I think there should have been a few more episodes featuring Jeannie's mother, in the yellow outfit played by Barbara Eden also. She should have pursued Dr. Bellows, like she sorta did in the 1 episode she was in. I'd like to have seen her ~likely~ yellow smoke, and it this would have further drove Dr. Bellows over the edge lol

Jeannie had a brother and sister-in-law, who are also only mentioned in "Abdullah" and never seen. Some uncles we do see as well as cousin Hamid (S-3, Ep-20 "Please Don't Feed the Astronauts") but no other female djinn. There is one scene with a haremgirl in the 3rd episode of "Genie-Genie-Who's Got the Genie?" where it appears that she blinks Tony out of the cage including with a blink sound, but it could be argued that she didn't actually blink him out of it. It's unclear when you watch, due to her both blinking and then the sound happening. Maybe haremgirls can be djinn, too? Might make their purpose that much more fun for the master

Thinking more about it, I guess they were trying to distance themselves from Bewitched by not having relatives appear too often.... Bewitched was pretty much driven by either Samantha's relatives or Darrin's mother causing problems so I guess they wanted to keep the relatives to a minimum in IDoJ. I imagine constant bickering between Tony and Jeannie's mother would be too familiar to Darrin and Endora on Bewitched lol But it DOES look like Jeannie's mother would have been at the wedding at least. And yeah, I assumed the harem girls were also genies or at least had magic powers...... Tony was beckoning the one to help him get out of the birdcage, unless she had powers, I dunno how he expected her to help, because even if she opened the door and removed him, he'd still be tiny, and not much he could do |
