Barbara Eden dressed in her I Dream of Jeannie costume for a good cause last week.

She wore the costume at the Life Ball in Vienna Saturday, 5/25/13, where she appeared with Bill Clinton for HIV/AIDS fund raising.

Okay, is it just me that is under the impression that Clinton's theme song starts off

"Oh, I'm the king of the swingers, yea..."

I guess Larry Hagman was unable to attend... :?

Although I have to say her costume was rather tame compared to what some other people wore (or didn't) there - at least as far as what you saw on TV... :)

np: Spin Doctors - About A Train (If The River Was Whiskey)

Well, twofold props to Ms. Eden! Firstly for proving the costume still fits after all this time, secondly for putting it on again for such a good cause. :)

Heh. You can almost tell that "Jeanie" was probably Mr. Clinton's boyhood crush; look at the grin on his face. :D

Unfortunately, since i saw "The Crimson Horror", i know that Diana Rigg wouldn't look as good in one of Mrs Peel's jumpsuits these days...

Uh Yea the late Mr Hagman would have a very difficult time being there. He is missed by his fans.

He could have been put in the ashtray behind her.

Kudos to Barbara Eden.

Loved that show as a kid and an adult.

This gives me an opportunity to pose a quandary.

I'm surprised Pablo hasn't put Monica, or anyone else, in a Jeanie costume for Halloween, either in a comic strip or the Gallery. Or at least doing the crossed arms and nod before a poit.

Same goes for Samantha Stevens' [Bewitched] nose wiggle poit.

Maybe he doesn't want to step on CD Rudd's shtick with I Dream of a Jeanie Bottle...

I forgot about that comic, good catch.
I don't buy your theory though.
Teleportation references are hard to come by, especially humorous ones.
