    Dick Sargent was the original choice for the role of Darrin Stephens on Bewitched but was unable to commit to the series at its start. Dick York was then hired and Sargent replaced him when York left the series due to increasing back pain.

    In Bewitched Samantha's nose twitch evolved out of a real life mannerism. Elizabeth Montgomery would twitch her upper lip causing her nose to follow.

    Nicole Kidman is set to play Samantha Stephens in the movie version of the long-running series Bewitched. For the role Nic has to train her nose to twitch in order to cast her spells. She's undergoing an unusual kind of exercise routine to achieve the nose wriggle made popular by Elizabeth Montgomery in the TV show. In a recent interview she said I haven't gotten the nose down yet but I'm determined that I'll do my own nose twitching and they won't have to use special effects.

    On Bewitched Tabitha Stephens was originally played by twins Erin and Diane Murphy. Because they were fraternal twins they increasingly looked different as they grew up. Thus in the later series it was decided that Erin would continue the role alone.

    The first LIVE-ACTION (i.e. not counting Fred & Wilma Flintstone who were the true first) TV couple to share a bed were Darrin & Samantha Stevens from 'Bewitched'. Producers felt they could get away with it because Samantha wasn't human she was a witch.

    When Samantha doubles as her look-alike sister Serena in Bewitched the credits list her as 'Pandora Spocks'.
