===Middle Career=== For her role as Mavis Parodus Bryson in the 1965 "The Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window" she received a Tony Award as "Best Featured Actress in a Play". <table><tr><td>She first appeared on the TV-series ''Bewitched'' as Samantha's maid "Naomi Hogan" on 6 Jan 1966 in "Maid to Order". This was episode 53 also called episode 17 in Season 2. You can watch the entire episode on YouTube, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_V1Pybt-JqQ Part 1], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzJVWW3lzyw Part 2], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5vDi_6XRuA&NR=1 Part 3]. Note the '''fascinating''' bit where Louise Tate's '''old''' maid is named... yes ... Esmerelda ! Alice had a small role as one of the greeters at the wedding in 1967's film ''The Graduate''. In her longest scene she stands next-to fellow-actress [[Marion Lorne]] who she would later replace on the TV-series ''Bewitched'', after Marion's death. Some have seen that as a bit...ghostley. You can watch the entire 48 second clip [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jj7SvZj2kOY here].</td><td> http://nycweboy.typepad.com/my_weblog/images/2007/09/22/ghostley_and_lorne.jpg Alice Ghostley and Marion Lorne in 1967's ''The Graduate''</td></tr></table> In 1967 Alice appeared in her first full-time TV series as "Mrs Nash" in NBC's new-series ''Captain Nice'' for that one season.
