Am I the only one who always sensed this crazy sexual tension between Tony Nelson and MRS. BELLOWS?

I think there was more sexual tension between Tony & Roger. Otherwise, how else could you possibly explain Tony not being all over the most beautiful woman in the galaxy, Barbara Eden?

Am I the only one who always sensed this crazy sexual tension between Tony Nelson and MRS. BELLOWS?

Check it out for yourself... every time the two of them are in a scene together that actress starts this heavy vamp thing on the Major... totally undressing him like she's a Great Dane looking at a hanging side of beef! LOL It never fails!

Even as a kid watching the re-runs in the '70s I used to think, "Wow, the psychiatrist's wife totally has the HOTS for Tony!"... lol

And just today... watching a re-run on WGN I got the same feeling, only MORE creepy somehow now. [Although don't get me wrong... that lady was a mega MILF before the phrase was coined... ]

What was up with THAT???

Loved this show! Never jumped. Wish it was shown on cable now!

I loved this show! It was perfect from beginning to end, and never jumped!

I can suspend belief fairly well, and have enjoyed this show on occasion, but the hardest thing to swallow is that Tony Nelson never once tried to get into Jeannie's 'bottle'! Here she is, running around in a sexy harum outfit, offering herself to him on many occasions, and Nelson goes and hangs out with Roger Healy. Yeah right.
As far as fantasy shows, at least you knew that Samantha and Darrin were getting it on. ( Or at least Samantha and Darrin #1 were!)

I Dream of Jeannie was a great show and I only think it ended because every show has to end sometime, and the actors and everyone who worked on the show had to move on. It ended at the perfect time (unlike Bewitched which was LONG overdue). I mean it had a great, funny, plot and an amazing cast! A lot of people say that the show went downhill after the wedding, but I like those episodes (especially My sister, the Homewrecker and Mrs. Djinn Djinn)!

i dream of jeannie never jumped
i do think some were not very good
but in every season they had some that pretty good

I am happy that Jeannie and Tony got married. It would have been great to also see Major Healey tie the knot; he was so good with women! Their children would have been delightful. The ending was terrible...or, actually there was no real ending. Why not? We, and they, deserved better!

Everytime i watch this show i'm like, "HEy, look, it's JR Ewing" lol

Great series, great laughs.
There is a saying be very careful what
you wish for you just might get it.
Sometimes unlimited wealth and
power can be a dangerous trap, so
maybe that is why Major Nelson did
not use the powers that Jeannie had
to enrich himself to billions of
dollars

This show JTS's before the wedding. It started when Major Nelson (aka Master) decided he liked having Genie around, which was around season 4.

Remember that the whole theme of the show from the very beginning was that Major Nelson didn't want Genie around. He wanted a normal life, not one where he could wish anything he wanted. That was the brilliance of the show.

Because if he was a normal male, he would have wished for a billion dollars and the two of them would be screwing until his balls dropped off.

I don't think it ever jumped. During the fourth season they began to run out of ideas, and at the end of season 5 they wisely ended it. Contrast this with Bewitched, which continued on for 3 more painful seasons.

I didn't mind the wedding. I feel like they took the "Jeannie chases after Tony and gets jealous" angle as far as they could. It was getting old. And having Mr. and Mrs. Bellows know about Jeannie's existence opened up some new storylines. But really the show had run its course and it's best that they ended it.

Jumped for me when I realized what a great bit of truth this show really was.

I mean, if there really existed a genie, who just happened to be a smoking hot blonde, in a skimpy outfit that she was dying to get out of, and would call you 'master' while attempting to drag you off to her bed, not to mention miracling into existence anything from beer to riches...

Of course it'd be some gay man that found the bottle and not me. That's right I said it, no straight man could resist that.

So you have a genie, but you're worried about your boss the Colonel? Can't your genie just make you a General? Or, better yet, incredibly rich?

i would say the laugh inn eposode was one of the worst, i loved the one farrah fawcett was in were she was major healys date, right how could he get farrah.. the wedding killed the show --
