16 August 2011 9:57 PM, PDT | Twitch | See recent Twitch news »
Darrin from Bewitched can suddenly read minds! But he might be wishing he really was a witch's husband before the lighter-than-usual episode concludes. The Twilight Zone, Episode #52: "A Penny For Your Thoughts" (original airdate 02/03/61) The Plot: A man buys a newspaper, drops a coin in the vendor's box, the coin lands on its edge -- and the man is suddenly gifted with the ability to read minds. The Goods: Mr. Hector B. Poole (Dick York) makes all the typical mistakes made by a beginning mind reader: He stares at people, he replies to what they're thinking rather than what they're saying, and he thinks busts (the artistic kind, not the womanly physical sort) are talking to him.

London, Aug 11: American situation comedy 'Bewitched' is all set to be remade.
The original 1960s series, starring Elizabeth Montgomery, Dick York, Dick Sargent, Agnes Moorehead and David White, ran for eight seasons. It was a huge hit.
The show was reinvigorated in 2005 when Nicole Kidman stepped into Montgomery's shoes in the big-screen adaptation.
The CBS television network wants to weave their magic on the sitcom now. They have ordered a script from Sony Pictures Television, reports dailystar.co.uk.

'Bewitched' remake: Casting suggestions for Samantha and both Darrins
10 August 2011 6:38 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
News broke Tuesday (Aug. 9) that CBS and Sony are developing a remake of the 1960s sitcom "Bewitched." Our first thought was "Another remake?," and our second was "Hope it's better than the Nicole Kidman-Will Ferrell movie."
Then, as it tends to do, our minds wandered to casting the roles of suburban wife and witch Samantha (played by Elizabeth Montgomery in the 1964-72 series) and her mortal husband Darrin (played by Dick York for five seasons, then by Dick Sargent). We have several ideas for Samantha -- some conforming to the pretty-blonde archetype set by Montgomery, some not so much. And since the change from York to Sargent is such a part of the show's history, we've gone ahead and suggested a few pairs of Darrins as well.
Samantha, going with type: We immediately thought of Sarah Chalke, the former "Scrubs" and "Mad Love" star (we know she just »

CBS Developing a Bewitched TV Series Remake
9 August 2011 7:49 PM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
The networks are starting to order scripts for the 2012-2013 season. Each network will order dozens of scripts. Some of those will be filmed for a pilot. A small fraction will then be ordered to series. We won't cover every script here at Collider, but we will try to address a few of the more notable projects in development. Last night, that was the Lincoln Laywer series. Earlier today, it was a modern-day Frankenstein. And tonight, right on the cusp of noteworthy, we have a Bewitched remake. The original sitcom about a witch and her beleaguered mortal husband ran from 1964 to 1972 on ABC. Will Ferrell and Nicole Kidman led a film adaptation that wasn't especially successful in 2005. Douglas Wick and Lucy Fisher, the married couple behind the movie, didn't let that set them back -- they will executive produce a new series at CBS by way of Sony Pictures Television. »
