DVD Reviews of I Dream Of Jeannie - The Complete Second SeasonDVD Review: I dream of a blast from the past Jeannie Summary: 3 StarsThis was a great show. If you've seen one, you'll have to see them all. In this season Jeannie is seen more in the garb of the times and less in her traditional Jeannie outfit. You also get to meet her sister (Jeannie with dark hair) four times during the season. There are one or two episodes that leave you with a "what were they thinking?" But overall the show is a great collection to own. I bought it to introduce my son to some of the shows I watched as a kid and he seemed to like this show quite a bit (even more than "Get Smart" and "Bewitched").
Although, I should warn you: My son (8) loaded it on his iPod and watched an episode on the school bus. One of the children complained to their parents he was watching an inappropriate show on his iPod with naked women. As a result I had to speak to the parents and assure the school he had nothing of the sort on his iPod. My how times have changed... but then again, maybe not.
DVD Review: Love it. Summary: 4 StarsI love these DVD's I got the color version and really like it. The color is very good and not distracting. I don't like watching black and white so I enjoyed it with the color.
DVD Review: Highly recommended... Summary: 5 StarsPicture and sound (even though a 2-channel mono) are simply amazing.
It's as if I were viewing it for the first time.
Sony says it all. They have proven it so many times by now, it is almost useless to repeat it.
This is how DVDs of old movies and TV shows should be cleaned up and presented to a demanding audience.
It really should be imposed as the standard in DVD production.
Just look at the "Ultimate Bond Collection" and you will see what I mean.
When SONY gets at producing something they really work at the material and they probably sweat over it too, 'cause the results are simply unique.
Even Criterion could take them as an example (and I am now referring to their unfortunate "Last Emperor" DVD release, which is simply not worth buying).
I hope SONY will take care of many more movies in the future and never allow their standard to drop.
DVD Review: Second season of Jeannie even more fun! Summary: 5 StarsIf you grew up watching Jeannie, you'll love having the entire set on DVD. I can finally see all the episodes in order, with no cuts in the scenes to fit all the commercials in.
If you've never seen this show, I definitely reccomend it. Major Tony Nelson of NASA lands on a beach by accident and finds a bottle with a beautiful 'Jeannie' in it. Jeannie falls in love with him (and he with her,though he won't admit until much later), and in each episode unintentionally wreaks havoc on his well-ordered life, by trying to help. Played to ditzy,lovable perfection by the gorgeous Barbara Eden,with Larry Hagman of 'J.R Ewing' fame as Tony. It's fun to see Hagman in a character so completely different from J.R. The supporting roles of Major Healy, Doctor Bellows and his wife, and the others are all really well done,too.
DVD Review: A Wonderful Show Summary: 5 StarsThe premise for this show is fun and entertaining, and I just can't take my eyes off Barbara Eden! All the shows are just great.

The bottle is uncorked on another season of everyone s favorite genie!System Requirements:Running Time 553 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating:?NR UPC:?043396147751 Manufacturer No:?14775 Jeannie (Barbara Eden) is even more fetching in color in the second season of one of TV's most charming and endearing fantasies. Jeannie's navel is still not ready for prime time, and her live-in relationship with astronaut Tony Nelson (Larry Hagman), the man who freed her from that bottle, is still strictly platonic. But, like any wife, she is upset when Tony forgets their one-year anniversary in the season opener. And when Tony unwittingly frees the Blue Djinn, who originally imprisoned Jeannie, it looks like he won't survive year two. Naturally, being stuck in a bottle for 2,000 years, the vivacious and playful Jeannie is more innocent and naive than her bewitching counterpart, Samantha Stevens. Her well-intentioned magic complicates Tony's life in such episodes as "My Master, the Rich Tycoon," "My Master, the Rainmaker" and "My Master, the Spy." She transforms Tony into an operatic virtuoso in "My Master, the Great Caruso," landing him in a talent show, and leading to perhaps the most versatile lip-syncing scene since the Stooges sang the sextet from Lucia in Micro-Phonies. Jeannie blinks Tony back into the Old West in "Fastest Gun in the East," on Captain Kidd's ship in "My Master, the Pirate," and back to Napoleon's court in "My Master, Napoleon's Buddy." No wonder that in "There Goes the Best Genie I Ever Had," he considers taking advantage of Hajii Day and sending her back. Not that there aren't advantages to having a genie around the house. In one episode, she anticipates TiVo by freezing the action on a televised football game while she and Tony go out. In "The Greatest Invention in the World," she fulfills Tony's best friend Roger's (Bill Daily) childhood wish to be the funniest man in the world by turning him into the one and only Groucho Marx. And when Tony is put in charge of providing entertainment for General Peterson's anniversary party, Jeannie summons "The Greatest Entertainer in the World," Sammy Davis Jr. (at his konk-ch-konk best). The season's most captivating story arc begins in the two-parter "The Girl Who Never Had a Birthday," as Tony and Roger resolve to determine Jeannie's birthday (the date is finally revealed in "Caruso"). Through it all, poor base psychiatrist Dr. Bellows (Hayden Rorke) is constantly confounded, Mrs. Kravitz-style, by the unexplained supernatural behavior to which he is witness. I Dream of Jeannie is far from PC, but in the realm of TV's guilty pleasures, it is master of its domain. --Donald Liebenson
