What The Actors Thought Of Their Characters
According to Barbara Eden, her character was a “tomboy.” A lot of fans beg to differ. In an interview with Larry Hagman, he said, “Here’s a guy who’s square and there’s this beautiful, gorgeous woman putting the make on him all the time and he says, ‘no, no, no I have my career…’” That explains why it took Tony and Jeannie such a long time to get married. Sadly, it would have been better if they didn’t.
The Second Season Made History
After its first season came out, all the TV networks started to transition into color television. Since the second season also introduced the theme song, it pretty much ushered in this new era of entertainment. It also had an iconic animation sequence created by Friz Freleng. He is best known for working on Looney Tunes and creating beloved characters like Bugs Bunny, Tweety Bird, and Porky Pig!
