Finding Jeannie
At first Sheldon could not find an actress to portray Jeannie in the way that he wanted. He had one rule: no blondes. He did not want the character of Jeannie being confused with the blond character from Bewitched. After awhile, he gave Barbara Eden a call. He met her for tea. As they say, the rest is history. Sheldon had his Jeannie.Quotes from I Dream of Jeannie
