Keeping This On Topic

Noticed during the marathon in the final series years, Sam's washer and dryer changed, but could't make out what they were? Any guesses?

Also wonder why if Sam's house had a ultility closet, why her washer and dryer were out in the open near the kitchen door (raised up a bit).

Just as an aside, it is so funny to see the various incarnations Sam's house took on the inside, since many are impossible given the how the house looks from the outside. For instance there are at least three bedrooms upstairs (master suite (including walk in closets and bathroom),a guest bedroom, and the nursery/Tabitha's room. The living room has a super high ceiling and from the outside it seems there is nothing "upstairs" over it, so where are all those bedrooms?

There is a builder who will actually build you any famous TV house you wish, ranging from the Brady Bunch's, Bewitched, The Partridge Family, and even Happy Days (my favourite house next to Sam's).

The sponsor who supplied them probably wanted, reasonalby, air-time and visibliy. The serices theoretically takes place in CT, probably in the southwest portion of hthe state commutable to NYC, if so the W&D would most-likely have been in the basement in their era, IMHO

I agree, the upstairs of that house (outside photo) is unrealistic. Case in point the "dog-houses" in the roof over the "L" portion of the house that juts forward (over the den/office) are ridiculous. IMHO these would never be there in reality.

Back to appliances- IIRC there was a gas grill built in to the right of the flair range. Can anyone clue me in or am I delusional? What was the brand-name on those, (total eclipse of the brain) LOL

In reality, this prop was copied from a home that looks almost identical to 1164, "dog-house" windows included. The original house has one window in the Living Room, whereas the fascade has two windows in the LR.
 
which witch's washer was which?

I'd guess those last years,starting in Sept.1969,which was the opening of season 6,and the show ran 'til 1972,had a Maytag washer-dryer in the now remodeled kitchen that had a Maytag dishwasher for sure in it.By the way, who can answer my odd question several posts up?Thanks
 
p.s.I've always liked Bewitched much more than Jeannie,who else agrees or disagrees?I enjoyed Jeannie,but to a lesser degree.And who out there loved the wonderful show My Favorite Martian with Ray Walston and Bill Bixby.My list of beloved fantasy 1960s shows,in order are: The Flying Nun,My Favorite Martian,Bewitched,Mr.Ed,I Dream of Jeannie

I stand corrected from my Trivia Posting above, that I had written that Dick York was also Gay, but that was not true. He did as others mentioned, Passed-Away from Emphaizema {sp}.

From everything I've heard, the Bewitched movie isn't worth seeing. Personally, I have a low tolerance for Will Ferrell in anything.
 
Bewitched Movie

Just saw the movie....well, it was cute. (in the south "cute" is the kiss of death)...I went in with low expectations and they were met. My kids thought it was fun, maybe I was a bit jaded.
 
Movies are released today as a brief stop before going onto DVD,where the real money is these days. People who attended the advance showings of Bewitched stated it was a bomb and basically was a remake of "Sleepless In Seattle".

It is a movie that cannot decide what it wishes to be; a remake of the popular sitcom series, or a romance/love story. Personally think a telly remake would be better as a sitcom, the story just does not lend itself well to movies.

Nora Ephron

I don't know what happened to ol' Nora. She used to be a very witty and insightful columnist back in the Esquire days, and her novel "Heartburn" is hillarious, but the schlock she has put out since she moved back to Hollywood is worthless.

And to think that she is the daughter of Henry and Phoebe Ephron, who wrote some of the funniest movies of their time.
 
I'm a Bewitched Lover

I have loved Bewitched all my life, personally I wish they would have just left the show alone, but they didn't.

If you were a Bewitched lover like me I would recommend the movie, if nothing else to see scenes from the original show on the BIG-SCREEN! Otherwise I would see it, but I would wait for the DVD.
 
The only good thing about the Bewitched Movie

The complete 1st season of the series on DVD. Being a huge lover of the Bewitched, I had a great many of the episodes on video tape. Even though the stations hack them up to make room for more commercials. You can image my dismay when the VCR decided to eat one of the tapes.

I Just hope they keep releasing the rest of the series.
