Dick York was in lust with Elizabeth Montgomery

Also...

OP stop making shit up. The man could barely walk when he left.

She was fucking gorgeous. Even I as a Kinsey 10 can see that.

R2, watch r1.

R3, I concur. EM was gorgeous but also charismatic, talented, and funny. She probably wanted a gay Darrin to keep her co-star crushing to a manageable level.

He does sound kind of creepy in that youtube clip.

She must be a great actress then, because on the show you would never guess she didn't like him.

Elizabeth was a cunt. I know, believe me

He had a beer can cock and in a fit of lust he showed it to her once. She stared at that throbbing barrel of a dick and her talon-like fingernails were just inches from stroking the knob when she caught herself and turned away.

It was then she knew she’d never be able to think of anything but being filled up by the paint can of a penis and she begged to Studio to send his thicc prong elsewhere.

Was it so heavy it caused his back problems, R8?

Same here, and just like you, I'm all kinds of gay.

did 'im..

A Kinsey 10? I thought it went up to 6?

Elizabeth was extremely kind to people whenever she was on a game show. She was wonderful on Password. Her and DL Goddess, Betty White are probably my favorite celeb password players.

Her and DL goddess…

Oh piffle, r13.

That wouldn't explain why he didn't work again for 15 years, though, or why so many people who worked on the show have talked in interviews about all the things they did to work around his debilitating back pain.

This is just Dick talking about how beautiful Elizabeth was, and she was, he's not wrong. I'd bet almost every straight man she ever met felt the same way.

His making her feel uncomfortable may have been a final straw, but his pain and disability obviously got worse over time. He also was at the end of his five year contract, so it was easy for them not to renew.

Dick Sargent never really connected with co-stars regardless of gender. That may be why he always seemed to play ineffectual civil servants or junior military officers or else harried brothers of more charismatic characters. He just needed to play thwarted and/or frustrated, as he did on "Bewitched". In contrast. York was a talented, versatileactor who had done comedy, drama, Hollywood and Broadway. Between Sargent's weak acting and the downhill trajectory of the writing, the "New darrin" years became unwatchable.

I'll drink to that R3.

The man at R1 can barely form a sentence and looks like he's putting a fresh batch of shit into his Depends.

Not sure we can take him as a reliable source

Apparently r9. When it got hard it was so heavy it redistributed his weight and threw his back out.

I’ve since discovered they had one torrid edging session and they even filmed it. There’s a grainy old video circulating. She kept him on edge for a half hour until he finally came, when she aggressively palmed his massive knob until he almost broke the restraints in his agony.

It was this that caused her to banish him. She could feel herself sinking into a pit of debauchery with the aptly named Dick York and wanted him out of her life forever.

Apparently the video circulated in adult stores in the 70s, under the title “Dick’s too big”

In addition to the back pain, York had a serious pain killer addiction - missed many taping sessions.

He does sound creepy at OP (audio only). Him leaving was maybe a combo of creep factor and back pain.

The second Darren had no warmth. The 1st Darren was more convincing as a husband attracted to his wife.

A good interview with Bernie Kopell who talks about the series.

I had no idea Bernie Kopell was such a good storyteller. Imagine the stories he could tell!

Why didn't they hire Bernie to play Darren?

.........

Endora didn't call him DarWOOD for nothing.

Something tells me that Endora wasn't fond of straight mortal males but had more than her share of gay mortal male friends. Obviously one of them taught her fashion and how to do her makeup. She was probably the one who threw the first brick at Stonewall!

R28, I was also quite fond of "Darweed."

Dick York was a little too fond of Elizabeth but I think she basically just ignored it because it was manageable. In a book I have about Bewitched the author states that Dick missed 14 episodes of the 5th year of the series due to his health concerns and also took a week off when his mother died. They could see the writing on the wall and knew that they had to let him go - and did.
