Best of Endora's Magic | Bewitched
bit.ly/Bewitch...
Endora's wardrobe was everything
Miss Moorehead wore her own clothes in the show, including her ubiquitous diamond brooch. Only the lead players had wardrobe supplied by the show.
No one could’ve played Endora but Agnes Moorhead.
Agreed, although Shirley Maclaine did a pretty good job in the Bewitched movie (although overall the movie sucked).
@@MarkovianMan the movie truly sucked. It shkd have never been made
So true! I think Aunt Clara was amazing too! It takes true talent to act that befuddled. I loved the whole cast.
@@Wirklich2420 It should have been Agnes Moorehead, at least she was here to enjoy it at the time. Aggie was robbed by that!! 😥
@@MarkovianMan Why are you showing this old look at a funny and great movie? You are too narrow in your thinking!
Agnes Moorehead was one of a relatively small group of actors/actresses who were fully successful in five media: radio, television, stage (musical and dramatic), film (in several genres) and spoken word. Unlike most, she made a successful transition from radio to television. On Bewitched, her costumes went from stylish to outrageous, but it was her voice and the cultivated mid-Atlantic diction that made Endora. (You could never be sure whether she was American, British, Scottish or an illusion of theater). In other words, talent and craft.
These observations crack me up we just enjoyed the show
Yes!
Agnes Moorehead's Andora was 1 of many brilliant characters from that series - Marion Lorne as aunt Clara, Alice Ghostley as Esmeralda, Paul Lynde as uncle Arthur were all amazing actors. Everybody looked like they were having a blast filming this show & it showed.
Good theatre apparently one of the Darren's was in serious pain due to back injuries
Oh Endora was the best!!! she always made me smile, such flair...
Hello, How are you doing?
Endora was the best part of Bewitched
I'd say Elizabeth was the best part, but they had a phenomenal cast - especially Endora, Darren #1, Aunt Clara, Uncle Arthur (Paul Lynde was hilarious)
Can I add Dr Bombay, l loved his appearances
Endora, Aunt Clara and Tabitha!!
Although Liz Montgomery was the central character in the show and she gorgeous and fabulous, the show wouldn't have been as successful without Agnes ("Aggy") Moorehead. She was a phenomenal theatrical actress and no one else could've played that character the way she did. She was truly unique and just incredible. Her kinaesthetics and vocal acting were superb. I was scared of her a kid! She was so realistic.
It was a combo of Endora, Samantha and Darren #1. The straight man Darren always reacting to Endora’s magic with Samantha mediating between the two to reach a compromise.
Endora will always be one of my favorite parts of this show-especially because I grew up watching it with my mom on Nick at Nite. She always joked that she would be just like Endora when I got married, because she would want to make sure that my husband treated her son right. Sadly, she passed away three years ago, but when I watch Endora meddle, it makes me feel like my own mother is still watching out for me (and making magic in my life). Thanks for the great memories, Ms. Moorehead. I bet you and my mom are exchanging notes in Heaven! :)
Love this story! My husband took me to a stage theater production of one of the episodes of Bewitched. He proposed to me after the show! Said Endora put a spell on him lol. I also grew up watching this on Nick at Nite, and I miss watching it with my brother, who is no longer with us. Beautiful memories! 💓
❤❤❤
Maureen McCormick played two versions of a young Endora on this show. First, in a fantasy sequence, she is Samantha and Darrin's witch daughter who they named after her maternal grandmother. And second, she is the real Endora transformed into a little girl through witchcraft.
👍
Amazing how this show still so amazingly entertaining, no outdated fashion or special effects beat superb acting and story
This fashion will always look good
I watch it still today . I watched it growing up also .
No one could speak an incantation like the Shakespearean trained actress, Agnes Moorhead. She always gave us goosebumps.
Because Endora had a soft spot for children, even mortal children, the sweetest, coolest moment, is when she turns into a tree, for the little boy on Halloween.
Had I been Darren, I would have adored her. :)
YES! ❤
Its interesting to note how little comedic work, Agnes had in her distinguished career, prior to this role. The real magic came from the actress, not the special effects dept. This woman was one of the greats of cinema and stage. Not only could she not give a bad performance, she could not deliver a line that did not burn indelibly. There was not a dull, drab or inconsequential moment in any of Moorehead's body of work.
she was bring
I would say that's a correct summation. She had been mentored by Orson Welles and was a Shakespearean- level actress. Her vocal training and mannerisms bring the Endora character to life to the point that she plays it like a Shakespearean witch in Macbeth!!! She's that incredible! She rejected the offer of the role initially when asked by Liz Montgomery when Liz ran into her in a department store one day. But later came to accept it. It is true that great actors in those days would look down their nose at television as a new medium and not a serious space for their talents. Many old studio system stars like Moorehead who were ageing rapidly during the heyday of TV in the 60s like
Crawford, Davis and so on felt TV to be beneath them and only did pilots or guest appearances when their careers were fully washed up and they had no other choice. But thank Heavens Aggy decided to accept the part of Endora because she gave younger generations a chance to see the marvels of her stagecraft and acting talents. Watching Aggy play Endora should be a masterclass for young actors these days in how to chew up the scenery and steal a show, single-handedly!!
I think the older generation of British Shakespearean actors, tended to look down on things like working in television, or science fiction and fantasy, as a step down, as something of an embarrassment to their career. The way that Alec Guinness felt about doing Star Wars...
What they didn’t realize about pop culture phenoms in television and film... is how much they are loved, by a mass audience of fans, far wider than stage and even the big screen. All these years later, both old and new generations of fans, love them.
This woman was an acting powerhouse. Anything she set her talents to was elevated. Plain and simple.
It’s all good. All of it. We were lucky to have them.
Truly.
Truest words ever spoken.
@@stmichl9433 thank you!
I loved Endora. She was wonderful and her eye makeup was on point!
She turned Darrin into a pig once and I laughed so hard at that one.😂
Rottweiler was my fave
Hello, How are you doing?
Sam couldn't help but laugh, too! I think Endora said that it was an improvement! Hilarious!
To think that Dick York and Agnes Moorehead we close friends off stage.
Thats my girl Endora. Endora took mother in law drama to another level
Agnes Moorehead : The one and only Endora
@J LA I think the main reason she didn't like her role as "Endora" was because she had a long and prosperous career as a serious actor, and she knew she was going down in history for playing "Endora," so everything else she had ever done in her time would be over-shadowed by that one role. (this is just a guess)
@@nambypamby2147 I would say that's a correct summation. She had been mentored by Orson Welles and was a Shakespearean- level actress.

@@stmichl9433 Great explanation. I appreciate the details. She was too damn good. Also, Maurice Evans was another one on the show that could act on a whole other level. He was brilliant. There are no Aggys and Maurices anymore; not on TV anyway.
@@nambypamby2147 that's right. You might get them in the theatre. But not on tv and dare I say even in motion pictures these days. There are no actors - even the ones that people say are great like Anthony Hopkins - that are like those 2. It was a whole other caliber of actor and performer. I think a great deal has to do with the use of one's voice and an actor's elocution and articulation abilities. Many even so called legendary actors now - even Streep - don't have that baffling and beautiful elocution that Aggy and Maurice had. They have a Shakespearean way with the expression of the English language as well as a particular way of enunciating, pausing, and also the use of their whole bodies to make a point, or perhaps to stress an emotion or line. Watch the way Aggy often scrunches her face up, or her stare, her glare or the way she uses her hands. Her ability to express and interpret a witch's conjuring with the waving of her hands and kinaesthetics of her arms and shoulders I always thought (even when I was a kid) were absolutely mesmerising. Strangely, and queerly, Aggy's interpretation of Endora was somehow very modern at the time, as we hadn't really seen witch's portrayed in this way. They were usually old hags. But Aggy's innate and glamorous fashion sense (those were all her own wardrobe as her clothes weren't provided by the Producers or studio) really lent a certain vitality and modernity to the role of Endora. Watching her pop in and out of various fabulous ensembles (really chic two-piece suits often) and a plethora of different Hairstyles and costume jewellery for each outfit) was part of the real magic of Bewitched. It was like a small-screen runway show at a time when we didn't have internet or runway to watch everywhere. But Endora's moving and magical fashion show was really something to watch in those days! One has to remember that Bewitched began in black and white and moved into colour and so the female audience as well as the then closeted gay audience) were able to hold their breath in anticipation of Endora's next fashion trick, or gasp at her next look. Usually, she would change out of her signature turquoise and amethyst chiffon "Endora" witch's caftan and into something "mortal" whenever a visitor came to the door unexpectedly. Endora's transitions between costumes was to me such an integral part of the trope of "passing" for queer people. Agnes was a lesbian herself and I feel looking back, that this shift from witch to mortal; from queer to acceptable; from kooky to respectable was way ahead of its time but also very much of its time in prefiguring the three liberation movements of the time: womens', gay and black through the metaphors of taboo magic and witchcraft. I just loved all those nuances and transitions in the teleplay featuring Aggy as Endora. These are stagecraft feats that a lesser actress just wouldn't have understood or perhaps underplayed, but Aggy Moorehead got it all implicitly right. She was really quite something. Quite an artist.
And I approve this message.
She was a big part of that show. Did you know she provided her own wardrobe.
Even the cape/dress?
@@marcusbell5606 Yes as I understand it.
That just makes me love her more!
She also made up the name Endora.
@@mpshields Interesting!
Maureen McCormick playing the little endora
Yes! Marsha, Marsha, Marsh!
I thought that she looked familiar.
Yes it was too! Little Marcia!!!!! She did it so well too!!!! I always thought that scene was creepy how Endora miniaturised herself and then we see mini-Marcia/Maureen playing Endora as a child! So so creepy yet so funny! Especially in hindsight knowing that this was years before Maureen was cast as Marcia on the Brady bunch as she was still so little here. So weird also how much Marcia/Maureen looks so much like a mini-Endora around the eyes! Lol omg! So so camp and funny! 😂😂😂
That show would be nothing without Endora.
Idk about that , I love Elizabeth
Neither elizabeth she and Agnes where the star of the show
I agree with you
I do agree with you
I do agree with you
Working from home, loving watching this at lunchtime, Agnes Moorhead is just wonderful
Darrin brings a lot of Endora’s wrath upon himself. He is no match for her!😆
She was a great actress .
Didn't like the bitch character Endora but loved Agnes in The Bat movie with Vincent Price.
If you think she's a bitch in Bewitched see her great bitchy performance in the superb film noir Dark Passage 1947 with Bogart and Bacall.
@@roberttelarket4934 ...YES, I REMEMBER!!!
Loved Agnes Morehead such a talented lady. As Endora she really was magical & absolutely fantastic in Pollyanna as Mrs Snow. Simple unforgettable & very much missed. 🇬🇧 8 / jan / 21
Endora will always be my favorite😂😂 she was my Nanna's favorite character and personality wise reminds me so much of her
Agnes must have spent hours in hair and makeup chair, she was stunningly beautiful.
Grand Endora reminds me of my grandmother, - same sharp tonque and a fantastic wardrobe!
Loved Endora!
Absolutely BRILLIANT. I trust that all readers have seen her incredible performance in The Twilight Zone!! What an amazing actress. I love her and I love Endora.
That show was great. I wish life could be like that
If I were Darren, I would let Sam and Endora whip me up all kinds of stuff!
Oh my goodness Little Endora was Maureen McCormick in the trick or treat episode. I knew I knew that face!!
Loved seeing little Maureen McCormick (Marcia Brady) guest starring on Bewitched.
Great! Now I need an Aunt Clara fix. She was so sweet even Darrin loved her.
I loved Aunt Clara!
I loved Aunt Clara and her clumsiness.
Everyone should have an Aunt Clara in their family. Without the backfiring powers, of course.
nice she was but she didnt know how to enter a room her powers was messedup alot samantha had to help her out most of the time
Paul Lynd was always hilarious. Even on Hollywood Squares.
People always say he was hilarious but when I look back at those episodes his humour was very corny by today's standards and the jokes just fall flat. But I suppose in those days people found that corniness hysterical. It's very dated. I do love bewitched though as a series and don't find it dated as a show. Something timeless about it. I think it's the superb acting and ensemble cast.
I love endora, she es awesome, beautiful AND adelantada a su época es tan vanguardista, ah y me encantan sus conjuros y hechizos.
Agnes Moorehead was fabulous! I loved her and Pollyanna also.
Endora did improve Darren’s looks at the beginning
I thought the curly hair looked good on him too.
Endora, always so deliciously mischievous.
Bewitched Is My Favorite Show Of All Time
*My childhood role model!*
I love love Uncle Arthur
Endorra can be as subtle as a prickly pear!
I love this traditional television series. Antiquity comedy from many decades ago. 🥰🥰❤
Apart from Samantha, Endora was my favourite, she was so naughty. 😆
Interesting how Endora's voice was a bit sharper in that early episode but then evolved to sound so elegant.
I totally love Endora she play her part the best ever and I like the love of her daughter she had and took care of whats his face 💯💞.
Who knew Marcia Brady was the younger version of Endora!
I did.
I DID-!!
I did !!
She also played “Little Endora” in a first season episode when Darrin had a daydream that all of his and Samantha’s kids were witches. They flew around Darrin’s office on brooms, and Little Endora turned her brother into a houseplant before Sam made her change him back.
@@johnmanier7968 I remember that episode was Maureen in that too??? Wow! Good spotting!
For me it was Endora, the name Endora say's it all of Beautiful Wickedness!
Endora was a cool grandma
...true-!!!
Her best exchange with Darrin is the episode where Darrin learns Tabitha is also a witch. Before he finds out he sees Tabitha's toys levitating when Endora is babysitting:
Darrin: "How do you perform feats of M-a-g-i-c in front of the baby!"
Endora: "I guess I just lost my H-e-a-d!"
I laugh out loud any time I see that clip..her response is just so dripping with sarcasm....
She was such a good actress ♥️
She was always my favorite
Endoras hands movements are amazing fantastic and so much excellent
The day Samantha got married was the day her mother got the best target to troll.
I LOVE ENDORA!!!!!
Endora had fun spells and hand motions. She also had some of the best costumes (along with Serena).
I wish I had a grandma ma like Endora
Endorasmagic creates so many different types of magical moments
Be great to be a little kid with a nan like Endora..
The very beautiful Agnes Moorehead what a lady she was. The very last of the real women -ladies of our times pure class.
Yes she was
Endora was hilarious.
Endora was Endora even off screen....
Endora and her husband were both great. But Endora was the best.
Agnes Moorhead was actually kind and cordial. Sorry her health ran away too soon.
I so miss her!! 😭there is no other person like her today, in movies/stage or telly.💜
Best tv show that ever watch I grew up watching bewitched
I ❤ I dream of jeanne
Ok
Love this program
This show is as popular today as it was back in the day!!!
The broom jockey! 🤣🤣🤣
Endora was so funy to see her great actress
Does anyone remember the episode where Endora sends Darrin to the moon under the song Fly Me To The Moon?🤣
I was born in 1982 but when I saw reruns of this show later on I think Darrin was my first male crush, I loved his pretty eyes..
A fashion icon
Didn't a few of a wish we could be Tabitha and sure there were a few housewives...🤣🤣🤣
Nine minutes Endora turns her self into a very young Marsha Brady look close
She’s far out! She was mean but I like that she adored her granddaughter and wanted her to be the best witch she could be!!
And her wardrobe!!!! 🌈 😎 🌈
AGNES MOOREHEAD EINFACH FANTASTISCH
I always loved endora
Endora tried her best to sabotage her daughters marriage
8:22
One of my favorite scenes with Endora, my favorite character!
The way she gets those kids! "I'm ready if you are..." 🤣
That was Maureen McCormick (Marsha Brady) in the cute costume at the last. She looked adorable.
yes it is.
Endora was a fashionista for Pucci.
Agnes Moorehead the best ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love this show!🧙🧙🧙🧙
A picture is worth a thousand words; ha.
The show was always at its best when Endora was appearing. I liked momma because she DID NOT mind utilizing her witchcraft at any given moment, unlike Samantha…who wanted to sustain being a domestic wife.
I so love Endora!
Endora was the first drag queen.
I would like to be the salesman for Endoras wakeup
Endora is a classic😁😁😁!!!! I love 💕💞💕 this show!!! So glad you have put this on You-Tube!!!! Darrin, Dick York, is the best to play him!!!!!!! Thank You!!!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀.. 2022......
Uncle Arthur is the best, EVER!! Love him!!! 🥀🥀🥀🥀.. 2022.
One of my heroes!
They rehashed shows Darrin had to go to Salem, the old south, and Henry's court to win back Samantha
One of the few original Bewitched characters from the start, that everyone seemed to like or wasn't annoying. Loved her and aunt Clara!
Agnes Moorehead had a clause in her contract when she only appeared in 8 out of 12 episodes so she could pursue other projects.
En dora is so cool
Just too cute.
I much preferred the original Darrin.
I Did Too
We all did! It was my first time experiencing the actors change on a TV show. It was still a bit confusing because both of their names were Dick.
Me too, he was so animated and entertaining on his character...
Listen to the audio version of Sorry Wrong Number starring Agnes Morehead.
Endors was great
I think in the beginning, Endora hated Darren being married to her daughter.
But as it progressed I think she realised Samantha was happy and started to like him.. Even though she probably would never ever admit it.
Endora made me laugh more than any other character.
I dreamed once I met Endora and she agreed to teach me witchcraft. Stuffy Samantha wouldn't do it, she was all like, "You'll feel much better if you accomplish things the mortal way, blah blah blah" But Endora was happy that I wanted to learn
