Naomi Hogan, the maid hired to help when Samantha was pregnant with Tabitha. Naomi couldn't cook nor keep house very well so Samantha would give her a little "help". It was in this episode that she went cover for the Tate's maid.
 
A Spell in Honor and Memory of Esmeralda

To cause an inanimate object to move. Esmeralda
Thirteen uncles
Eighteen neices
Waggle wag
Your tail to pieces.

Doesn't work. Let's try again.
Flap jacks and noodles
Hamburgers rare
I want two poodles
And make it a pair.
 
second part of spell

Yikes! A bear appears. Get rid of the bear:
Eat a peach
Peel a pear
O'Leary and O'Brien
Bear fade and change to air
To prove that I'm not lyin'.
 
Another Spell from Esmeralda

To straighten the Leaning Tower of Pisa.Esmeralda
My heart is light,
My spirits soar
Tower that leans
Be no more.
 
Very strange

Agnes Moorhead died of cancer thought to have been cause by being down wind from a nuclear bomb test in the 50’s. She was filming the movie "The Conqueror" about Genghis Khan. John Wayne and Susan Hayward, Both died of cancer as did the majority of the cast, it is really scary. I read also not only they were down wind, but the production company scooped up a large amount of the dirt at the location site to be brought back for use on the sound stage set. Wonder if Bewitch was ever filmed in the same sound stage. Bigger question is what unsuspecting construction sit or park/play ground got all the radio active dirt for back fill?
 
A friend did some interior designing for Susan Hayward who went by her married name of Chalkley. When she answered the door, he was sorta dumbstruck because she had given her married name on the phone. Her complexion was flawless and she had him touch her face to prove it wasn't makeup.

In the late 80s, she, along with Robert Vaughn (Man from U.N.C.L.E.) were part of a cast that did an AIDS benefit in Sarasota. As I got on the plane to go home, I nodded to Robert Vaughn was sitting in first class. Passengers back in coach started wondering if it really was Vaughn. Once I explained why he was in Sarasota, women began going up to ask for his autograph. He was still very handsome. We thanked Alice Ghostley at the reception after the show. The crowd around Vaughn was too large to get close.

I remember Bernice wearing that tree skirt at Christmas and when her daughter tried to have her separated from her crazy friends at Sugarbaker's.
