Endora

Endora is a fictional character from the American television sitcom Bewitched. She is the mother of Samantha Stephens, the show's protagonist, and a powerful witch. Endora frequently visits her daughter and son-in-law, Darrin Stephens, often meddling in their mortal affairs with her magical abilities. Her primary motivation is her disdain for Darrin and her belief that witches should not be married to mortals.

Agnes Moorehead portrayed Endora for most of the series' run, earning multiple Emmy Award nominations for her performance. Endora's character is known for her flamboyant costumes, distinctive voice, and her penchant for transforming Darrin or creating magical chaos to disrupt his life or express her disapproval. Despite her antagonistic role towards Darrin, she often shows a degree of affection for her daughter Samantha and occasionally her grandchildren. Her magical interventions are typically comedic and serve to highlight the contrast between the magical and mortal worlds depicted in the show. Endora's presence was a consistent element throughout all eight seasons of Bewitched, making her one of the most recognizable and memorable characters in the series.
