My name is Kim. I am not married and no kids, but Im an auntie of two and I live in Connecticut. Im Into movies, music, sports, friends, travel, and more. I love "I Dream Of Jeannie" as I have the DVDs, a book on the show, Larry Hagman's autobiography and much more. The show airs on WGN here. I believe it's coming back to TV land next month? I remember the show showing on that station! My favorite actor from the show is Bill Daily as you can tell my user name.

Hope to have fun here and all!

billdailyfanct · 09-25-2010, 09:44 AM

Thanks for the welcome, though everyone. Im sure I will enjoy my stay here. Here is a little bit more about me. My birthday is September 8th. Yep. Just passed 3 weeks ago or over that. I have a nephew and he's 14 years old and a niece who will be 16 in December. She has a boyfriend already which he seems nice and all. Yeah my older sister married in 1993. I have one other sister and one brother. I have family everywhere just about. CT, SC, NH, Washington state, NM, KS and elsewhere. Yes. I have all five season of "I Dream Of Jeannie" On DVD. I like season one more. The others seasons are good as well. I have them all in color and looking to get the first season in Black and White someday. I plan to get Barbara's book when It comes out since I have Larry's already and already said I have a book on the show "Dreaming Of Jeannie" Looking forward to collecting more IDOJ related things and I hope to really meet the cast someday. Especially BD since he's a favorite of mine and a huge fans of his. My mailman liked him in "The Bob Newhart Show" I did too along with The Match Game, ALF, and other things he was in other than IDOJ. Im hoping to get an IDOJ ringtone sometime as I also like to text and talk in emails. Well., thanks for the welcome everyone and hope to get posting here and make some great and awesome friends. so thanks for the welcome and I really do hope to enjoy my stay!

TV Knowledge Fan · 09-26-2010, 03:57 AM

...and do yourself a favor and get the first season DVD in black and white when you can. You might also want to think about travelling to Parsippany, N.J. to attend the "Chiller Theatre" convention about a month from now, because Barbara, Larry and Bill will be there!

billdailyfanct · 09-26-2010, 07:46 AM

Thanks. Thats 30 minutes from NYC and NYC is like 2-3 hours from me so that would be only maybe a four hour trip. Never bene to NJ. Would love to go. If I can get someone to take me or go with someone.

Do you have todress up or anything for that? I know it's Halloween weekend. Yeah I need to get season one in Black and White./ I have it in color. I hope they have commentaries still on season one like they did with the color ones.

TV Knowledge Fan · 09-27-2010, 01:41 AM

...although some people do. If you could find someone, it'd be worth it! I believe the commentary on the black and white DVD is the same as the colorized version....

billdailyfanct · 09-27-2010, 08:50 AM

Okay great thanks. The price for the black and white DVD isnt that bad! Okay cool that you dont have to dress up. How long to people usually stay and they have to pay for the hotel? What if you wanted to go for just one day? That be okay? Okay great. Yeah would be great if I could find someone closer to go with. Would be fun and worth it! as its only almost a three 1/2 hour drive from me and about two hours and 45 min from Hartford, Conn. so not bad as I love long drives. Hope to get someone closer to take me though!

TV Knowledge Fan · 09-28-2010, 02:22 AM

...although Saturday is usually the longest of the three [11am-7pm]. If you order tickets in advance, it's $20 a day. You don't have to stay at the Holiday Inn in Parsippany to attend, either. Like I said, chillertheatre.com has all the information about the event....

billdailyfanct · 09-28-2010, 07:40 AM

Okay great! That's not bad for a price for advance tickets. Whats the non busiest day? How do people dress? I know it is going to be cold there. hate to think of Winter or the cold. weather. Okay will check the website out. more.

TV Knowledge Fan · 09-29-2010, 11:21 PM

...Sunday is the "non-busiest", Kim, because the hours are limited- from 11am through 5pm (everybody starts "packing up" around 5). Most people, as I've said, usually dress informally, although some arrive in costume {and I wouldn't be surprised if several turned up as "Jeannie"!}. Do yourself a favor- visit the website and learn all you can about the convention. Advance tickets have to be postmarked by October 11th, so make your decision soon!

billdailyfanct · 09-30-2010, 10:10 AM

Alright cool!. Thanks. Will look at that site if I can today sometime as long as we don't loser power here as we are dealing with two systems which is bringing alot of wind and rain here to the East Coast. One being part of what's left of tropical storm Nicole and some other kind of system and going to get worse later and it all ends tomorrow. If I dont get the chance, I'll do so tomorrow. so, thanks! Would be cool to see alot dressed as Jeannie. Wonder if people have ever dressed as Tony or Roger. LOL
