What was your favorite episode of I Dream of Jeannie? Mine was the pilot and The Wedding, although marrying Jeannie and Tony was a mistake and ultimately brought about the end of the show, also she was just a wisp of smoke, even if SHE thought she was real! -B

Well, she needs to come over here! Here they are:

1. The one where she shrinks Tony and goes off to the store. Meanwhile tiny Tony is pursued by the cat next door, who chases him onto the record player and the phone, and varying other places in the house.

2. The one where she adds a 13th floor onto their and the Bellows' hotel, which lost their reservation.

3. The one where she turns the NASA piano into Tony's virtuoso instrument. The trouble ensues when he can't play any other piano.

Jeannie or the Tiger I think.... As a child it fascinated me so much how Jeannie's sister looked just like her but had dark hair, I was always excited to see an episode with "the brown headed Jeannie" or "the dark headed Jeannie" as I called her

Someone brought up Hurricane Jeannie in another thread, and that's one of my favorites. Another is the Wedding, though I'd agree with Barbara that it brought on the cancellation of the show (though I don't think it really killed their chemistry). I also loved The Birds and the Bees Bit. And so many more....

I like the evil sister ones

I'm a fan of Emmaline Henry, so I could name several Season 5 episodes from when Amanda Bellows has her friendship with Jeannie -- and looks elegant -- as ones that I favor. "Jeannie's Beauty Cream" (Season 5, ep 5, 1969) comes to mind, as the cream turns Amanda's appearance into her younger self. A fun concept, Roger Healey is hot for her immediately.

I think that watching it as a child during first runs, my favorite was the one with Richard Keil as the heavy, back in ancient Persia.

I think that now days, from a purely historical perspective, the episode that featured Tommy Boyce, Bobby Hart, and Phil Spector is my favorite now.

All the episodes where some thug or con man is out to get Tony, but Jeannie uses her power to inflict deterrence are memorable, as well. Just something about the formula of Jeannie, in her child-like state of innocence, rising above the "worldly" villains ....that I find entertaining.

Willbo · 07-11-2022, 02:57 PM

Always like the Hurricane Jeannie episode also. For some reason, I liked Tony and Jeannie being married.

rusty spike · 07-12-2022, 10:16 AM

From Season 5

The Mad Home Wrecker

The decorator makes a mess of the home, courtesy of the Bellows. There's some art work that constantly burps of indigestion.

Very funny episode.

CosmicCharlie · 07-16-2022, 02:22 PM

Emmaline Henry's Navel while Jeannie is in a 1 piece bathing suit

Quite the Hip Huggers

Babalu · 07-16-2022, 03:53 PM

The ones where she shows the most cleavage.

Sorry, but it's true.

Willbo · 07-18-2022, 02:24 PM

Emmaline Henry was such a beauty. Not sure what Hayden Roark is wearing.

ansara1 · 02-14-2023, 12:31 PM

"The Americanization of Jeannie" is a great episode.

"The Moving Finger" is a great episode and is
also very touching. It really sums up their true
feelings for each other. Jeannie is totally in love
with Tony and will do anything to please him. Tony
tries to hide it, but he truly loves Jeannie. Worried
about her, he ultimately goes to check on her rather
than go out with a famous movie star.
