How many times can Timmy fall in a well anyhow?

In 2005, Nicole Kidman and Will Farrell attempted to recreate the magic of "Bewitched." Unfortunately with a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 28%, the magic fizzled out. Many site the writing and untapped talent as the cause of this movie's flopping.

While many know that Dick Van Dyke is an amazing television actor, however he is a lot more than that.

He's also been on a couple of Disney films like "Mary Poppins" and "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang."

While you may not know who Bamboo Harvester is, you'll probably recognize the role he played: Mr. Ed. When it came to talking, Bamboo had first been trained with a nylon string in his mouth.

The bond between the two was so great that Bamboo wouldn't perform unless Hilton was on set.

Charles Addams (the creator of "The Addams Family") had many fans, one of which was legendary director Alfred Hitchcock. The Bates Motel, featured in the classic "Psycho" was modeled after the Victorian mansion where the Addams family lived.

Interesting fact: Harriet Nelson is the grandmother of Matthew and Gunnar Nelson, known by many as the 1980s band Nelson.

After "Leave it to Beaver" had its final airing, Barbara Billingsley reprised the role of June Cleaver in five different television shows.

What does "Get Smart" and "Blazing Saddles" have in common? Both were created by Mel Brooks, who's a triple threat!

Daughter of legendary producer Danny Thomas, it would seem that becoming a star would become natural for Marlo Thomas. It was true, however after "That Girl," Marlo had a bit of a struggle getting out from under the shadow of Anne Marie and did what many actors do: play something the opposite of what she was known for. After "Jenny" was released in 1970, her fans weren't too impressed and she eventually decided to lay low for a while. By the late '70s her audience had more time to mature and they welcomed her back with open arms.

Playing George Wilson on "Dennis the Menace" was Joseph Kearns's last role. Other shows he was featured on included, "Gunsmoke," "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet," and "The Jack Benny Show."

Fred Rogers, the creator of the children's television show "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood" was known for his quiet and subtle ways of incorporating themes into television.

Although Adam West performed as Batman for the entire run of "Batman," there were two amazing ladies who played Catwoman: Broadway star Julie Newmar and Eartha Kitt, a dancer and activist.

After performing in Disney's "The Absent-Minded Professor" and "Son of Flubber," Fred MacMurray was approached by the producers of "My Three Sons" to star. However, they got more than they bargained for when it came to signing contracts. MacMurray's demands included 65 days of work per season and every scene that he was to be featured in would be shot first. Because the show was often shot out of order, there were continuity issues in the show.

After her work ended on "Hazel," Whitney Blake, who played Dorothy Baxter, worked sporadically onscreen, making cameos on "Gunsmoke," "Ironside," "Hunter," and "Love, American Style." However, it wasn't because there wasn't an availability of parts: she was working behind the screen: she was the creator behind "One Day at a Time."

"Please Don't Eat the Daisies" was a sitcom based off of a book and film by the same name.

Walter Brennan, who played Grandpa Amos McCoy on "The Real McCoys" led an interesting life.

Danny Thomas, who portrayed Danny Williams on "Make Room for Daddy," was a powerhouse when it came to producing comedies. Some of the shows he produced included "The Dick Van Dyke Show," "Mod Squad," and "The Guns of Will Sonnett." The Thomas family talent doesn't stop there: Marlo Thomas (star of "That Girl") is his daughter.

Even though it is set in the post Civil War era, "F Troop" had something going on that many shows didn't. Instead of having a doting housewife with the kids as their female lead, Wrangler Jane Angelica Thrift was an entrepreneur, amazing shot, and a gal who went for what she wanted. This was somewhat common in the genre: Agent 99 from "Get Smart" was a far superior agent to her male counterpart, Maxwell Smart.

Sometimes when a show is created, the co-stars get to be a little more successful than the lead of the series. This is definitely true in the case of "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis."

And it actually won a 2008 TV Land Award for Awesomest Robot.

Hope Lange, who portrayed the enchanting Carolyn Muir on "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir," won two Emmy awards for Outstanding Continued Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Comedy Series during the show's run. However, once the show finished production, she never really achieved the status she had with this quaint show about a widow and ghost falling in love. She had several roles in both films and television, with one of her more noted performances being that of Charles Bronson's wife in "Death Wish."

Natalie and Martin Lane were the supportive and loving parents of Patty Lane and doting aunt and uncle on Cathy Lane on "The Patty Duke Show." While many teen comedies of the time would have the parental figures of a family float in and out, the Lanes were in almost every episode (Martin was only in 104 of 105 shows).

During its six season run, "Dark Shadows" became a cult classic, with a remake of the series appearing in 1991 and a full-length feature film in 2012, with Johnny Depp playing the morose Barnabas Collins.

Even thought it only ran for one season, "My World and Welcome to It" won two primetime Emmys for Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Continued Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Comedy Series and it was nominated for four additional awards.

John McIntire, the actor behind Clay Grainger on "The Virginian," was a natural when it came to acting like a cowboy: he was raised in Montana, where he learned to raise broncos on his family's farmstead.

While it was never 100% established, Cinnamon Carter and Rollin Hand had a bit of a romance. At the end or the third season of "Mission Impossible," both Hand and Carter left because it was rumored that the IMF looked down on married agents. Portrayed by real life couple Barbara Bain and Marin Landau, the chemistry was real between these characters.

After "Gidget," Sally Field exploded on the scene. She has several appearances on television including "The Flying Nun," "The Girl with Something Extra," and "ER." More notably is her work on the big screen: in 1979, Field won an Academy Award for her performance in the drama "Norma Rae."

Rachel Ames, who portrayed Audrey March, R.N., on "General Hospital" has the distinction of being the longest running performer on the longest running soap. Her debut took place in 1964, when "General Hospital" was only a year old.

Six different actresses have played the troubled Victoria Lord on "One Life to Live." This television character lived a pretty long life: she was one of the original cast members in 1968 and had exited in 2012, right after the series got cancelled from network television.
