Larry Hagman has passed away from cancer. He was 81.

I am in shock.

Thanks for posting it here, Jayman. Definitely a shock.

:rip: Larry

R.I.P to a true television icon. He would surely be missed.

:rip: to Jeannie's master...

A fine entertainer. May he rest in peace.

I Dream Of Jeannie’s Barbara Eden On Larry Hagman: ‘There Was No One Like You’

Barbara Eden, who starred with Larry Hagman, in the mid-1960s sitcom “I Dream of Jeannie,” has released a statement, following the death on Friday of her co-star.

“I still cannot completely express the shock and impact from the news that Larry Hagman has passed,” Barbara wrote in a statement, posted on her Facebook account, late Friday night. “I can still remember, that first day on Zuma Beach with him, in the frigid cold. From that day for five more years, Larry was the center of so many fun, wild, shocking… and in retrospect, memorable moments that will remain in my heart forever.”

Barbara, who played Jeannie and Larry, who played Major Anthony Nelson in the series, which ran from 1965-1970, said she recently reconnected with the star and remains thankful for the time they had together.

“I am so thankful that this past year I was able to spend time with him and experience yet again ‘Larry’ in all his Big Texas bravado.,” she wrote.

The actress went on to share her condolences with Larry’s spouse, Maj, and his family, over their heartbreaking loss.

“I, like many others believed he had beat Cancer and yet we are reminded that life is never guaranteed. My deepest condolences go out to his wife Maj, his son and daughter and his grandchildren, as well as his friends in this time of his passing. I can honestly say that we’ve lost not just a great actor, not just a television icon, but an element of pure Americana,” she wrote.

“Goodbye Larry, there was no one like you before and there will never be anyone like you again,” Barbara concluded.

Looks like Eden and Hagman were good friends until the end.

RIP Larry!

...of meeting Barbara and Larry at the October 2011 "Chiller Theatre Convention" in Secaucus, New Jersey. Even though they were on opposite sides of the room, Larry was very gracious to me [in his own private way], and I still treasure the autograph he gave me {and Barbara's, as well}. I'll always remember my one chance to meet him in person....

Rest in peace.

R.I.P. Mr. Hagman. I never watched Dallas but I enjoy him on I Dream Of Jeannie. Time to bring out the Jeannie DVD's and have a multi episode marathon.
