- Originally airing for eight seasons from 1964 to 1972, Bewitched followed the fortunes of Samantha, a suburban housewife, who also happens to be a witch, married to a mere mortal human, Darren. Beyond the show's magical spells and supernatural situations, was some of the best integrated car marketing of any television series in history, featuring a variety of cars as legendary as Samantha's twinkling nose. Today, we're taking a look at the cars of Bewitched. Let's begin.

Bewitched is an American fantasy sitcom television series that originally aired for eight seasons on ABC from September 17, 1964, to March 25, 1972. A beautiful witch named Samantha (Elizabeth Montgomery) meets and marries a mortal named Darrin Stephens (originally Dick York, later Dick Sargent). While Samantha complies with Darrin's wishes to become a normal suburban housewife, her magical family disapproves of the mixed marriage and frequently interferes in the couple's lives. - Авто та транспорт
This sounds like Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York are narrating this themselves ! 😅Its Great !
Growing up in the sixties and seventies , it was this show that made me fall in love with corvettes.
In the 8 seasons of Bewitched, yes they drove Malibu's, Corvair, Impala, Caprice while Larry drove a Caprice, Impala, & finally Corvettes, but I do love the Reactor Darrin got from Endora!!
Latest Chevy was Impala from1972. Larry Tate always drove classy vettes
We love all those cars
Dude. you hit this video out of the park!! Perfect back story and description of the cars!! Bravo!!!!!
That is a country sedan not a country squire
It's amazing that, in the beginning, the announcer sounds EXACTLY like Elizabeth Montgomery!
Funny you say that. I thought the same thing and the male voice sounds just like Dick York!! damn!!
.....and Darren as well.
I said the same thing to myself.
I grew up a Ford guy in the 60s and 70s. I gotta tell you, I would take all of those GM cars.
Loved the cars of Bewitched. I've owned many Chevy Impala's and enjoy seeing the cars of the 60's and 70's today. Those were the days when you could tell one car from another. Loved my 1965 Chevy impala SS, Camaro, and Chevy Caprice.
One note about the cat in the tree - that was actually the next door neighbor, Miss Parsons. That Reactor car sure got around on TV in the 60s! Star Trek used it as well as Batman when it was dressed up as the Catwoman car! It cracked me up in the committee meeting when all of the older women got into 60s muscle cars instead of more conservative vehicles! Haha!
Are you talking about the Chrysler Turbine car ??
The Jupiter 8 in Star Trek.
I was drooling after the shot of the committee meeting.
@@jons.6216 Product Placement ..
In 1978, my grandfather let me drive his 1959 Impala. It was in an empty church parking lot and only for a minute or two, but it was a thrill for a 11 yr old me. That's about the same time I got car fever.
That parade of Corvettes would be worth a fortune now...
Love the recreation of their voices. Well done!
I loved that show when I was a kid, especially for the cars!! Got my license in 1965. Dad had a 65 Corvair Corsa, Mom a 63 Ford Galaxy Wagon, then a 66 Mustang.
Boy those voice overs sound like the actors in series
5:49 For future reference the Country Squire has the wood on the side. That was a Country Sedan.
I spent a lot more time than I should have, trying to prove it a Ranch Wagon. It is a Police car after all, wouldn't it be the bottom rung? I checked out the 1970 Ford Police vehicles brochure and 'chure enuf there is (was) a Country Sedan cop car. Looked closer at the video and it does appear to say Country on the rear fender, Sedan being broken off. Then I notice it has full wheel covers and decide, it's *not* a cop car at all, just a studio prop! 🥴
@@trudygreer2491 Most cars you see in TV shows and movies were grabbed as cheaply as possible and made into what the studio needed, at that time, so yes I think it was a Country Sedan made into what they needed.
Ok Concourse Correct UA-cam commenter ..
This was when GM really made great cars before the oil embargo of 1973.
This is exactly I watch Catchy Comedy (an OTA) channel, along with Me-tv.....to see all the cars in their hey day!!!
It was cool in this era my Brother and I grew up in the 1950s-70s that the TV shows were sponsored by the Big three automakers from GM, Ford and Mopar. You'd always see their latest vehicles ! 👍 😎
Chevrolet was a sponsor of Bewitched. That custom green car is the Jupiter 8 and on the front seat is a tube of Mars toothpaste and a box of Neptune bath salts.
Credit for the The Reactor (the first vehicle shown) goes to custom car builder Gene Winfield. The car also appeared in an episode of Star Trek and as Catwoman's Catmobile in the 1960s Batman TV show.
Great video! I love the dialogue being read in the voices of Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York. As a car crazed little boy, I remember watching some shows just for the cars, but I loved Bewitched because I was absolutely twitterpated by Samantha.
As a teen I enjoyed seeing the different cars on the show. I'm sure it influenced me to own a corvette. In 1982 I bought an 81 with 2000 miles. Still have it today with currently 25000 miles. Have two granddaughters that may be driving it to school someday. Time someone got some joy out of driving a classic.
SUPER glad I discovered these videos!! Absolutely delightful, Fusion, job well done!
They played down Elizabeth Montgomery's beauty.
And her Southern Belle accent! But sometimes it slips out.
That's impossible
The people speaking sounds just like Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York!! BRAVO!!
If I recall. Pontiac Motors sponsored 'Bewitched.' You often would see them driving Pontiac cars on the show. My old hometown. Pontiac, Michigan
The 67 C2 Corvette is the most desirable GM on the show. It had the big block 427 powering it. Look closely at the hood. Plus growing up in that era I honestly don't remember a 4- door Corvair. I had friends with the 2- door convertible.
Nice video!
I hope you do the Classic Cars Of My Dream Of Genie video..
Paul Lynde always cracked me up as Uncle Arthur as well as in a few other guest starring roles.
Great video, I always loved the cars on this show!
1:55 '63 or '64 chevy p/u 2:02 directly behind them: '61 Chevy Impala, next to that a 1st gen Corvair the gold car a '62-'65 ChevyII and the red car way in the back is a '63 Impala.3:00 '65 Chevelle wagon and in the background a yellow '68 Chevelle..4:21 It's that red Impala again! Also a '65 Chevy wagon and a '68 Chevy. 4:56 that '62 Buick special leading the way is very cool.5:01 just for giggles the car sorta behind the yellow chevy is a '57 Pontiac6:18 WOW11:24 ok I have 2 point out 2 cool cars in the background: a early '60's Rambler and behind it a '61 Studebaker lark.11:35 nice '66 or '67 Mercury Caliente.11:37 &11:46 I wondered why the switch to Pontiac and I remembered the '70's introduction was delayed by an auto workers strike.12:32 how cool is that? See kids electric cars are nothing new.14:23 well as much as you can speed off in a Corvair! Back when shows were associated with cars, Beverly Hillibillies MOPAR Andy Griffith Ford, and yes even Bonanza had huge ties to the bow tie. Great job Fusion Kidd! I appreciate the work(and research) that goes into these videos.
@@richardrice8076 Thanks for filling in the gaps, I was hoping somebody would. I appreciate it!
@@FusionKidd you're welcome. I was afraid you'd think I was trying to show you up.
Don't forget Mr. Ed sponsor (Studebaker), & I Dream Of Jeanie (Pontiac), & The Man From UNCLE ( Chevrolet ).
Unsafe At Any Speed !!
@@FusionKiddnow we need hazel. My three sons leave it to beaver mannix. Mission impossible. Fbi
It's called Product Placement,GM behind this,it's a win-win.
Back in the early 70s my mom drive a Mailbu chevelle convertible, and I loved that car as a kid...
Narrators sound like Samantha and Darren. Is it my imagination…
Its funny how Samantha's driving instructor....later became Uncle Albert
Paul Lynde's performance as Harold Harold was so lively, the character of Uncle Arthur soon followed...and Bernard Fox (Osgood Rightmire in the stalled-out '66 Caprice) soon appeared as Dr. Bombay
i know this vid is about the Cars of the show..but when i was a boy Elisabeth Montgomery was my kid crush..she was just sooooo Gorgeous!!!.🥰
Your not alone my brother. She was sweet gorgeous.
Now every male here that's at least 45-50+had the hots for Samantha Stevens...Bewitched was Elizabeth Montgomery's prime time!!
I'm in my mid 60's & I will admit to that😍.
I especially liked the episodes with Serena. Lots of leggy short dresses and that raven hair really made Elizabeth extra sexy.
@@guillermo3564 YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!🥰🤪.
If you were a teenage boy in those days this was your concept of the American Dream. A great job, a barbie doll wife, a beautiful house in a dream neighborhood, and of course ever more fantastic domestic cars. If you arrived a bit later when it got replaced by All In The Family, it pretty much defines your current views.
WOW what beautiful cars, most of which I had today. Sad thing is I remember when most of these cars were brand new......lol
My gosh they had beautiful cars on that show. I guess I was too busy falling for Sam and even more so, Serena. "Darker"women always stayed with me.
Pandora Spocks!
During the entire run of the series 1964 -72 Chevrolet sponsored the show and provided the vehicles. I just got my age handed to me I remember Larry tate driving corvettes .
I loved how Bewitched had all new Chevs , I did not care for the style of the 67 Impalas and the 70 , the rest were great . It is the first time ,I saw a Rolls Royce with fender skirts .
When I was a little kid my mom watched this show , us kids had to watch it also ,i remember my dad being at home one day ,see , he was a mechanic at the local Chevy dealership that's all he could talk about was the CHEVYS 😂❤
Pretty interesting seeing how Chevrolet was the primary sponsor of the TV series, & having all those other manufactures in the TV show not to . mention the countless ones as back drops that weren't mentioned. I did notice there toward the end in the skyline a American gas station sign. This was one of my favorite TV shows to watch as a child, I still own 3 Chevrolet Corvairs 64,65. & a 67.
That was well done very well done
Wow! Awesome video. 🎉
they went thru a lot of cars.
@@kc0lif thanks mainly to Chevvrolet.
I was beginning to wonder if they ever did drive the same car twice!
This channel is great! Even getting the voices to sound like the actors. I dare you do one of CHiPs. You will probably need a video per episode. But I would watch every one!
Your so gay for Ponch ..
& John ..
And Randi Oaks
Dazza had a car for every day of the year.that gold 65 impala hardtop was sweet as
The 69 z28s and the Corvettes are everywhere in this show. I grew up around C3s they will always be my favorite. I never owned one but owned newer models most C3s Ive found have problems Ive always had a bootleg used car lot 😂 in my backyard hey! gotta have a side hustle to make some extra cash. I don't collect cars everything is for sale a white 1977 L 88 is the most beautiful car love that yr.
Remember the show from the mid 70’s called “The Magician” starring Bill Bixby?
He always drove a white C3 , I think it was only on for one or two seasons.
Well done …especially catching that 72 convertible … the last model year of this beloved sitcom. which can be easily mistaken for a 71 from the angle this was filmed
I bet Liz was a fine ride as well 🤔
Look at the row of convertibles at the 9 minute mark
good job picking out the 60 corvair ..only year with that front badge,,,,been driving corvairs for 45 years great cars ..an the oil leaks are history
Great clip!! And a bit of realism at 17:33--the dent in the quarter panel! The typical everyday vehicle is not without its flaws.
I never knew this was going on with the cars in Bewitched
One scene not shown here was from the Season 6 episode "Santa Comes for a Visit and Stays and Stays:" Larry is driving a yellow 1969 Corvette Stingray C3 with a 427 V-8 (and the 427 callout on the hood is clearly visible)...and in the same episode, Darrin pulls up in a silver 1970 Impala convertible to encounter Larry, Santa and his elves on the front lawn
I'm surprised to see all these Super Sports and Corvettes on Bewitched. I didn't know about muscle cars as a kid back then. I thought they only drove sedate cars on that show.
Darren was an advertising executive , he was young and classy so he and his boss Larry drove cool cars .I imagine it was the hip image that wanted to portray .
sweet cars. obviously a gm sponsored tv show. though, i could have sworn i saw larry tate, darrens boss, pull up in a red shelby mustang. that was a long time ago. maybe it was, i dream of jeannie?
Chevrolet was the sponsor for Bewitched so naturally most automobiles in the series were GM, but i honestly forgot about those others,like Ford, Cadillac, and Bentley. And i always thought Darrin's "dream car" was a heavily disguised C-3 Corvette (because of the front end).
love all the background shots of Warner ranch....some really missed IE the New York facades are in the background on a lot of the car shots..sad that it is no longer.
This is so weird,
I always thought he (and his best friend) were always Air Force Officers, I never knew he had a seperate career with a boss & everything ..
That was I Dream of Jeannie.
Not a Ford or Dodge in the group. Back in the 60’s American auto makers Chevy, Ford, and Chrysler all sponsored TV shows on the three major networks buying advertising time by way of commercials. But it didn’t stop there. They incorporated their products in the episodes as well to help sell cars. I wonder what manufacturer sponsored “Bewitched?”
General Motors (GM)
The cars are great! But I'm totally impressed by the incredible voice actors. The woman sounds just like Elizabeth Montgomery and the man sounds just like Dick York. I'm wondering if the voice actors had been searched for. Or if we have technology now that can replicate voices from a sampling?
14:59 the license plate on Darren's Camaro convertible looks like a manufacturers plate.
@17:31...whiskey dent.
The show was sponsored by GM...also Frigidaire and Corningware products shown in the kitchen made by GM.
1:30 June Lockhart - Lost in Space, 1:38 Jerry Mathers as The Beav.
That weird green/gold car was in my shop at one time, semi rough shape, was on startrek too! Was a Gene? Creation. Was ok but close up things werent so perfect but created in 70s.
@1:09 you can watch the unique Citroen suspension work as the rear rises when the car brakes.
Nerd alert- All of the corvettes in the soap box parade are C2’s. C1’s were only 1953 and 1954
Saw the Andy Griffith and Star Trek episodes, just found this. What was this called , when they made these with the actual actors? Very interesting promo or retrospective ! Weird that Dick York is voicing over a Dick Sargent episode.
Thank you for posting these .👍👍👍
Artificial Intelligence
For the first time, I'm astounded to see that there were cars other than Chevys on this show.
Especially in the Salem episodes! Pontiac and Ford were well represented.
If Derwood was'nt such a wet blanket, Samantha could have "any" car design she wished.😜
Anyone else notice George Washington was grandpa Walton?
Is it just me, or does the male narrator sound very similar to Dick York?
@cheaptricked it's by design, the female voice sounds very much like Sam. It's one of the cool features of these videos.
I thought I saw every episode, but you found allot I've ever even seen!!!! Where did you find those early episodes??
50 years and I just noticed that 1st car is a trike. The vehicle towing the sub is not a 70 anything.
Original cast voices narrarating these?
Isn't A.I. voice duplication amazing? I hope they do more.
It must have been filmed in the back a lot of a GM dealership
Chevrolet was the shows sponsor. Early episodes incorporated that into the opening credits.
That guy soinds like the first darrin
Saw the Andy Griffith one, and just found this. What was this called when they made these with the actual actors? Very interesting promo or retrospective ! Thank you. They are great.👍👍👍
I own every episode of the show
You should consider cars from “ the A team “ next
I have never thought of those old Rolls Royce's as stylish. Lumbering was more the word I would use.
Why do they sound like Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York?
Idk I might argue I Dream Of Genie had way better cars and possibly more of them and Genie was way hotter
Has anybody noticed that there is no mention of a Toyota or a Nissan or a Honda in here anywhere. In fact most of these cars are GM’s
I noticed an awfullot of Chevys in their show...they obviously had a deal with a local Chevrolet dealership, or GM , to provide them with free cars for the show , to get free advertizing. I wish I had one of those Camaro SS's now....
Chevrolet was the show's biggest sponsor. There were even commercials with Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York in character as Samantha and Darren talking about "the new Chevrolets..."
I need to make a correction for you. The woman who you refer to as Mrs Stevens whose cat was stuck in a tree, is not Mrs Stevens. Mrs Stevens was played by Mabel Anderson.
This is when America was normal and fun. America didn't hate America. pity
I hate/love the voices. Shame on you. Good for you.
🎼🎵🎶🎵
😎 🆒️ 🎉
That wasn't Salem.
Elizabeth's legs are beautiful
where did the studio get a 1916 Baker Electric??? Wow
I’m curious where those cars are now
That would be very interesting to know It would take ALOT of research but I’m sure it could be traced if any sort of records still exist
Seeing that most of them are GM cars they have been scrapped years ago.
It is not necessary to put the C3 after the 1970 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.
In recent years many people tend to reference the manufacturer’s internal identifier for each iteration of a model. Some people like to reference the different generations.
@@blueberrycobbler I know, they think it makes the sound smart. It does not.
Sarena was so much hotter than Samantha !!
A few kit cars but nothing classic about the rest.
