For years, rumors of a potential sorceress smackdown between bottle-dweller Barbara Eden of I Dream of Jeannie fame and suburban spellcaster Elizabeth Montgomery have made the rounds. The concept the 2 magic customers of basic tv have been one way or the other locked in a mystic melee has all the time been too good a rumor to solid apart. However you may’t imagine every little thing you hear.
For essentially the most half, such gossip is smart. In any case, Eden and Montgomery starred on rival networks in considerably related roles, with one enjoying an omnipotent Jeannie in a suburban neighborhood, the opposite portraying a witch who traded her wand for a vacuum as a suburban housewife. I Dream of Jeannie ran on NBC from 1965 to 1970 with respectable rankings, whereas Bewitched ran on ABC from 1964 to 1972 and was a rankings juggernaut.
