[post_page_title]Producers Don’t Prefer Blondes [/post_page_title]
Believe it not, the producers of I Dream of Jeannie didn’t want a blonde to play the lead! The masterminds behind the Jeannie persona wanted to avoid as much similarity and comparison to Bewitched as possible; the problem was, they didn’t expect Barbara Eden to blow them away with her casting audition. Other actresses, notably brunettes, auditioned for the magical role but none could compare to Eden. Her warmth and humorous personality toppled over the issue with her blonde hair.
