Who knew Barbara Eden had been in so many movies and TV movies and stuff? I mean I knew she was a staple of my childhood but when I think Barbara Eden, I just think Jeannie. OK I also vividly remember her on Dallas because that was kind of unforgettable. Reading Jeannie Out of the Bottle made me want to go back and watch some of these old movies and stuff.
If you grew up with Jeannie, read the book. It’s fun – except when it’s sad, of course.
Did she talk about the kid who mowed her lawn? My friend’s mother’s boyfriend mowed her lawn when he was a kid! That’s one degree closer to Kevin Bacon for me. 🙂
Did she talk about being married to Chuck Fegert….my boss at the Chicago Sun-Times/Daily News? Probably not…they’ve been divorced for some time now; but it was kind of cool at the time.
