Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered: Facts We Never Knew About Your Favorite Old School TV Show

Witch Doctor

On a show chock full of zany characters, one notably zany one is Dr. Bombay. In line with the wacky logic of Bewitched, the physician who treated the magical family’s ailments was no other than a–you guessed it–witch doctor. With special effects and elaborate costumes, Dr. Bombay made quite a scene.

Bernard Fox was the actor who portrayed the witch doctor. Sporting his famous moustache, he is most famous for his Bewitched character, but also for appearances in other TV and film, such as the Andy Griffith Show and Titanic. His character of Dr. Bombay didn’t come to a close when Bewitched ended. He also appeared on the spin-off series, Tabitha.
