Bewitched Comes to Logo Starting Oct. 14; Sitcom Stars on Talk Shows (Week of October 15, 2012)
Bewitched is coming to Logo TV starting this Sunday (Oct. 14, 2012) and it will be serving up some Sunday vintage realness. The enchanting classic sitcom Bewitched will be casting its magic all-day on Logo TV starting at 11am ET through 10pm ET. Darrin Stephens and his enchanted witch... we mean wife... will be stirring the pot and getting up to all sorts of shenanigans. Bubble, Bubble, toil and trouble being married to a witch can be pretty wonderful. The enduring sitcom will air a marathon on Sunday, Oct. 14 from 11am-10pm ET as we mentioned, but it will also air in different blocks after that. You'll have to keep checking your listings, as it will not be on for a set schedule. The schedule for the rest of the month includes: Wednesday, Oct. 17 7pm-10pm & 1:30am-3am; Saturday, Oct. 20 10:30am-3pm; Sunday, Oct. 21 2am-6am; Tuesday, Oct. 23 12am-2am; Friday, Oct. 26 10am-12:30pm; Saturday, Oct. 27 6am-10am; and Wednesday, Oct. 31 12:30am-2am. Logo TV will be airing seasons 5-8, it seems. Bewitched has not aired on cable since it left TV Land at the end of 2011. The sitcom was also on WGN America. On Logo TV, Bewitched will join series such as Nip/Tuck and Buffy he Vampire Slayer on the line-up.
Bewitched stars Elizabeth Montgomery as Samantha Stephens, a beautiful witch who marries a mortal named Darrin, an advertising executive, played by Dick York in the first five seasons. In the sixth season and for the remainder of the series, Dick York is replaced by Dick Sargent. Samantha attempts to lead the life of a typical, suburban housewife, but she's continually tempted to use her witchcraft. With a twitch of her nose, she can instantly clean a kitchen, change outfits and make people appear or disappear. Darrin struggles to get ahead in business and cope with his disapproving mother-in-law. Endora, played by Agnes Moorehead, schemes to eliminate Darrin from her daughter's life and refuses to call him by his real name, preferring Durwood, Dum-Dum or anything else. Gladys Kravitz, the ultimate nosy neighbor, is always peeking through her window, hoping to prove that something strange is going on at the Stephens house. Of course she's right, but she never catches any of the witches, warlocks or other colorful characters who parade in and out.
