By its third season, the daffy 1960s sitcom I Dream of Jeannie just got sillier--which is not necessarily a bad thing. Given that the show's premise involves a half-naked woman subservient to an astronaut, we're clearly watching a rampant male fantasy to begin with; it's the goofiness (ably executed by the stars) that gives the show charm instead of smarm.So bring on the evil twin sister, Jeannie 2; the Hawaiian royalty; guest appearances by Don Rickles, Paul Lynde, and Milton Berle; an epic (for a sitcom) four-episode story about Jeannie being trapped in a safe that's about to be sent to the moon; the groovy rock band (in an episode featuring record producer Phil Spector, later to become a gun-toting recluse, as himself)...it's all turned into a delirious soup of 1960s farce by Barbara Eden (who perfected the combination of sexy/ditzy long before Jenna Elfman or Jessica Simpson), Larry Hagman (one of the nicest guys on TV until he became ubervillian JR Ewing on Dallas), Bill Daily (among the greatest second bananas of all time), Hayden Rorke (the perpetually stymied Dr. Bellows), and Emmaline Henry (Mrs. Bellows, a hip and sexy older woman in the decade that launched the idolization of youth). I Dream of Jeannie scrupulously avoided political or social relevance--when Mrs. Bellows thinks that Jeannie is a young woman enslaved by Major Nelson and tries to rescue her, this troubling idea is played for laughs--but that puts the show in an engaging bubble of entertainment, as out-of-synch with its own era as much as with ours. --Bret Fetzer

- A Fun Watch
I Dream of Jeannie is a very fun watch, especially this season. It was very entertaining with some good plots. I felt though that the order of the episodes made no sense. I have a gripe with two episodes: Here Comes Bootsie Nightingale and Jeannie Goes to Honolulu. Here Comes Bootsie Nightingale was OK, but the actress could have been WAY better. The thing I really don't like is that the picture seems to be bouncing from 12:00-16:00. This is very irritating. Jeannie Goes to Honolulu must be the WORST ... Read More

- I love Jeannie
I just love this series.It takes me back to my childhood, when I Dream of Jeannie was my favorite show, and I literally did dream of being Jeannie as a little girl!Thanks for getting this series in color and on DVD format!I am the proud owner of all five seasons, some of them purchased through Amazon, because it had the best price.
Rating: - Great Comedy
Not much I can say that other reviewers have not covered (such as episode lists etc). Episodes are crystal clear and look better on these DVDs than they did when originally aired (yes I saw the original airs). Light hearted comedy with a lot of nonsense that allows me to escape the harsh realities of life from time to time.Your kids and grandkids can watch these.
Rating: - classic TV
I grew up watching these shows. Own every season and now my children watch them too. Good classic tv without all the sex and violence. Perfect.
Rating: - Brings back good memories!
I used to follow this program as a kid. I am glad to view the memories again!
