Mini bio about the life of actor Dick York who played the role of Darren Stephens on the 1960's classic sitcom "Bewitched". Jim Carrey is not related to Dick York.

[@dhtisme7034]

Dick York was the best Darrin Stevens. Hard to watch after he was replaced. His comedy, his facial features were unmatchable.

[@actuary33]

RIP Derwood

His eyes 👀

[@johnhurley4700]

Jim Carrey woulda been a good Darren he shoulda made the Bewitched movie with a better story than the one they had.

[@jocelynlapo4849]

Dick York's ending was not as sad as people think. He did spend his last years in poverty, but had a loving wife and circle of friends. Despite his debilitating emphysema, he spent his last years coordinating the delivery of food that was near expiration date from grocery stores to places that served food to the needy. He was a loving and caring person who, despite his poor health and poverty, still managed to serve the less fortunate.

[@marykayd2781]

That is VERY sad

[@dianehumbarger5089]

The original Derwood, Dick York

[@philiphatfield5666]

Not. one. single. person. in. Hollywood. did. one. single. thing. for. Dick. York! Elizabeth Montgomery can rot in hell for that!

[@kennethwofford4489]

His care and help for the less fortunate was unequalled. A great actor and a beautiful person!

[@robertbarr6954]

Today actors need to take note from dick York

[@CamperKev]

I preferred Dick York as Darren Stephens. I think most people would agree.

[@JonMacintosh-eh3rt]

I think he was the better Darrin also but I liked Dick Sargent also. I was glad he had a different take on the part and didn't try to copy Dick Yorks mannerisms. I get tired of people doggin on Sargent.

[@moorlock2003]

That is an easy choice.

[@kristinwalz8878]

Well--it was much more believable--tha love story between the first dick and Elizabeth...

[@chrispage2782]

you “think most people would agree,” eh? Most people?

[@mantis10_surf85]

They were both great Dick’s. Both Dick’s were very tall standing erect. However, Dick Sargent loved Dick a lot more 🤷‍♂️

[@blipco5]

I’m pretty sure that everyone who met Elizabeth Montgomery fell in love with her.

[@mr.objective6936]

She was smokin hot

[@jayedwards4787]

You gotta be kidding - the woman had zero sex appeal…none …cardboard cut out …

[@addamr2052]

I was in love with the pretty Elizabeth Montgomery and I was only a kid .

The show wasn’t the same without him! RIP Mr. York always a fan! 🌟🙏🏼❤️

[@stellakowalski1]

R.I.P. dear Dick, by far the best Derwood, um, Darwin, eh, Darren, BEWITCHED ever had!♥️😘

[@jenellecollis8938]

I hope Dick York became a Christian 🙏❤️🌹

[@Dragonfly657]

[@marlenepearson3936]

Dick York was definitely the best Darrin. Such a shame what happened with his back 😞 😢 I love how he tried to help others so much. Especially at the end of his life. ❤

[@johnhoran9840]

In my opinion, there was really only ONE Darren, and that's Dick York.

[@earnold1896]

​@@johnhoran9840... I guess because people get used to whoever is first and longest in a role. He was good though.

[@aldoovelar5567]

I agree with everyone. Dick York for ever. Dick Sergeant was a good actor too, but York was iconic.

[@DDHaven.]

He was brilliant as Darren. The show suffered without him. So sad that he had to live with crippling pain. We miss you here on planet earth Dick.🩷🩷🩷

[@barrymay8269]

Dick York was the best Darren in Bewitched. Great facial expressions !!!!

[@sarge1064]

I agree about the best facial expressions.

[@doloresdelgreco8500]

The original Darrin !!!

[@user-wp4ju4hp5w]

We here in Australia would describe Elizabeth Montgomery as Drop Dead Gorgeous

[@michaelschramm1064]

I think pretty much the entire western hemisphere did.

[@carlglidden3374]

She was an elegant beauty.

[@chitownuser22]

My favorite actor who played Darren Stevens was Dick York. ❤

[@nancyanderson5310]

No need to fret hierarchy issues, the man you just told me about sounds like a real trooper and a fine man. Not cut out to be a landlord, maybe, but clearly a fully qualified human being. In these horrendous times, he blesses my soul. Thank you so much for a courteous, clear, portrait of a nice person.

[@marilynharris319]

What a fantastic show. As a little girl I used to try and twitch my nose in the mirror and do magic. Dick York was irreplaceable. You could tell he was a sweet soul just by that dear sweet face.😊

[@sarge1064]

Dick York was by far the BEST Darrin!! So sad on his life in later years! Bless his heart❤ May he rest in peace and gets to see Elizabeth Montgomery 😢

[@lislortega2610]

Dick York was Darren & always will be. Rest Peacefully, Sir❤

[@robertharrison5856]

Born in the 60's, I watched Bewitched when I was just a young kid. It was one of my favorite shows to watch back then. My favorite actor in the show was always Elizabeth, she was amazing, but Dick York was a close second. He had the best facial impressions ever! I really enjoyed watching the episodes with York. R.I.P. Dick York, one of the greats!!

[@tonybritten2447]

Here in my city Adelaide South Australia a local radio station would ring Dick every year to hear how he was going although he was suffering he was always upbeat RIP Dick your not forgotten 😢

[@taliehughes4341]

I’m in Adelaide too 🎉

[@louiserowland9940]

So am I. I live near Adelaide.

From Mississippi & have bn blessed to have visited Australia some 15 yrs ago. Super friendly people & gorgeous scenery (Sydney & Blue Mtns is where I visited).

[@paulclough8759]

Dick York without question he was the man a legend ❤️💕🙏

[@centralcoastqueenofswing]

Dick York was my fave. There was a gentleness and innocense in his eyes and his comedy timing and expressions were just perfect!

[@Fourthorseman68]

Dick York, a good actor and it is such a shame about that tragic accident, he brought so much joy to so many. How his days ended was so sad.

[@cathischoll7989]

York was by far the best!!

[@jasontroy4723]

As a 70s kid i truly enjoyed bewitched after school along with Mr ED , the goodies , Dr Who etc etc . Dick york was my favourite Darren .

[@margemiller5503]

Dick York was the best. He had the best gyrations and facial expressions. Nothing against Mr. Sargent, I've seen him in many things too, but no one could beat Mr. York as Darrin. He was great.

[@Thenogomogo-zo3un]

Sargent really had a difficult task and shoes to fill. He did a really good job considering all he had going against him. He really reminds me of Jack Lemmon

[@theicecavalier342]

No surprise he loved Elizabeth, she was a very beautiful person.

[@johnhurley4700]

I think she married Asher to get back at her daddy.

[@JohnDavis-tt5mq]

Beautiful. Yes . I also watched. Teenage crush etc. Good person ? Affairs ruined a couple marriages. Product of Hollypedoville

[@Thenogomogo-zo3un]

Anyone who has to act with an on-screen partner, husband and wife, girlfriend boyfriend, especially on a series it's very difficult not to 'develop' a relationship and feelings for your co-star. One of those things that makes relationships and marriages very fragile in that industry.

[@annahorn9352]

Dick York was the real Darren Steven in my eyes. I had a little crush on him as 5 year old girl. I did not understand when they changed actors. Before that time, I thought the Steven's were a real family. The change, ironically broke the magic that was present in the relationship between Darren and Samantha. Rest in Peace Dick York

[@vivnoname]

Dick York was my favourite Darren. I loved his goofy facial expressions.

[@bethhart7033]

Yowza! Loved him on Bewitched! And I remember him being on the Twilight Zone. Thank you for sharing this story I always wondered what happened to him.

[@cheribee968]

There was a very genuine acting chemistry between Dick York and EM. They were so convincing as a loving newlywed couple He had a lot of chemistry with the other actors The cast was great

[@earnold1896]

Same in the Dick Van Dyke show, chemistry.

[@amymascara8864]

He was an excellent actor. I have watched bewitched reruns over and over because the acting was so good.

[@ritacable6159]

I pray he rests in peace. Watching him on Bewitched brought a lot of joy to my childhood.

[@jeffyoung8726]

I've been asked this so many times I can't even count? But for me it will always be York, "sorry Dick Sargent!"

[@sparkles8344]

I agree I liked him better too.

[@joannefairclough7960]

Dick York was my absolute favourite Darren. Handsome, with great comic timing and obviously, from this interesting and well researched piece, also with a big heart. I am so sorry his last years were blighted by illness and financial difficulty.

[@johammond9359]

Sooo sad😢. I did hear about why he left the show, but only a few years ago. I wondered why he left and took me time to get used to a new Darren. I loved the show. Thanks for doing this video and telling about his life and career.

Anyway, nothing against Dick Sargent but ugh I hated his Darrin character on Bewitched. Anyway, RIP poor Dick York and his TV wife who died as young as him. 😢

[@donnagriffin460]

One of my favorite retro sit-coms! So cleverly written and acted …. York was my fav Darrin/Dustin/Derwood - Sargeant gave a valiant effort but he was a little stiff for the role …. So sad to lose EM at such a young age … but she’ll forever be Samantha Stevens in everyone’s hearts 💞 💫 🧹

[@jacquelynkirby1442]

I loved Bewitched! Dick York and Elizabeth Montgomery! Yes

[@Whatt787]

Cigarettes killed him, and his back injury in 1959 ruined his life

[@journeyquest1]

She was a chain smoker too and that killed her also.

[@bufnyfan1]

Dick York ultimately became debilitated from both his back issues and chronic emphysema. He lived in a trailer in Michigan and used all the connections he made while an actor in Hollywood to help raise money for the homeless. Mr. York grew up very poor and knew first hand what it was like to struggle to survive

[@kimleone5496]

He was also pretty good before Bewitched. He's in one of my favorite Twilight zone episodes. He was very talented

[@christorrence1114]

I fell in love with her every episode; the man had good taste.

[@Unknown17]

I used to laugh so hard whenever I heard, "Abner! ABNER! There's something funny going on at the Stevens house again!" I always hoped Uncle Arthur, Paul Lynde, would appear. He was so zany and offbeat. Just hilarious! P.S.: Montgomery in the role of Serena was hot as a pistol!
