Just before he recently departed ABC Studios to embark on a rich overall deal at Netflix, Black-ish creator Kenya Barris sold one last high-profile project to ABC: Bewitched, a single camera, interracial blended family comedy based on the popular 1960s sitcom of the same name. It took a little while for all the deals to close, but the network has given a pilot production commitment to the new take on the classic supernatural sitcom, from Barris and Black-ish writer/producer Yamara Taylor. The project hails from ABC Studios; Sony Pictures TV, which has the rights to the title; and Sony-based Davis Entertainment (The Blacklist).

I know, but that’s exactly the way I remember the original series. Why couldn’t they see how evil Smith was. He always managed to skirt by.
No new ideas.
Might as well watch the old one with the good Darrin.
Honestly so far [3 episodes in] that has been a pretty decent show. I’m suprised. Great visuals.
The original was campy as heck.
Meh.
Honestly how many people under 37 even watched the original? Revising history may be a bit strong.
If it sucks it will be as forgotton as that Ghostbusters reboot.

And it makes the white folks look like retrograde idiots, despite reality.
It won’t get past the pilot I bet.
They are doing all of this for each other. Maybe NFL players will watch. :)
who played the role best?
Dick Sargent?
Dick York?
or Sergeant York?
The first “Darren” was not gay.
well the cast, directors, producers, and writers should all have inter-racial spouses IRL as well (In Real Life).
Otherwise it is appropriation and exploitation.
Weren’t the neighbors on “The Jefferson’s” TV’s first interracial couple?
Probably because he was more annoying.
If "crazy idiot exasperated husband" was the role, he played it better.
Dick Sargent was smoother but blander.
Why not a LBGTWXYZwhatever family?
What about two giant breasts living together?
No, wait, howz about a belly button (fuzzy one) and a straight belly button as the witch?
Hollywood is about as creative as the Dimbulbcrat Party.
Oh, forgot......
I agree
Hey look! More cultural appropriation from the a**holes who always complain about cultural appropriation!
And gayer.
I quit the Netflix Lost in Space about 5 minutes into the first episode. Then I read various comments in similar threads, so I went back and watched the entire series.
It was actually pretty good.
I never cared for the show at all.
The Jeffersons was a good sitcom.
