I DREAM OF JEANNIE
STORY
I dream of Jeannie is a comedy show about a genie living with
an american astronaut in Florida. The show started in 1965 and lasted until
1970. An american astronaut, Antony Nelson (Larry Hagman) was on a space
mission when due to an emergency he had to to land on a desert island in
the pacific. While waiting for help he discovered a bottle on the beach,
containing a genie named Jeannie (Barbara Eden). She told him that since
he had liberated her he was her master. Nelson took Jeannie back to his
home, at Cocoa Beach, Florida. He decided not to tell anyone about his
personal genie but his best friend, Roger Healey (Bill Daily). Because
she was so anxious to use her power of magic, she, Nelson and Healy were
involved in hilarious situations. Nelson and Healy were always trying to
explain to their superior, Colonel Dr. Bellows (Hayden Rorke), also the
base psychiatrist, a lot of strange things in their lives... That's basically
the show's story.
