Almost 60 years of the same questions. So frustrating. Why don’t they ask how’s she’s been doing for 20+ years without her son? What does she attribute to her longevity, etc?
That, to my mind - is just politness and respect. One can imagine how questions like that would just lead to a "sensational search of drama" and more. Unfair.
@@StefanMarkBeeNo, she is a public figure and has spoken about her son before. Also, she has clearly aged very well and I think lots of people would want to know her secrets.
Actors are often pre-interviewed by producers, and may choose what questions they don't want asked. Her personal life, how she's managing his loss, is very personal. Also, I don't feel a man should be asking questions about her aging, it would come across badly.
Barbara Eden is very pretty and just as sweet. I waited on her at a tennis apparel store some years back and we ended up having coffee at my break. Very nice person.
When Barbara Eden says that Jeannie was never inhibited by her Master, not true. Tony was always telling her to get in her bottle. Samantha never had that problem. She chose to live in the mortal world, Jeannie, by controlling her bottle, put her under the controller of that person. Elizabeth Montgomery had issues with IDOJ, considering it a takeoff on BEWITCHED. But when they introduced Jeannie's evil twin sister, that got under Liz's skin, feeling it was to close to Serena. But the real thing that ticked her off is when Bill Asher directed the 1985 TV. Movie I DREAM OF JEANNIE: FIFTEEN YEARS LATER. Asher got a call from Liz and I think she called him an idiot. 🙂 But Liz never held any animosity against Eden or Hagman. She knew them, I believe. Oh, Tony was doing the same thing that Darrin did, hide Jeannie from the public. From a power standpoint, I'll take Samantha. Jail, a safe, or a bottle couldn't hold her.
I really wish I could have had lunch with her and ask her about I Dream of Jeannie on how they did the the magic so to speak it would be really interesting and I wonder if they really had a good time and they have a lot of laughs and she just seems like the girl next door and beautiful too by the way
