I Dream of Jeannie is one of the most beloved TV shows. It has been on the air ever since it debuted. However, it did get cancelled after five seasons in 1970.
Barbara Eden feels it could have gone longer, and she has a theory of why it ended. Over the weekend, the actress tweeted, “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”
Do you agree with her? TV experts believe her because it is noted as the first show to get the ax for this reason. Other shows that met their fate the same way are Moonlighting, Who’s the Boss?, and The Nanny. Once the sexual tension is gone, so is the show.
