I know I'm in the minority, but I can't sit through either I Dream Of Jeannie or Bewitched. Even as a little girl I remember thinking, "Wow these pretty, powerful women spend their whole lives waiting hand and foot on dumb, boring men who aren't even very nice to them. Why does anyone think that's funny?"

I found Major Nelson less misogynistic than Darren Stevens. At least he allowed Jeannie to use her powers, albeit for doing housework.

After a few checks to see it wasn't going to destroy the planet or something (checks might be tough, so this may involve a pinky promise), I'd just set the genie free. Who wants to force something into doing one's bidding?

But what if the genie wanted to stay with you? That did happen in I Dream of Jeannie. First episode, Major Nelson set Jeannie free, but she followed him to Coco Beach

At least it is the genie's choice, now.

I pray for no reboots of this franchise.

At least it is the genie's choice, now. Exactly, but it's important to let the genie see what the world has to offer outside the bottle/ lamp so it can make up it's own mind.

I was thinking of giving the genie an Atlas

access to the internet might be better than an atlas to show a genie what the world has to offer.

Perhaps genie will also be motivated to help solve global issues.

Who would you get as the voice of the Genie?

It's fiction so in my reality poor Robin Williams is still with us. [snif!]

I used to be on another board where the resident Queen Of All Egotists decided that his demise was the perfect moment to plug her stupid "spiritual" consultations, etc. "If 'd known him, I could've saved him!" Yeah, sure, Sister. [rolleyes]

Probably 10-15 years older than me, but y'know... age doesn't automatically provide maturity.

Cross those arms, and scrunch that face.
