Featured review
Ultimate Space Fantasy- Female Fantasy
When I was young, I used to dream of finding Jeannie & marrying her. I still dream of finding that bottle. If I really had met Barbara Eden, I would hug her & maybe more, but if she blinked, I might wind up on hot coals. I loved this show because it had impeccable pace & comedic timing. To me, Larry Hagman gives a great straight astronaut character life to Eden's unpredictable character that often was flying off the handle either by accident or on purpose putting Tony Nelson into trouble. Don't forget a great cast of folks led by Bill Dailey & Hayden Rourke who really provided great support for this lunacy. NASA created a great publicity machine with this program too. I loved this show a lot but only wish now that I could find a bottle on a beach of my very own. I think Larry Hagman's JR on DALLAS got good training here as very often Tony Nelson is making up lies to Dr. Bellows about things that have been blinked up. Now, if she could just blink up some oil wells for everybody, we could solve a lot of problems.
