It Had To Pause For Historic Events
Even while Bewitched wasn’t precisely Meet the Press, politics had an impact on its eight-year existence. The show not only aired at the time of Martin Luther King’s death, but it also began production on the same day. The 1968 episode “I Confess” had to be postponed due to the breaking news of the civil rights activist’s death.
It Made Her Lots Of Money
Despite the fact that she may not have had much enthusiasm for the show near the end, Montgomery benefitted for a long time after it was canceled. Because she had a 20% stake in the production, the actress gained millions via syndication. Everything added up. Montgomery’s net worth was estimated to be $40 million at the time of her death in 1995.
