Thank you for this lovely tribute to Agnes Moorehead

from

In this rare and fascinating photograph from around 1965, we see the legendary Agnes Moorehead in character as the unforgettable Endora.

Dressed in her signature flowing gown in shades of lilac and green, Moorehead radiates the charm, mystery, and wit that defined her portrayal of Samantha’s powerful and spirited mother.

Captured in a mirrored dressing room, the image quite literally reflects the magnetism of an actress at the peak of her career, and the visual impact of a character who would become a true television icon.

More than just a comedic antagonist, Endora was a force of nature—and Agnes brought her to life with brilliance, winning over audiences and securing her place in TV history.

This photo is a true gem for fans of the golden age of American television and a tribute to the genius of Agnes Moorehead, whose success as Endora continues to enchant generations to this day.

To all the Bay Watch Fans, which includes me, we say goodbye to darling Michael Newman.
He was the only cast member on the show who was actually a lifeguard. Having worked as a Los Angeles County lifeguard for 20 years, beginning at age 10 as a Santa Monica Junior Lifeguard.

Much love and comfort to his family.
