'Bewitched' Creator Sol Saks Dies in LA at 100
LOS ANGELES – Friends and family say the writer who created the television comedy "Bewitched" has died. Sol Saks was 100.
Saks' wife Sandra says he died Saturday at Sherman Oaks Hospital in Los Angeles, where he was being treated for pneumonia.
Saks wrote the pilot script for "Bewitched," but he never wrote another episode of the ABC series about a witch married to a mortal. The show starring Elizabeth Montgomery ran from 1964 to 1972.
Longtime friend Paul Wayne told the Los Angeles Times that the pilot script earned Saks royalties for life.
