October 20th, 1991 - The movie "I Still Dream of Jeannie" aired on NBC

Colonel Tony Nelson is on a top-secret space mission for NASA and Jeannie does not know of his whereabouts or when he'll be returning home to hear their son Anthony Jr.'s academic presentation speech. When Jeannie goes to NASA to question General Wescott about her husband's mission, he refuses to cooperate. To make matters worse, her jealous and mischievous younger sister Jeannie II reminds Sham-Ir (the chief genie) that Jeannie cannot remain in the plane of reality for more than three months without an earthly master, and Tony has been away for a long time. Sham-Ir gives Jeannie two weeks to either find her husband or a new master (a single male only) or else she must return to Mesopotamia forever. So Jeannie begins her desperate search for a temporary master which leads her to a singles bar and other misadventures.

What a sad day to remember but nowhere near as bad as the Green Acres and Beverly Hillbillies reunion movies.

...first, you had a writer who did NOT know what the series was all about [April Kelly] (and, therefore, reduced Bill Daily's appearance to virtually little more than an "afterthought"). Second, the two crooks involved looked as though they stumbled in from another movie. Third, no matter how gorgeous Barbara was, something was missing. And I think we all know what that "something" was....I just wish the movie had been better.

In his second TV movie review, the Rowdy Reviewer goes after (https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x20po0g) this reunion movie with almost no similarity to the I Dream of Jeannie TV show.
