Who Doesn't Dream of I Dream of Jeannie

Much has been made over the fact that Barbara Eden's costume from the series couldn't show her belly button, although it was shown in the later TV movies. But wasn't she still beautiful and even sexy in a clean kind of way? I mean if the show were to be made today, can you imagine what the costume would look like? For a few of us that remember the original, we may think the costume scandalous, but most wouldn't even blink en eye (pun intended). We've gotten so desensitized to what we see anymore that we have no boundary line between things that are public and private. Just food for thought.

1. Some famous guest stars Fararah Fawcett and Paul Lynde, who was also a regular on Bewitched.
2. Jeannie and her master were married in the fifth season.
3. Larry Hagman went on to Dallas fame.
4. Similarities with Bewitched:
a. Both starred beautiful blondes with supernatural powers.
b. Both were in love with mortal men who preferred they didn't use their powers. Their inevitable use of said powers created lots of diffi cult situations.
c. They both had to deal with nosy people who made keeping their secret hard - Bewitched had Mrs. Kravitz and IDOJ had the Dr. and Mrs. Bellows.
