What a classic opening with that sponsor ad...I remember "Chevrolet" being their sponsor, & seeing Darrin & Samantha riding on the broomstick.  I still have the final MASH episode on video from 1983, (first run from CBS), when the program was sponsored by "Chevrolet".

Really-the MASH movie from February 28, 1983?

What else do you remember from the final episode's original broadcast in commercials?

[GoldenLadle]

"Oscar Mayer: Makers of Weiners" That's classic! Literally.

Thanks from Greece for sharing this!

Oscar Mayer & Co. became one of the new "alternate" sponsors of the show in the fall of 1969, after General Motors' Chevrolet division and Quaker Oats pulled out after the first five seasons [Bristol-Myers' Clairol division later became another "alternate" sponsor, as did Eastman Kodak for a brief period]. Incidentally, there was usually a "teaser" scene setting up the episode's plot inbetween Liz's "Color" I.D. and the opening title.

EEEKS! I love this rare opening(I have ABC TV network 16mm film prints with it), but I cannot take Liz Montgomery's pronounciation of the word "COLOR." Liz say "Collah"(like a dog coller). Another reason to loathe the post Dick York episodes.

Dick Sargent was alright, but he's no match for Dick York! His facial expressions alone made him a star!

DICK YORK....the REAL Darrin Stephens!

[OldsVistaCruiser]

Dick Sargent was originally cast to play Darrin Stephens back in 1964 - but he was involved in another project, so Dick York was tapped.

I do agree that York was a better Darrin, though...

A nice clip of days gone by. Good to see that some masters with the original advertisers still exist.

Good, yesterday, I decided to splash out and buy the 1st 3 seasons on DVD at my local HMV for only 29.99 Euro's each! Not bad huh? This show has me hooked! I LOVE ''Gladys Kravitzs''!

[bennjr]

I hate those cheap and sleazy adverts the integrated into the opening credits, hope those aren't on the DVD's.

[AlbieGray]

I don't think that they are. The practice ended in the early 70's if I am not mistaken. In fact, this clip was one of the last ones done, as I said, if I am not mistaken, so rest assured, I think they will not be on the DVD's.

Thanks for the great video.

This is my favoutite clip of bewitched on youtube.

I cannot wait for Dick Sargeant as ''Darrin''!
