TV Promos: Bewitched / Odd Couple / Brady Bunch / Partridge Family / That Girl (2/2) (1970)

Bewitched is an American situation comedy originally broadcast for eight seasons on ABC from 1964 to 1972, starring Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick York (1964--1969), Dick Sargent (1969--1972), Agnes Moorehead and David White. The show is about a witch who marries a mortal and tries to lead the life of a typical suburban housewife. Bewitched continues to be seen throughout the world in syndication and on DVD and was the longest-running supernatural-themed sitcom of the 1960s--1970s era.

Barefoot in the Park is a romantic comedy by Neil Simon. In September 1970, ABC launched a television series based on the play. Barefoot in the Park was one of two television series based on Neil Simon plays to debut on the network that month, the other being The Odd Couple.

The Odd Couple is a 1965 Broadway play by Neil Simon, followed by a successful film and television series, as well as other derivative works and spin offs, many featuring one or more of the same actors. The plot concerns two mismatched roommates, one neat and uptight, the other more easygoing and slovenly. In the original play these were male; Simon also made a version for a pair of female roommates, called The Female Odd Couple.

The Immortal is an American television series, which aired on ABC from September 1970 to January 1971. The series is based on a pilot movie of the same name, which aired in September 1969. The pilot is based on the science fiction novel The Immortals, by James Gunn. Although the series was cancelled at midseason, episodes were rerun by ABC in the summer of 1971.

The Brady Bunch is an American television sitcom starring Robert Reed, Florence Henderson, and Ann B. Davis, which revolves around a large blended family. The show originally aired from September 26, 1969, to March 8, 1974, on ABC and was subsequently syndicated internationally.

In a 2010 issue of TV Guide, the show's opening title sequence ranked #8 on a list of TV's top 10 credits sequences, as selected by readers.

Nanny And The Professor is a U.S. fantasy situation comedy created by AJ Carothers and Thomas L. Miller for 20th Century Fox Television. During pre-production, the proposed title was Nanny Will Do. The series first aired on January 21, 1970, on ABC and was last telecast on December 27, 1971. The series enjoyed initial success due to its Friday night timeslot when it was scheduled between The Brady Bunch and The Partridge Family, which were similar shows, aimed largely at young children and pre-teens. Ratings suffered in the third season when ABC moved the series to Monday night opposite Gunsmoke and Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In. After it was canceled, the show had a brief run in syndication.

The Partridge Family is an American television sitcom about a widowed mother and her five children who embarked on a music career. The family lived in San Pueblo, a small fictional town in Northern California. The series originally ran from September 25, 1970 until August 31, 1974 on the ABC network, as part of a Friday night lineup. It had subsequent runs in syndication.

That Girl is an American television situation comedy that ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971. It stars Marlo Thomas as the title character, Ann Marie, an aspiring (but only sporadically employed) actress, who had moved from her hometown of Brewster, New York to make it big in New York City. Ann had to take a number of offbeat "temp" jobs to support herself in between her various auditions and bit parts, though she nonetheless was able to afford a spacious Manhattan apartment as well as an extensive wardrobe of mod fashions. Ted Bessell played her boyfriend Donald Hollinger, a writer for Newsview Magazine; Lew Parker and Rosemary DeCamp played Lou Marie and Helen Marie, her concerned parents. Bernie Kopell and Ruth Buzzi played Ann and Donald's friends. That Girl was developed by writers Bill Persky and Sam Denoff, who had served as head writers on The Dick Van Dyke Show (and with which Thomas' father Danny Thomas was closely associated) earlier in the 1960s.

Love, American Style is an hour-long television anthology which was produced by Paramount Television and originally aired between September 1969 (see 1969 in television) and January 1974. For the 1971 and 1972 seasons it was a part of an ABC Friday prime-time lineup that also included The Brady Bunch, The Partridge Family, Room 222, and The Odd Couple.

@Zoink555

It was foolish for you to watch them if you are prone to illness of this sort.

Ratings for Bewitched post Dick York went steadily down after Dick Sargent came

to the show.

@chuggachuggawoowoo what's wrong with homosexuals even though they should not show them having sex.

[RedDogLunch]

William schallert does the voiceovers.

[chuggachuggawoowoo]

I remember all of these. Imagine...television with no cursing, no half-naked whores, no graphic violence, no horrible murders, no rapes, no homosexuals, and none of the other awful crap you see and hear constantly on television today.

@Zoink555 The Odd Couple was great. Bewitched tanked after Dick York left.

I hated these shows so much, because I was too young to understand them, LOL. But the memories flow when I watch this, and now I have learned to love the Introductions, but won't watch these, even now. Thanks for the upload.

@TIPTON340 I agree with you, but Samantha got prettier!
