Agnes Moorehead Interview (Endora on Bewitched)

Agnes passed away in 1974, and her mother was like 91 at the time. Mooreheads mother lived to be 106 when she passed in the early 1990's. Agnes was super talented.

we talk about her stage work and her movie and television roles. But she has the very rarest of credit lists. Moorehead was an incredibly versatile and prolific radio actor. She was once hailed as the first lady of suspense appearing in Calvacade of America, Suspense Theater, Mercury Group theater, Campbell Playhouse etc. Despite being a contract player under MGM, Agnes was unique in that she insisted on a clause allowing her to continue to work in radio. It all shows in her acting style with perfect diction, and one of the most expressive , passionate and revealing of vocal virtuosity in any media. Not many can do more with a line or monologue than Moorehead. Nobody is ever going to have that kind of versatility in experience

I was going to comment on her mid-Atlantic accent. It's not as pronounced in this interview as it was when she was working on Bewitched. The accent seems to disappear and reappear again throughout the interview, it's very very interesting. I'm absolutely fascinated with the mid-Atlantic accent, and often wear it myself. Kelsey Grammer was a master of mid-Atlantic English, and pulled it off brilliantly for over 20 years with his Frasier character. The pronunciation seems so formal and out of place in American culture these days, but I still think it's beautiful. There are still a handful of people today who talk like that - maybe from upbringing, or maybe from schooling, who knows. I don't care why they speak that way, I just love it.

What a sophisticated lady she was, besides being an extraordinary actress. Agnes Moorehead was so intelligent and one in a million. Thank you for sharing this interview. She seemed always intriguing to me and that, by itself, is so fascinating. A serious and consummate professional. There are no more Agnes Mooreheads in Hollywood, unfortunately.

I remember my fourth grade class had a field trip to Rockefeller Center NBC studios. We toured many facilities one of which was an active recording of a a production with Agnes Moorehead in it. We watched behind a sound proofed glass wall as she was being attended by make up artists. She sat there very regal as they did their work. I saw the production on NBC later that week.

She was an amazing woman. She talks here of her farm. I was today years old to find out about that. She had so much talent, and they barely scratched the surface of her depth of talent. If only she could have lived so much longer

[@ricj7517]

She's one of the best..Such a sweet lady

The One And Only; The Lovely Agnes Moorehead ♡♡♡

[@ArthurBrinkman-c5z]

She was in an episode of Alfred Hitchcock where she never said a single word. Everything was through her acting ability. It was fenominal! I'll watch anything that has her in it! The "stars" of today could learn alot from her! A total classy woman!

[@arhatyellow]

That was The Twilight Zone : The Invaders

WOWW I haven't seen her in an interview before, This was a Great Treat!! THANKYOU 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😊

I always loved Agnes Moorehead & felt she was so talented and so totally underrated for such a Talented Great Actress.

[@lalani888ARTblue]

Awesome Woman and absolutely stunning in her day. Truly unique.

[@lisalu910]

I've aways loved her name. "Agnes Moorehead" sounds as distinguished and theatrical as "Ethel Barrymore."

[@tomjones2348]

The people for the set of Bewitched said what you see is what you get with Agnes. Great interview. Thanks for sharing this.

[@scottmiller6495]

What a wonderful entertainer she was and pure class !!!!!

[@jacquelinelangworthysmith8589]

She was wonderful in everything I saw her in. Loved her in Bewitched. Grateful that she would do that show with her extensive background.

[@jamesrichey2434]

Her farm was in my neck of the woods! Athens, Ohio, or somewhere close to it :) that's nice to know, cause she was my favorite character of this series :)

[@Hamigal]

Her farm was between Cumberland and New Concord I believe

[@Smarteagle2008]

I always think she was the best in bewitched . amazing lady! Very classy very talented. Thank you!

Jerry Stephens could be🤔👍🏻

This aired in 1973. Sadly, she passed away the following year. 😓

A farmer was once asked what he would do if he had a million dollars. He said, Keep farming and when its gone I still be farming.

[@kojikicklighter371]

Agnes reminds me of my grandmother, who inherited the farm after her husband died. She and her son ran it. She continued with a 2-acre garden until her '90s. And she'd walk around the house in a bright flowy day dress.

[@LALoft]

Known by my generation for her role as Endora of Bewitched, Agnes Moorhead had a very long, amazing career.

[@ResidentOfTheAbyss]

Agnes Moorhead was born in 1900 and was in her late 60’s when this interview was done. She talks about her parents, I’m just guessing they must have been born in the 1870’s

[@seththomas9105]

I did not realize she was that old at the time of this interview, she seemed much younger.

[@allme2547]

@@seththomas9105 her demeanor has a lot to do with that. She smiles and laughs a lot... which I think makes people look and feel younger.

[@hcombs0104]

Her mother died in 1990, so she was born in 1884?

[@reedsburghistory4679]

@@hcombs0104 Molly was born in 1883 which made her 106 when she died. She moved back to Reedsburg after her husband died in 1938. They lived here for 5 years while he had the Presbyterian church. Agnes came to visit her a couple times a year as did others (not as often) such as Debbie Reynolds and Cesar Romero. Agnes dedicated our new city hall in 1971. Agnes tried to get here every Christmas to read the Christmas story in her father's former church. Molly was also a great singer.

[@normacotter3377]

Every show she has ever done has been absolutely wonderful. YES even in Bewitched

[@daingermouz2077]

I've always loved Endora. I could listen to her talk for hours. I was a big Bewitched fan back in the day. I was recently surprised to learn that at the time I started watching Bewitched Agnes Morehead was already deceased. I think the lady that first played the original Mrs.Kravitz and Aunt Clara were also dead as well.

[@Chillmax]

Aha, that's where she probably gets that wonderful grandness, English/ Irish parents, makes a lot of sense, I adored her even as a small child. Thanks for this lovely, if rather agricultural interview x

[@billyboyblue1539]

Absolutely wonderful actress and person!!- wish I could have known this woman!

[@mariocisneros911]

She was such a good ACTRESS in that she seemed so natural in ALL her parts , movies and on the radio. She acted on So many dramatic radio shows

[@peppers8489]

What a charming and interesting lady she was. On of the best and most underrated actresses ever.

[@williamschmeelk3378]

Wish there was more discussion about her work on Citizen Kane and on the Twilight Zone. She is most talented actress. I remember seeing her on an episode of The Rifleman. She always seems to play a completely different character - and I guess that's what makes her a good actress.

[@Nunofurdambiznez]

Good actress = wrong.. incredibly great actress = correct.

[@barbarakennedy2330]

She was truly a lovely lady in every sense of the word!

Agnes Moorehead was highly educated and highly respected and had a great life!
