Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
Dick: Occasionally, I wonder about "Bewitched." But I guess we all wonder about something or other. Most working actors don't get a role where they become household faces. They may not know my name, I may be Darrin to people out there, but if people see you and smile at you and act like you're an old friend, I think that's a pretty swell accomplishment.
