Even at that age, I'd still hit it.

Gently though, I wouldn't want to break anything.

Yeah but it was still recent enough that she probably hasn't changed much.

She made me feel like a man when I was just a boy.

Btw I loved IDOJ as a child and I still do now even though the show came out decades before I was born.

Look at her hands though. She probably had plastic surgery.

Ok, whatever.

She was the prettiest of all the TV babes over the years. She had that look in her eyes and smile that made you smile inside. The show had the best song as well.

The other TV 60s magical beauty was Elizabeth Montgomery.
The feminist loathed those two TV characters.

I agree, but you're talking about her in past tense and she's still alive, unless you're just talking about on the show that is.

As an opinionated, critical feminist, things in the media tend to make me want to puke. I Dream of Jeannie is no exception- how can any good come out of a TV show which features a half-dressed woman with magical powers who's existence is centered upon her "master." Regardless, the episode "My Turned-On Master" caught my attention the other day. I was pleasantly surprised with the messages of feminism which slipped their way into the show. The episode was about Jeannie giving her powers to Captain Nelson for 24 hours in order to attend a formal dinner with him. The trick is that he doesn't know he holds the power of magic for half the episode. While still unaware of his power, he talks about Jeannie being a silly girl who doesn't know enough to do anything meaningful or good with her power. He goes on to say that he would be able to make the entire world better with magic; he could end war, drought, ect. Then, when Jeannie breaks the news that he has her powers, he turns into a jerk. He tells her he will finally be able to save the world, and shoos her away. The best line occurs when Captain Nelson tells Jeannie to leave him to do "men's work" to which she replies, " "It was women's work when I was doing it." In the end, she laughs at his self-righteous and simple understanding of the problems of the world, and he ends up losing his magical abilities.
I really enjoyed the perspective of this episode. While men are viewed as more capable as political leaders than men by our culture, I Dream of Jeannie shows how a more feminine approach is a sign of intelligence and experience. Captain Nelson embodies the masculine attitude of "knowing it all" and "knowing what to do." Unfortunately, much of what is done with this attitude is harmful, and Jeannie explaines this to him. Jeannie, on the other hand, represents the feminine traits of thoughtfulness and patience. It is unfortunate that she cannot be more involved or interested in the "world problems" which Captain Nelson is concerned about, since her strong character could come up with realistic and sound solutions which he is far far away from.

Are you sure about that? From what I remember from Bewitched, she was smarter than her husband.

Yeah, but I also think that she's still beautiful now.

Never thought to put them together, but yes, they were easily the two most beautiful women on television in those days. The epitome of hotness overcoming the crazy.

Watching the first episode of IDoJ, jump started my puberty.

I'd still do a threesome with Barbara Eden and Deborah Harry.

yea, feminist probably want a dumb husband

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

The Feminist think that husbands can get their wives to call them "master." LMAO
That is as dumb as when Hillary said that she lost because Husbands told their wives how to vote. LMAO
