The creator and head writer Sidney Sheldon said the network "panicked" when they realized they had bought the story of a half-naked woman living with a bachelor, but they stopped giving him notes once they saw the show and realized he "wasn't trying to get away with anything sexy."

One way they got away with it I think was by showing Jeannie's bottle as a separate set. It was made clear that she didn't live with Nelson, she lived inside the bottle, and that was enough for people in the 1960s who were too busy worrying about Vietnam and riots and stuff to protest about television.

Barbara Eden seems like she genuinely really loved her time on Jeannie, she deserves to know how hot she was and beloved the show is.

Black & White: Bewitched > I Dream of Jeannie
Color: I Dream of Jeannie > Bewitched

I don't know why, but that's how I remembers it.

There was a time when TV genuinely tried to offer what the audience wanted instead of "challenging" or "subversive" nepo baby projects.

My favorite thing about Sidney Sheldon (I haven't read any of his airport novels that he became known for after leaving TV) is that he started writing his "Jeannie" scripts under a series of fake names because he was embarrassed that his name was appearing so many times in the credits.

By never showing her belly button.

I think Dick II gets mis-blamed a bit. By the time Dick I left, they had already started remaking old episodes + other episodes that might just as well have been remakes.

There's one very early episode where Darrin falsely accuses Samantha of using magic to come up with advertising slogans, which they remade with Dick York and then remade again with Dick Sargent. Even by '60s standards that's A+ character regression.

The Barbie Movie should have been made in the 60s with Eden in the lead role.
