why are you not mad?" Sometimes to get the best over someone is to act indifferent to the situation.
Go, Endora, GO!
She whipped that spell up without uttering a single word. NO INCANTATION! Just Thunder! Lightning! And then, No Darrin! POW! And even Maurice can't get her to back off!
This is why I love the first season before Tabitha over all subsequent seasons. It is much more adult and sophisticated, and has many more dramatic scenes than the later seasons. I especially love A is for Aardvark, where Sam cries to Darrin. Rarely did you see Sam cry in a dramatic fashion, I think that was the only time she did it realistically, when she did in later episodes it was in a funny way because she was under a spell.
As in "Weep No More My Willow".
The Sargent years were mostly farce. All of the York years are better, but I agree that the first season was the most sophisticated.
@@landreaulover Season 3 was transitional Not only did it switch to color but their were fewer heartfelt episodes, the change in tone however was not complete yet. With season 4 however the show (almost) descends into total slapstick, especially with episodes like Double, Double, Toil, and Trouble, How Green IS My Grass, and others. Only season 7's Sisters At Heart has a return to form heartfelt tone to it. But after that "one=shot" it was back to cartoonish slapstick
A is for Aardvark was partially remade in season 6 as Daddy Comes To Visit/Darrin The Warlock parts one and two. Doesn't have the same emotion Also the addition of "new" characters like Serena, Dr. Bombay, and, of course Uncle Arthur, took "Bewitched" in a more fast paced slapstick direction.
I love the first season for exactly these reasons. The more adult topics are much more appealing to me. Yes, Alice Peace is a hoot and half as Gladys Kravitz, bringing that element to the series, but there seemed to be more adults in the room and it was very enjoyable. I always liked Kasey Rogers, but I much preferred Irene Vernon as Louise Tate. More adult.
He was mad as heck!
Love em both! No one to compare now!
A good show. I remember the series.
Endora supporting Sam and "dimweed".
Nice of her.
"dimweed"!!...that's a GOOD one-!!!
@@daleburrell6273 ....... Endora was my inspiration.
yeah but its not like darren would appreciate it. he is just a stubborn mysoginistic ass who thought he could control samantha. I really dont undestand why the writers couldn't make darren not being so annoying
@@BrandonClarke7 IF DARREN WAS SUCH A BAD GUY- THEN WHY DIDN'T HE BAIL OUT ON SAMANTHA WHEN HE FOUND OUT THAT SHE WAS A WITCH?!!
...THAT'S WHAT A WHOLE HECK OF A LOT OF OTHER MEN WOULD HAVE DONE!!!
...AND I GUESS YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN THAT DARREN STAYED WITH SAMANTHA IN SPITE OF HER RELATIVES?!! HOW MANY GUYS WOULD HAVE DONE THAT?!!
AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED- DARREN WAS 1 OUT OF A 100,000,000!!!
AND YOU CAN GET STUFFED!!!
@@daleburrell6273 just because you are writing in all caps trying to be loud doesn't make you right. i can't stand darren. most of the time on show he has been mysoginstic and tried to control Samantha. I said what I said. go get fucked
At 2:21 when Sam is standing between her parents argument she looks like a scared girl. Such good acting.
Wow lol and at first I always thought Endora hated Darren more. But now looking at this clip and looking back at some other episodes, Maurice definitely showed him no mercy compared to Endora! 😂
Never thought of this show as a metaphor for mixed marriages before.
Though I must admit .. This scene of Bewitched is the 1st time I ever saw Endora protect Darrin .. And from all people , Maurice ..
Poor Darrin .. 1st Maurice beats the daylights outta him as a newspaper , then he almost sets him on fire by throwing him in the fireplace .. smh ..
i think she quietly did love Darren. Never wanted him to hurt, certainly not dead, and knew her daughter really loved him. They bonded in the episode when Sam had Tabatha and gave each other a hug at the hospital!
@@GisherJohn24 ...it COULD have been Endora's "maternal instincts"(?)
She'd never admit she likes her son in law
@@aliostrowski1935....THAT'S BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T LIKE HIM-!!!
Excellent comedy.
Endora sticking up for Samantha and Darrin. Awesome!
So, Maurice was like Lord Voldemort, he hated muggles.
No he was ok with them.
He just was of the opinion that Witches and Warlocks ware about 6 steps above them. 😄😄😄
He was like Gellert Grindelwald though the Fantastic Beasts' version of Samantha joined up with Grindelwald in order to be with her no maj (mortal) boyfriend. Bewitched premiered on Sept. 17,1964 and Rapport's Law in the Harry Potter universe was repealed in 1965 right after Bewitched premiered. Bewitched was partially inspired by the 1941 book The Passionate Witch written by Thorne Smith and finished by Norman Matson after Smith's death. Thorne Smith died in 1934 while writing that book, though we could see a character based on him in a future Fantastic Beasts film where he wrote the book for an advertising client who was trying to get his beautiful blonde haired witch girlfriend back. Bewitched is also partially inspired by the play Bell, Book and Candle where the name of the male lead in the British version of the play is Anthony and the name of the spinster aunt is Queenie. Also in the American version of the play there is a line that states that witches gather at the top of the Woolworth building, the location of MACUSA but it was taken out of the movie version of the play.
😂😂😂
@@micheleminor1106 Bewitched was based on the movie I MARRIED A WITCH from the 1940's!
@@jonathanpikecoleman8838 The 1942 movie I Married a Witch was loosely based on the 1941 book The Passionate Witch by Thorne Smith and Norman Matson even though the movie differed from the book in different ways.
Beautiful Sam's dress
When Endora - Says You might frightened Samantha Maurice but you certainly don't frighten me.
Maurice is awesome🧙♀️
Maurice and Endora was great on the show..
I have to admit though .. This scene is funny every time I look at it .. Far as I'm concerned , Maurice already did it to Darrin .. He picked up the newspaper , slammed it down on the pavement ( Darrin should have been seeing stars at this point) , he went on to slam the poor little newspaper against his hand , and then threw it in the fireplace .. Poor Darrin should have had bumps and bruises on his body to last him a week .. Not to mention , quite possibly a burn from the fireplace . # OUCH
Maurice sure got a bad temper
When you find out your daughter married a man who’s not a warlock but a mortal, can you blame him?
@@tararocksong5085 ...I WONDER KNOW- I'M A MORTAL!!!
In the first draft script, Samantha's father's name was "Victor". When Maurice was cast in the role, it was decided he'd use his own name.
I Love Endora
It's interesting to see Endora feel protective of Dar-weed.
Maurice jumps in every explosion.
A funny idea for an episode should have been one where Uncle Arthur (Paul Lynde) puts a spell on Endora where she is super nice to Darrin. It would have been so funny.
I don't know if he would be able to do it -- I think Endora was more powerful than Arthur (maybe because she was the older sister).
I love how Endora did not like what name 😂 but when it came to her father. Endora supported Sam
Old school TV shows are the best TV.
Samantha was a princess with blue blood. Her mother and father were witchcraft royalty, very powerful..
As powerful as Endora was, Maurice was the most powerful. But I love the standoff here between the three of them.
“You’re getting stronger Endora....”
“You’re getting older dear...”
Classic!!
Maurice glares at Endora
That was a little on the warm side. Yikes! Poor Darrin.
Poor Derwood! He was more "things" than a person can keep up with!
Also known as Darwin, Donald, David, Dum Dum, and even Dumbo!
Chris Mulwee
And, in certain circles, “Dildo”. (in certain circles I said) 😉
Wow she got married and didn't invite them to the wedding!
They eloped. No parents were there.
After seeing this, can you blame Sam?
He flinched.
Great clips during these dark days. Thanks for the laughs CZcams
love the show and the special effects
It's too bad Darrin didn't know what he was getting himself into before he married Sam. I wonder if Tabitha ever got curious as to why Darrin didn't get along with Maurice and Endora. He should have told her "Well because I'm not a warlock, and they don't believe in mixed marriages, thats why things are complicated". No doubt Tabitha would ask "Well if you and mom love each other why should it matter?". Sometimes I think witches and warlocks can be kind of small minded. Maurice definitely should have been one to learn that not all mortals are bad, once you get to know us of course. I'd definitely stand up to Maurice respectfully and say "Look sir, i don't mean to question your judgement, maybe it doesn't fit your idea of normal but Sam and Darrin being married works great. We mortals aren't so different from you witches and warlocks", i just hope he doesn't blast me
In fairness, Darrin was just as small-minded. He was so hostile towards magic that he largely expected Samantha to completely cut herself off from her old life (because everyone in it was a witch or warlock). It really came across as him being bothered by the idea of his wife having powers and a life that he didn't and couldn't have.
@@daniels7907
It was the same with Tabitha - his attitude was that his daughter should not be 'contaminated' with magic - like a father with a child who has a talent for music deciding that they must never have a music lesson or an instrument to play on. He expected Samantha to accept him and the mortal way of doing everything but could not or would not accept his wife's gifts. One time he thought she had used her powers to create a campaign and he was mad about it. But when it came to changing a flat tyre in the rain on the way to a dinner party it was - hey can you twitch us out of this mess!
@@martinbennett8752 - It would also prove the same with their son Adam, who initially repressed his magic because his father was constantly denouncing magic as bad. As you point out, Darrin could be hypocritical about it at times, abruptly deciding that magic *should* be used if it would spare Darrin himself a problem that he, as a man of his time, would be expected to handle on his own. For example, in one early episode Samantha was babysitting the warlock child of some friends and Darrin really hammered the no-magic-in-this-house thing until a burglar broke in, at which point he wanted the kid to use his powers to stop the burglar!
@@daniels7907 there was also a time when Darren was given powers by Maurice, i believe, and he proceeded to use them as he desired
Well, Darrin got along with Maurice better then Endora mostly because Maurice would stand by Samantha and his grandchildren against Endora and others. As Maurice once said to Darrin when Darrin thanked him for his help, "You just got caught in the fallout of my love for my daughter"
Talking about "getting thrown into the fire." 😅
I always thought Jim Carrey would be a great choice to play Dick York if there were ever a biopic.
Yeah or a reboot of the show with modern technology and stuff.
I remember the episode from Bewitched when her father came to visit my favorite
I thought witches couldn't undo another witch's spells. how could Samantha change Darrin back after Endora made him a newspaper?
This was probably one of the earlier episodes and the rules were established later.
You could say Darrin was well read.
You are correct, continuity error.
@@mircat28 nope only if the caster didn't want it undone. Endora lifted the protection and this was explained in numerous episodes .
Yeah that tidbit must have been added later as it played a major plotline thru the rest of the show .. This must have been season one ..
What a shattering experience
Samantha will live forever, one mortal is a flash in the pan, no need to get worked up over what amounts to a fling in the scheme of eternity.
BEWITCHED was/is unique now and then. It was one of the first, if not the first, series to feature two powerful female characters. Yeah, there was THE HONEYMOONERS who had Alice who stood up to Ralph and Lucy, but neither could do what Sam and Endora could do. I recognize that the other two shows are different types of comedies.
Endora wouldn't take crud off of any mortal and Sam had her limits. Cross that line and one will face a bugged witch. I would say this, Endora has helped Darrin on a couple of occassions.
This series really put women in lead roles for eight years, right at the beginning of the women's movement.
Endora looks Gorgeous! 🟥
Miss those shows!!!!!!😃😃😃😃😃😃
I LOVE this show. How many times I’ve dreamt of being Tabitha
I love how petty Maurice is
The look on Darrins face when she took him from the fireplace
Loving these clips .... New Subscriber 😊
See what I mean ? They made poor Darrin's life a living nightmare ..
this scene is pretty dark and dangerous.
Maurice was scary AF in the earlier episodes...
Love this
Beautiful Lady,Agnes Morehead &Dick York,Off Scene Had A Beautiful Friendship,When Dick York Lower Back Injury Became Worse That Dick Your Left Bewitched It Really Saddened Beautiful Lady Agnes Morehead,That Took a Brake From Endora when Dick Sargent was the New Darrin Stevens.But After a while Beautiful Lady Agnes Revamped Endora to Work With Dick Sargent on Bewitched.Gone,BUT Never Forgiven 🙂
Who walks into someone else's house, picks up their freshly delivered newspaper and throws it straight on the fire, unread? Cheeky bugger!
Umm, an angry father?
She's a witch, it's not like Samantha can't zap up another evening newspaper.
Poor Darrin
Got the Scorch
It had to been a special spell when Endora turned Darrin into the evening paper for Samantha to reverse the spell. All of the other spells Endora casts, Samantha can’t undo.
Endora may not like Darrin, but she loves her daughter more. Endora is my spirit animal lol
First blooper, Samantha undid Andorra's spell. But I love this show and all the characters❤❤❤❤❤
No. They can undo others spells unless the caster don't want it undone.
Endora.
@@jackgibsxxx0750 in which episode is that referenced?
@@brkitdwn ..... Don't recall right off the top of my head.
I recall it being said outright at least once and hinted at many times.
Still early in the series. Those rules hadn't been established yet. But, yeah, according to revisionist history, Samantha wouldn't have been able to undo Endora's spell to bring Darrin back from the newspaper.
Endora. Serena. Esmerelda. Aunt Hagatha. Aunt Clara. Uncle Arthur. (And that cousin of Samantha's who was played by Steve Franken.)
And, of course, Maurice.
Cousin Henry
@@02chevyguy Remember when he conjured up a football player while they were in a department store?
What a Bewitching Family. See what I did there?
@@jasminnemcdonald94A No, what?!
Uncle Arthur. "Sammie"
Endora not impressed by her husband’s considerable power. Love the little “challenge” between the two. Good acting, for an old TV series.
ENDORA: “You may frighten Samantha, Maurice, but you certainly don’t frighten me.”
Endora girds her loins 😄
MAURICE: “You’re getting stronger, Endora.”
ENDORA: “You’re getting older, darling.”
👍
This is such a great show. Samantha was such a good girl.
Who remastered these? did a great job
Yeah but it's the colorized version. It's not bad but they should had used the original black and white version.
Endora protected Darrin. Hell has officially frozen over.
I guess that Darren got a bit burnt.
What episode was this from? This is one of the few times Endora took up for Darren.
Season 1-episode 10
Yea, it is funny to see Endora on Darrin's side. It just shows "the husband" is never right - even if he is a warlock.
It also shows that deep down she really does care about Darrin
"One Big Happy Family". And rightfully so.
She jokes about him, but she knew he loved Samantha.
YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER ME.
I WILL MARRY WHO EVER THE
HELL
I WANT !
😐
Where can I see the full episodes ??
I remember this lol
Poor Darren
Oh Brother..And I thought that "Endora"(Aggie Morehead)was the only one..who hated poor"Darren Stevens"(poor Dick York).
Why didn't she like him? I think it was the other way around with Dick Sargent.
Observe the eye contact between Maurice Evans and Agnes Moorehead when he commands her to show him where Dick York aka "Dustin" is.
Ignore the silly canned laughter and you realize he's pretty dangerous.
In a later episode he sends Endora to the top of Mount Everest and she is not able to leave until he brings her back.
@@brt5273 The staging, the acting, the directing and the music all make this comical. It would only take a small degree of tweaking to make it scarey.
Found a blooper,
Endora zapped him into a newspaper,and Samantha turned him back .
In a few episodes,Sam has stated,that she can’t over ride another witches spell , where tabatha turned her friend into a butterfly ,and Sam had to find her so tabatha can turn her back .
Warlock means Oath Breaker
Appearently Maurice when he is in a bad mood that whatever he sees he breaks and that isn't right nor fair for Maurice.

Poor Darin.
Can we discuss the fact that shortly after this Maurice would *obliterate* Darrin?! Who needs Avada Kedavra when you can cast a single spell that even destroys the body?
Folks who complain about Darrin really need to rewatch season 1.
🍃🕊These are 3 of the greatest actors of our time.
I dont mean to sound like Kathy Bates but "You cockadoody" she can't reverse Endora's spell😂😂
