    "what is normal to you, young man, is to us, asinine." Agnes Moorehead's delivery, especially in this scene from entrance to dramatic exit, shows what a truly brilliant actress she was.

      @@ghenulo I don't think it's a simple as that. What Samantha does suppress is her PRIVILEGE, all of her witch/warlock relatives are depicted as aristocratic (and vaguely Euro), and the point of her not gaining advantages through witchcraft is a stand-in for not accepting financial help from one's wealthy family and instead making it on one's own with one's spouse. The ONLY reason we sympathize with the mostly boorish Darrin is that he wants career success by way of hard work vs spells cast, i.e. middle class work ethic vs the idle life of extravagant wealth.

      h d At the time that was probably true, however it is amazing how things take on a new meaning as times change. That said, there was an episode where Samantha actually asked Darren to Drop an account with the firm. The account was a candy company that wanted a mascot that looks like the ugly old witch hag. I liked that episode because it felt like it was the first time that Darren had stood up for Samantha‘s identity and fully embrace the fact that he had married a witch.

    As I got older and watched this show in reruns years later I came to realize Endora was right. Even though Darrin didn't know Samantha was a witch at first once she told him he had a choice to either divorce her or stay married to her. He chose to stay married but refused to let her be who she was which was totally selfish and was the reason Endora and rest of the family gave him so many problems.

      01FamilyJewels: “Careful young man or you’ll driving an artichoke.” As a show, it was a very plausible concept that lasted eight seasons. Agnes Moorhead, in addition to being very well educated (BA, MFA Eng. Lit) provided the tartness to keep BBC this from being sappy although it would have been better to state that Sam came from a parallel universe and was visiting Earth when she met Durwood, I mean Darrin. The commercial film should have been much better and yes, about halfway through, the actor playing Darrin should have been replaced by someone similar.

I am old enough to recall the days when Bewtiched was on television, and not in reruns! I think it is a lot of younger people who make the mistake of analyzing too much.

    Folks are complaining about Darrin not wanting Samantha to use her powers .... the actual fact is that she did anyway, in just about every episode.
    What I got out of BEWITCHED as a kid, was that family may try to stifle you, but your natural talents will shine through every time anyway.
    If you watch all the seasons, Darrin does eventually give in and admit a few times that he was probably wrong with his initial feeling about her powers.

      Good take on it, and correct. These people complaining are fixated for their own reasons, on a tiny aspect of a sitcom that ran for many seasons. The show simply would not have worked if Samantha and Darrin were not trying to keep everyone from finding out about her being a witch. So many funny things and silly misunderstandings happened around that and kept the show popular.

    The script writers merely followed what was then the acceptable social norms. Husband was the head of the house and women were expected to comply, quit work and be housewives and mothers, totally relying on their husbands to support them. Even their identity was suppressed and she became Mrs DARRIN Stevens. Ironically, the script called for Samantha's parents to be quite liberated and enjoy their own flamboyant lifestyles, separately.

    @robichu3023 2 года назад +5

    Alright, to me Darrin is by far my favourite character of the show (the 1st one at least). I really identify myself to him. But why do so many people always say "what a jerk, he shouldn't restrain Samantha's powers and let her be who she is" or some other stuff about their relationship and the way Darrin treats her.
    Well first thing, he likes who she truly is as when Samantha asks him in an episode if he would prefer her with or without her powers, he says he prefer her the way she is(with her powers).
    Then Samantha AGREES not to use witchcraft in the first place, if she was disatisfied with the brohibition of witchcraft she could've leave Darrin at any moment.
    An come on, be in Darrin's shoes for a second, you live a normal life and then out of nowhere you are circled by witches, for real this wouldn't be something very amusing at first, even if some people wish they exist(at least in the form they are presented in the show) I'll bet those same people would be freaked out for a minute upon seeing actual witchcraft for the 1st time.
    If Darrin fully accepts Samantha to use her power the show would probably be less interesting (there might even not be any show as Darrin would probably get along a lot better with Endora) and he even did in one of the 1st seasons episodes where he breaks his leg, and what did Samantha do? She got back in time because she didn't like this version of Darrin.
    So Darrin might be this narrow-minded jerk who "rejects" Samantha's true identity for most people, but I personaly know that Samantha loves Darrin just the way he is and if you think twice about it, Darrin got his reasons to behave the way he does with witches, he just never explicits it.
    And it's not like, aside from Samantha, Aunt Clara and a select few other witches, Darrin was disliked from the get go because he simply was a mortal, he tried to get along with Endora, but she was the one who started their never-ending fight, look at his face when he first saw her, he was so exited to meet her.
    Most witches seen in the show are really narrow minded too, thinking that all men are the same, each more stupid than the other. Darrin was judged and sentenced even before he had a chance to prove himself.
    So I say it, I pity Darrin ! He made mistakes alright, he isn't perfect (of course), but he isn't any way worse than Samantha or Endora, he has his own vision of life, and that's respectable, it's just that it's clashing with most witches' vision of life, and he (for the most amount of the time) doesn't deserve what happens to him during the show(even if it's funny).
