Somewhere in the great tv universe, Major Anthony Nelson and his faithful genie with her exposed belly button, Jeannie are sobbing...and giving a 21 smoking genie bottle salute!! Fyi..Mr. Sheldon bragged in an interview that he wrote nearly "every episode" of I DREAM OF JEANNIE...how many tv writers can and do and want to do that today? Another classic artist ascends to Heaven...R.I.P. and thanks for all my laughs from that show!

whaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!! he was the only author of that genre who put out consistently great books that you read in one day because you really couldn't put them down. RIP.
