Dick York had a back injury because of another film he was filming at the time. You notice how he's very scarce in season five? He later got addicted to the pain medication and could not complete the rest of Bewitched so they had to replace him.

I just read from a "biography page" that Dick York retired from Bewitched due to a recurring back injury from a movie he was in years before.
