Which one of these do you think is the better show and why?
I've always thought Bewitched was the better show and after watching a few of the 1st season of I Dream of Jeannie episodes I'm now sure of it. Although Barbara Eden is cute and the show has a cool opening theme with the animation and all I just don't think the show itself holds up well. It's really more of a cornball "Gilligan's Island"-type show full of physical comedy and none of it is very funny...at least not anymore. One can only take so much of Major Nelson's nevous talking and bumbling antics and Jeannie is played as such a dumbell that there is no balance between the 2 main characters. Bewitched at least has balance and I do find the stories, characters and acting on that show much better. I even like the special effects better.
so what do the rest of you think - Jeannie or Bewitched?
