I started watching Bewitched on Nick at Nite, the black and white episodes, around 1996 and I thought she was great but I had no idea at the time she had passed away or that Dick York had, too, after years of hardship. I thought they were both so great in the series, too. Those two first seasons are still some of the best of any comedy series I've seen.

Oh yes, I agree! No pun intended but when I watch the first two years I realize just how magical the show was. There were so many fresh and unique episodes. I have this on DVD and occasionally run a marathon for myself.
The episodes that really resonate with me are the ones that focus on Sam and Darrin's love for each other.
Some are just funny to me in a way that I didn't "get" when I was a little kid watching it in the sixties. I just watched the episode where Sam and her mother were experimenting with Darrin's face while he was napping. They forget to change him back and he answers the doorbell. Gladys Kravitz freaks out and screams.
Darrin is understandably upset and insulted. He yells at Sam TO CHANGE HIM back. "I've grown accustomed to my face!"
