Spooky

By the way, in doing research for all those posts on "Bewitched" (and possibly a sample chapter for a book on '60s sitcoms, if I can ever get up the necessary nerve to write such a thing), I came across a 1965 article that contains one of the spookiest, unintentionally prescient quotes ever:


(Various participants in the show are being interviewed about why Dick York wasn't getting any credit for the show's success.)

Then [York] sighs. "Maybe it's me. I don't think so, but the only way to tell if it's me or not is to kill me off in one show, give the witch another husband and see if I'm missed."


Yipe.
