She’d correct you by saying “Barbara”. 😊

She is so beautiful.

happy 84th birthday barbara eden !!!!!!

she went to the high school i go to now!!

for 79-80 here she looks great she stayed curvy and she is a sweetheart in person.

She looks amazing.

like her personality.

nice to see a Barbara Eden interview no matter how bad the interviewer is and this one sure "takes the cake"

Her career consisted of mainly light fare which was consistent with her naturally sunny personality on screen. But without question and for many years she was one of the world's great beauties.

No I'm serious. She even said it herself, that she works out as much as she can and she eats healthy food.

Absolutely stunning.

Two reasons why she is irresistible...she smile easily and of course...she was and still is hot..

haha, you brought tears to my eyes. thank you! :D

You were WONDERFUL as always !! You made us fans so proud.

Barbara from the first time I seen you in this review You as Beautiful then and beautiful now don’t let no one tell you any different.

There is a special place in hell for Wendy Williams. How dare she put Barbara on the spot about losing her children. You could see she was in pain about it.

i hate wendy williams but i love barbara eden

I like them both!

Wendy just revealed in her TV bio that she, too, had a stillborn baby. I guess she wasn't ready to talk about it back then.

Lack of research on the loud talk host 'Wendy' is out there a long time ..don’t think Barbara Eden was relaxed in the interview ...

She seem more relaxed her than in others.

Check out Jami Ross, she's my daughter. I had her picture taken as a child in a I dream of Jeanie costume and and she's a ringer. She's only 23 now and would make Barbara Eden proud. She's all over the internet and could pass as her daughter almost more than mine.

What a vile interview, I pity poor Barbara Eden having to go throught this time after time.

Pity 💚 cause Barbara Eden is so down to earth .....after all she was a terrific actress and on our TV.. screens in 70tees for years., Still showing by the way in 2020 and in many countries & internet 🧞‍♀️ Wendy is out there a long time too with a lot of experience, well used of interviewing well know people & stars. But...it was okay interview.👌

Volume is really low, can barely hear at full volume

thats a great idea

💖

Wendy got all her news from reading the tabloid ?? oh well Wendy .. It's a No No !!

No it's called working out.

I will say your sons is in Heaven waiting for You. Pease don’t let anyone tell you they are not. Your 2nd son is very excited to see you in Heaven because he did not see and smile 😀. Barbara you see both of your sons beside of Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior. Our lives just a puff of smoke 💨 and fades away. God Bless You.

Jeannie for an updated movie: Kaley Cuoco!!!!!! Yummmie.....

I know that it doesn't lift your face, I may be young but I'm not dumb. But I don't agree that she's had plastic surgery on her body.

her "secret" is obviously a good plastic surgeon.

Be eadten u

oh, I'm sure she does, but that does not lift her face like that, it's so obviously surgery. you don't seem to work out yourself or you would know it does not lift your face.

Reese is a little too old to be Jeannie IMO. Casting an unknown would be awesome! Or Kristen Bell hahaha

Reese Witherspoon is too old to play the Jeannie lead character role now, I agree. But her daughter Ava Philippe - who is the spitting image of her now famous director/producer mom - would be the right age for it, perhaps ( i'm not sure if she has her mother's comedic talent?). The problem is the Jeannie character is extremely sweet and innocent. She's also a tomboy and a "fish out of water" character - as they say in Hollywood. And many of today's young actresses can't exude that same kind of sugary innocence without it coming off as insincere, clumsy and cheesy. Barbara Eden I think, like Doris Day, was just a really sunny person in real life. You can see it in all her interviews. It takes a very strong person to remain happy despite everything she went through with her son, Matthew. It's clear that Barbara Eden is just a very stoic woman and she has remained that way into her 80s!! She didn't allow the slings and arrows of life to ruin her, as many Hollywood actors do. When they remade the "IDOJ 15 Years Later" movie in 1985 it was terrible with Wayne Rogers as Major Anthony Nelson and he was so, so, so bland in it! Yikes! The young and very handsome Larry Hagman had a devilish charm and debonair style which was the perfect foil for Barbara's lightness and sunshine. Barbara should NEVER have done that '85 remake. I remember being so disappointed in it when I saw it back then, as I was such a huge fan of the show as a kid. It ruined the memories! She already had begun to age by then [not in a bad way, just in a way which made her unconvincing as Jeannie by that stage because a "genie" (being an entity that exists outside space and time) shouldn't age, by rights! ]. Even though Barbara looked attractive still (she'd done Harper Valley PTA) and I remember thinking it just seemed silly seeing her in that character role again, no matter how wonderful she was/is and how great she looked/looks. Casting directors and producers often don't think how audiences think. Audiences mentally cross-reference actors to other roles they've done and they associate certain character traits across genres. Seeing "Jeannie" as a woman by then in middle age looked embarrassing in that iconic Jeannie harem suit. They also over-spangled the harem costume being in the "Dynasty-era" 1980s and it all looked.... well... just dated and out of context for the time. If they remade it now, with all the modern-day access to CGI effects, and our more modern-day take on "authenticity", I feel it could work. What I'd like to see I think, is the prequel to "I Dream of Jeannie": not the show remade exactly the same way. Because then it's boring. Like the Star Wars prequel, we Jeannie "tragics" need and want to see the backstory to "before" Jeannie and the Major meet (where did Jeannie come from? Where was she born? How did she land on that beach in that bottle before Major Nelson picked her up? Who was the evil Djinn that jailed her in the bottle and why? Go back to Ancient Persia where she came from.) We want to see all of that! I also want to see the lead up to how Major Nelson became an astronaut. The two characters are both dashingly romantic figures. There is nothing more romantic than a genie or an astronaut, and the narrative tension of science versus magic isn't at all a new narrative arc, and is one which in fact had become fashionable during the romantic gothic novels of the 19th century like Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein." The science v's magic plot would work perfectly in the digital age in which we live, where religious fundamentalism and technology seem to butt turbaned heads like never before! So... "Jeannie, the Prequel" (perhaps as a 10-part series for television as in the American Horror franchise or Project Blue Book - both shows with high strangeness themes actually ) is how they should remake it now and then to parlay all of that history into the "Lady in the bottle" scene on the beach in the Pacific (episode 1, 1965) which still remains to this day a "masterpiece" (if I can use that term here) of pop culture romanticism. Storylines need to be retold for modern audiences. When they remade Bewitched with Nicole Kidman, I thought Nicole looked (and even acted, especially the kinaesthetics and facial gestures and the kind of primness Liz Montgomery had) very much like Elizabeth Montgomery - which wasn't the problem per se - but again, Will Farrell as Darrin Stephens was horrifically and unfunnily terrible once again. The role should've gone to Jim Carey who would've played an awesome Darrin Stephens - and looks like the original actor as well - but in a more modern way. Jim's face is so plastic which Dick York's face was also. Shirley Maclaine as Endora was also disappointing (she didn't have anywhere near the imperious style or the aplomb and poise of the late, great theatre actress Agnes Moorehead who played Endora in the original series), and the script itself was a disaster because it just didn't make sense. It was way too "postmodern" in style. It was silly and clumsy and just not funny. Kidman tried her best and I think she would've been great as Samantha had she had a different script. The best remake of a sitcom of that period was the Brady Bunch movie because somehow it was very funny and the casting was great. They got the mix of nostalgia and irony just right for modern times (the fabulous comedienne Christine Taylor who played Marcia was terrific in the remake) and it was uncanny how much she looked like Maureen McCormack the original 70s Marcia Brady). They can't remake this genre of "supernatural" series that were so "groovy" in the early-to-mid 1960s with the same magic now, because times have changed way too much. The whole genre (Jeannie, Bewitched, My Favourite Martian, The Munsters, Addams Family and so on) replaced the genre of westerns and police shows which were the cat's pajamas in the 1950s. With the dawning of a new age and certainly a new kind of Aquarian spirit of a new age in the early 60s, it was only fitting that this sort of magical realism sitcom became so fashionable. The spirit of youth and breaking of taboos they represented was right for the times. Interracial marriage and feminism was given a platform by then, and so characters like monsters, witches and genies marrying mortals allowed society to dip their slipper in the water, so to speak. Despite appearances to the contrary, the characters of Jeannie and Samantha were actually very liberated women. Their magical powers and personalities were never really beholden to their husbands or "master". They possessed a kind of hip, free spirit which 2nd wave Gloria Steinem feminism was all about. I always thought that Jeannie and Samantha were really hippie chicks in spirit, only dressed in conservative clothes in order not to "scare the horses." Interestingly, both characters had a twin sister or cousin and wore dark wigs for their doppelgänger parts. And those sassy characters were always a bit licentious and hippy in style. It was a way for the scriptwriters of weaving in that "femme moderne" into otherwise seemingly very conservative "stay-at-home" Patty Duke'esque housewife characters. All that sort of innocence just seems dated now and it's no longer funny and the humour falls flat because audiences these days have become too sophisticated and accustomed to vulgarity and swearing and so on. But if they could rewrite "I Dream of Jeannie" in a modern way without it coming off like the awful Bewitched remake and give it a new life, and a new angle, it could work amazingly well. Barbara could play a cameo in it, eg: ir love To see her play a feminist icon like Gloria Steinem for example, just to poke fun at the once-critiqued "Jeannie" character for being a female trope of slavery and subservience! Major Anthony Nelson needs to be played by a young comic actor who has that same kind of repressed and nervous sex appeal as Larry Hagman. (No one comes to mind with that same irresistible masculine mix just yet...) Strangely, if Taylor Swift were a comic actress, she could probably play Jeannie as she has a similar look and body type.... But I'm not sure she can act. Making pop videos is one thing, but great comedic timing - which Barbara Eden had in spades - is a much rarer talent. The thing with an actress like Barbara is: she made it all look so easy and seamless, and that's actually the mark of a very good actress. The show looked like soapy fluff, but in fact required expert timing, masterful special effects (for the time) and comic delivery. Gene Nelson was a master of that kind of TV "art". The thing with sitcoms as a genre is that whilst they seem frivolous and consumable, they need to be pitched very much to the sensibilities of their time, and speak to issues and styles which resonate with the audience for the time. Great sitcoms are "fashion" just like pret-a-porter, only funnier. "I Dream of Jeannie" came into popular consciousness at a time when the space age and space race was a very current topic. That's really what the show is based around: that very modern idea of exploring science and outer space in a practical way. Adding an ancient character like a beautiful and sexy blonde 2000 year old genie into that context, gave a very modern narrative something more classical to anchor it. It balanced it out and made the show a timeless one. Very few modern day sitcoms have that ancient-modern energy or "edge" (to use a very 60s concept) built into them.

she looks good - but plastic surgery .......
