DVD Reviews of I Dream of Jeannie - The Complete Fifth SeasonDVD Review: Season Five of I Dream of Jeannie!! Summary: 5 StarsSeason Five is the best season of them yet! I purchased it primarily to complete my I Dream of Jeannie collection. Now that the price is down, hurry up and buy it!
DVD Review: Great ending season for the show! Summary: 5 StarsThis is pretty much your typical I Dream of Jeannie season, with one major exception. Jeannie finally gets married to Tony. A great way to end it all. The Network actually planned to cancel I Dream of Jeannie after the 4th season, but agreed to buy a 5th and final season ONLY if Jeannie got married. A 5th and final season was made, Jeannie got married, NBC got lots of free press, and the series was then cancelled. Since this is a review of the 5th season, and I assume folks would not be buying this season unless they already had the first 4, I will not go into detail about the episodes except to say they are typical of the series excepting Jeannie's marriage to Tony. Most of what I have read in the other reviews is accurate. If you already have the first 4 seasons, buy this one to complete your set, and you will have the episode where Jeanne finally gets married to Tony, which is almost never shown on TV in the reruns.
DVD Review: The Final Season is the Best Summary: 4 StarsI Dream of Jeannie final season is one of the best seasons. This is a must have for a Jeannie fan. Finally the fun loving genie gets her wish granted. There are so many episodes that you'd laugh so hard it will hurt. This maybe an old show but a classic one. The cool thing about having the dvd's is that once you finish an episode you can watch it all over again and laugh your butt off.
DVD Review: Jeannie never jumped the shark... Summary: 5 StarsFinal seasons of a tv show are usually nortorious for doing something to wreck the show.
This show never did, despite the marrige of Jeannie to Tony. It remained just as silly and irreverent right up to the last frame of the final show.
I would have liked to have seen a sixth season, if only to tie up a few loose ends. However, this is one of my all time favorite old time tv shows, and forever will be, as it never took itself seriously, and delivers on the laughs, from the first season to the last.
DVD Review: love it! Summary: 5 StarsI love this show, and I love the last season! It is such a clean fun! With great charcters played by gorgeous actresses and actors! Love love love it!
Description of I Dream of Jeannie - The Complete Fifth SeasonThe last magical season with Jeannie! The mayhem continues when Jeannie has to choose between being Tonys wife or being the queen of a country. Against Tonys wishes, Roger and Dr. Bellows plan a bachelor party for him. At the wedding, Jeannie and Tony try to figure out how to avoid photos since genies dont show up in pictures. The most beloved midriff on television finally went off the air, but the last season of I Dream of Jeannie was just as enjoyably silly as ever. Ever-helpful and virtually all-powerful Jeannie (Barbara Eden) turn her beloved astronaut Tony Nelson (Larry Hagman) into a concert pianist and a pool shark; a magic cream turns Mrs. Bellows (Emmaline Henry) into a completely different woman; magic dog Djinn Djinn and his "wife" are about to have puppies, but everyone thinks it's Jeannie who's pregnant; when a hotel is full, Jeannie gives it a new floor. But of course the big event of this season is the wedding: Tony and Jeannie finally get married, thus domesticating the show's classic male fantasy... though truly, there's no more hint of sex between the leads after the wedding than there was before it. In fact, it's surprising the show began to lose popularity; there's practically no difference between stand-alone episodes before the wedding and after it. The most enjoyable episodes of the fifth season are actually the ones setting up the wedding, which give the show a sense of momentum and richer character relationships that standard episodes, fun though they may be, usually lack. Mind you, this is still I Dream of Jeannie, not Six Feet Under--Tony's decision to marry Jeannie after resisting for so long happens without much soul-searching--but it still adds just a hint of narrative depth. Other pleasures this season include Eden's parade of groovy short-skirted outfits; brief supporting appearances by Farrah Fawcett, Dick Van Patten, and others; and the ever-dependable weaselly behavior of Roger (the ever-dependably great Bill Dailey), the show's crucial ingredient. I Dream of Jeannie was never a groundbreaking sitcom like Roseanne or Seinfield; it had a goofy but clear premise and mined it for predictable but also dependable humor. For fans, all five seasons will reward their devotion. --Bret Fetzer
