I Dream of Jeannie (Dell)

™ and ©1965 Dell Publishing Co.

Before Larry Hagman was evil J.R. Ewing on Dallas, he played Major Tony Nelson in this harmless sitcom about an astronaut who discovers a bottle containing a genie portrayed by the exotically beautiful Barbara Eden. Hagman’s buddy Major Roger Healey (portrayed by Bill Daily) is eventually educated on the discovery and for the rest of the series they try to keep the secret hidden from their superior Dr. Bellows, causing chaos when Jeannie innocently tries to clean up the messes she has inadvertently started. The show aired from 1965-1970 on NBC.
