I Dream of Jeannie 5th Season DVD Boxed Set info... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

IDoJOnline · 10-24-2007, 06:06 PM

Just dropping all you fans a note that production is deep underway on the fifth season and FINAL I Dream of Jeannie DVD Boxed Set. The principle photography is nearly compiled and layout/design is underway. As with previous seasons there will be no extra features sadly, but this set will complete the full series.

Rumors of a 'Complete Series' boxed set are still just that, rumors. I am and have been one of the principle designers of the boxed sets since season three and as of this posting there are no plans to combine all five seasons into one set for release. Also there are no plans to add any extra features to any future sets. I know a great deal of you have been hoping for this, and some of you have been told this would happen. It would be a great addition to the I Dream of Jeannie collections but at this time there are NO PLANS for such a product.

Thanks for letting us know! I'm looking forward to completing my 'IDOJ' DVD collection.

catlover79 · 10-24-2007, 10:49 PM

Very cool! Thanks for the headsup.

Robert 13 · 10-30-2007, 11:23 AM

Thanks for the great news! I'm on the last disc of Season 2. By the time I'm done with Season 4, the final season will probably be released.

Incidentally, do you know if the Jeannie movies will be heading to dvd? Does Sony even own them? I would love to see IDOJ: 15 Years Later come to dvd. It's my favorite out of the tv movies even though Larry Hagman was not in it. I love to see Dr. Bellows back to "hallucinating" in the restaurant scene. LOL!

clj2 · 10-30-2007, 06:39 PM

Thanks for the info! I hope to get the entire Jeannie series eventually.

Do you have any info on the next Bewitched season (6, I believe)?

Robert 13 · 02-08-2008, 03:52 PM

So what happens with the tv movies, if anything?

Carrie · 02-25-2008, 11:26 AM

Season 6 of Bewitched was just announced by Sony to be released on May 20th, so let's hope that season 5 of IDOJ is not far behind!

Will both IDOJ movies be in the complete series set?

CAJeannieFan57 · 06-07-2008, 04:09 PM

How about those of us who have been loyal fans and already own 4 seasons of IDOJ with plans to buy the 5th when it comes out -

HOW DO WE GET THE MOVIE WITHOUT BUYING THE WHOLE SERIES ALL OVER AGAIN?????

NOT FAIR to loyal fans!!!! PLEASE tell me they'll sell it separately -

Not the first time (or last) that a company has shafted loyal fans who buy the individual seasons, only to give bonuses on the complete series set, not available on their own

I agree - what a bum deal.

Jack77 · 06-08-2008, 09:03 PM

I just want you all to know that this is old news! I was the first & only person to report this back on 2-18-07 and Patterson at IDOJ online challenged me & my source. Again this has been the original plan all along and has been in the works ever since. In spit of what Patterson at IDOJ Online tells you that Sony had originally not planned a complete box set with extras, this is not the case! Ever since Sony saw The Brady Bunch Box Set with their extras, it was announced at a meeting that they would do the same for I Dream Of Jeannie. Now keep in mind everything I reported in my original post over a year ago (see bottom link) was in the planning stages. The main extras that Sony was focusing on was adding the two reunion movies & The 1999 Donny & Marie Reunion which included all three stars & the late Sidney Sheldon. Sony does own the rights to this special, so we might still get this as well on the set. As far as brand new interviews are concerned, Barbara Eden did return to Sunset Gower last year to tape some footage, so whether or not that makes it onto the final set is still up in the air in a cloud of pink smoke, but I will keep you posted!

I hate to tell you Patterson, but I told you so. I guess Sony is not at liberty to tell you everything especially when you live all the way in Atlanta, Georgia!
But I do love your art work!

P.S. I guess you owe me a "FREE" painted I Dream Of Bottle. So now you can "hand it to me" PAY UP!!!

Lee G · 06-09-2008, 12:06 PM

I'm not really a fan of these DVD extras, I think they are overrated. Usually it's stuff you look at once out of curiosity then you forget about it. One extra feature that's nice and worth watching is interviews with cast members giving their thoughts on the making of the show. As far as I Dream Of Jeannie goes, the reunion movies aren't that good anyway and lack the charm of the original show. The five individual seasons on DVD are fine with me, I won't waste money on the complete series box set.
