Upstairs At The Stephens

Samantha walks into her bedroom at the end of the hall
In this long shot you can see the bedroom entrance is only a small holding place for actors.

For entrances from the other bedroom, the small holding space for the actors can be seen in this part of the set. 

In Season 7 and 8, Sam and Darrins bedroom set doubled as Tabitha's bedroom. They would redecorate, and a wall would hide the fireplace.

The "Bewitched" Kitchen Set Reused on "The Paul Lynde Show"


In September 1972 "The Paul Lynde Show" premiered.  It utilized a lot of parts from the set of "Bewitched" which had been cancelled months before. It was filmed at the same studio with the same producer. 

They used most of the parts of the kitchen including the refrigerator and stove, the staircase, and the pots and pans. But they also used the dining room hutch, and outdoor furniture and the fence.
