I think the entire original cast died. The first Darrin died while the show was still in production. Excepting the daughter, She is still living, I think.

I remembered Dick York (Darrin) first from his role as the evolutionist schoolteacher in 'Inherit The Wind' (1960) with Spencer Tracy, Gene Kelly and Frederic March. :thumbup: Actually, he was in 'The Last Hurrah' (1958) with Tracy, also...but only a very small role in a political TV ad.

Good clean humor. To bad we don't have that much any more. Those comedians could think on their feet and come back with answers so fast it would make your head swim.
