Today’s Follies pay humble tribute to the bewitching Elizabeth Montgomery on her birth anniversary.
“Like most people, I secretly hope that it’s true – that there are witches like Samantha, and that families like hers really do exist.”
1970
Once upon a screen... 
Elizabeth Montgomery is one of my favorite people of all time and my fave TV actress. She was great. No sitcom can top Bewicthed!
I love Elizabeth Montgomery too, but don’t care much for Samantha. Sorry, Aurora. The older I get, the more I prefer Endora. Her priggish son in law has turned her daughter into a drudge and robbed her grandchildren of their birthright. No wonder she was a grump. Agnes Moorhead was a terrific character actress. Great photos.
I love both Samantha and Endora. I also love knowing that the two actresses really enjoyed each other’s company and working together. Of course had Darrin not been against the whole witchcraft thing the show wouldn’t have been as fun. And yes, Anges Moorehead is fantastic in everything. š
Gee…I just adored Elizabeth Montgomery. Still makes me wistful to think about her gone. Great photo exhibit of this beautiful actress.
Me too Theresa! Great actress gone too soon. And I included her quote about Bewitched because I think these old, fluffy shows are not appreciated as they should be. Along with our movies I never tire of watching them. Great escapes! š
Thanks for this! I adored her and still cherish Sam! You can find me catching it every chance I can… I really need to box set. Loving birthday thoughts, Elizabeth!
Thanks, Tonya! I have the entire series on DVD, a box set I found dirt cheap in Target a couple of years ago. If memory serves it was $20.
Sweet! I’ll check there too.
She was absolutely gorgeous. Plus subtely sexy in Bewitched.
And a great actress. Just love her and brings back childhood memories.
Loved Bewitched as a kid, and I remember it more in syndication. I wish to this day I could wiggle my nose and the house would be clean, sparkling, and dinner all ready!!
I didn’t see a pic from the “Samantha” episode of The Flintstones from ’65, so here you go: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/112308584428477744/
THANKS! How could I have missed that?!
It’s such a strange episode, too! It’s almost an episode of Bewitched that just so happens to have The Flintstones as guest stars. And ha! A friend here just saw this post and asked me to link this pic from the Twilight Zone episode “Two” (which also stars Charles Bronson): http://theredlist.com/media/database/films/tv-series/fantasy-and-sci-fi/1950/the-twilight-zone/025-the-twilight-zone-theredlist.png
Great! And while we’re at it, there’s also her and Tom Poston on Boris Karloff’s “Thriller” http://www.mondo-digital.com/thriller6big.jpg
