I Dream of Jeannie. I just saw The Bob Newhart Show once many years ago, that was before I became a fan of the 80s Newhart. Too bad I don't get Sundance.

View Full Version : I Dream of Jeannie vs. The Bob Newhart Show icecream 09-09-2018, 04:07 PM I Dream of Jeannie. I just saw The Bob Newhart Show once many years ago, that was before I became a fan of the 80s Newhart. Too bad I don't get Sundance. Bonniegirl 09-09-2018, 05:59 PM I voted Bob too. Not that Bill wasn't good on IJOJ , just I like the Bob Newhart show much better than Jeannie!! ;) Svenfan1234 09-09-2018, 06:17 PM Bob Newhart.:) Fontaine 09-09-2018, 10:29 PM I Dream Of Jeannie did not have that great of a supporting ensemble, like Bob Newhart or Bewitched, but Bill Daily was wonderful in it. So even though Newhart was the superior show, IDOJ was Daily's best acting. howilu 09-10-2018, 10:09 AM I Dream of Jeannie was more of a gimmick show and The Bob Newhart Shot was a great ensemble comedy with a stable cast for the show's entire run. icecream 09-10-2018, 12:20 PM The Bob Newhart Shot was a stable cast for the show's entire run.I Dream of Jeannie didn't have any major cast turnover either (unlike its companion Bewitched :lol:). The core cast of 4 with Barbara Eden, Larry Hagman, Hayden Rorke, and Bill Daily was there for the whole run. AB 09-10-2018, 05:04 PM I liked him better in I Dream of Jeannie. He had a bigger part and was funnier in it. I liked both shows though. stevea 09-10-2018, 05:39 PM He was great in both shows, but the better character development and writing goes to The Bob Newhart Show. 1960'sTVfan 09-10-2018, 08:34 PM Bill Daily wasn't the main star in either show, but for me the vote is easy, I voted for Jeannie. I've never liked Newhart, to me he's annoying and unfunny. Jeannie aired for five seasons, not the best sitcom of all time but it's fun, certainly more fun than Newhart which is dull and bland compared to Jeannie. And Jeannie has the lovely and sexy Barbara Eden, I need say no more. :D :lol: Theda Bara 09-10-2018, 09:39 PM I thought Daily was great when he appeared on the Bob Newhart Show hence my preference. PhoenixAcres 09-11-2018, 07:17 PM Both shows had good writing but I found Jeannie on the whole to be funnier. Impressions 09-16-2018, 10:16 PM I Dream of Jeannie. I always found Bob Newhart boring and unfunny. |
