Before WandaVision, Charmed, or even I Dream of Jeannie, there was Bewitched. A new spin on family sitcoms, the show, which debuted on September 17, 1964, featured Elizabeth Montgomery as Samantha Stephens, a loving wife to husband Darrin (and eventual mom to babies Tabitha and Adam). The twist on this average-seeming American family? Samantha and her nagging mother Endora were witches, and their collective attempt to lead normal lives while keeping their secret from the world (and, more specifically, Darrin’s boss) captivated fans for eight magical seasons.

One of TV’s most beloved classics, you may think you know all there is to know about Bewitched. But there’s still more magic to discover about this series.
