I Dream of Jeannie: The Complete Series, starring Barbara Eden and Larry Hagman, in one of the most beloved sitcoms in television history, comes to DVD in collectible bottle packaging from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.
This collector’s set also includes episode cards with trivia from each season. The 20-disc box set features the romantic magic of all 139 episodes and will be available for $174.95 SRP.
Barbara Eden (TV’s “Harper Valley PTA”) starred in her career-defining title role with Hagman (TV’s “Dallas”), who played the hapless Major Tony Nelson. The heady chemistry and deft comic timing of the adorably mismatched couple was made even more successful by series’ talented regulars Bill Daily (TV’s “The Bob Newhart Show”) as Tony’s best friend and secret-keeper, Major Roger Healey; Hayden Rorke (“The Unsinkable Molly Brown”) as nosey Dr. Bellows; and Emmaline Henry (“Rosemary’s Baby”) as his wife, Amanda Bellows.
Inspired by other supernatural shows of the time, particularly “Bewitched” (made recently into a bad movie by Nra Ephron), “I Dream of Jeannie” began its five-season run on September 18, 1965. Created by best-selling author Sidney Sheldon, the series cleverly blended romantic and slapstick comedy with outstanding special effects, making it an immediate success.
“I Dream of Jeannie” enjoyed renewed popularity when it went into syndication during the 1970s; and, to this day, Eden and Hagman’s good-natured, high-spirited antics continue to attract new generations of fans.
