“Jeannie”, a short-lived Saturday morning cartoon based on the hit sitcom “I Dream of Jeannie” was part of the “Super Retrovision Saturdaze” lineup on TV Land back in 1999.
They only time when I saw Jeannie when I was a kid in the new Scooby-Doo movies episode Scooby really like her at least she gave him kiss for freeing her in a bottle from that evil Genie
I've never watched her show, but I saw her for the first time (of course) in New Movies Scooby-Doo and this one episode for me is one of my favorites not only in this show but also in the Scooby-Doo series and, in my opinion, underrated. And the duo of Scooby-Doo and Jeannie is something beautiful, I would like to see more of them.
As previously noted, Rumiko Takahashi was inspired to create "Urusei Yatsura" from watching shows like "I DREAM OF JEANNIE" and "BEWITCHED" in her youth (in fact, in one manga story adapted for TV, Lum appears to Ataru as a genie, looking very similar to the animated "Jeannie").
Fun Fact: Joe Besser from the later Three Stooges lineup, did the voice of Babu, and several other HB characters. He always gets a bum rap because he had to step into some pretty big shoes that were previously filled by Curly and Shemp, but I always kinda found him endearing.
His other two biggest characters he voiced were Scare Bare for Yogi's Space Race and Galaxy Goof Ups and Puddypuss for The Houndcats. Though he also voiced Cupid in the Smurfs Valentine's Day special.
Joe Besser also played building superintendent Jillson on “The Joey Bishop Show” and played the bratty man-child Stinky on “The Abbott and Costello Show.”
Ty bro. Deleting is not what I do. I went back did research and sho nuff you are absolutely right. And I never knew that. I been walking around here sayin yapple dapple all day lol
***** Even as a kid, I could have come up with some better ideas for what to do if I had a girl with magic powers under my command. I thought she was pretty hot too.
My favorite is the one where her ponytail was cut off and she was trapped in her bottle and tje junkman had possession it..these cartoons are priceless
It’s funny how you forget something until it’s on RUclips. LOL!!! It’s also funny how many 60’s & 70’s sitcoms became Saturday morning cartoons and only last a year or two at best. Kids are so fickle. LOL!!!
He also had a one-time guest stint on the Partridge Family as one of Laurie's many boyfriends. Some people in show business sometimes settle for cartoon VO work when they're moonlighting on live-action shows, just to help pay the bills, until something better comes along. For example, there's Sally Struthers as the voice of Pebbles in the Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show about the very same time she was signed on for All in the Family. But it wasn't until after Star Wars had really taken off, did he start getting job offers for more steady work.
The probable lost egg of these shows right here. However you can't reply to older comments now, but people don't be daft like some of the people further down. Don't rely on what your bad teachers taught you. Recycling and Adapting have always been healthy parts of the entertainment industry. It was true in mythological stories, cultures borrowed and changed events to suit them. There are thousands of fairy tale stories from later periods that people did the same thing too. "Oh i like this formula, let's make our own version" so much so people had to make systems to categorize them by types. This bled into lots of books too. If you only know of a few, you might be a bit clueless that a lot of authors wrote plenty of similar things that you may be tempted to say they "ripped themselves off" but those terms are ignorant. Hell a lot of genres you enjoy today, detective, super heroes, soap operas, etc, all of those pretty much sprung off the first person who put the elements together and others copied the formula to make their own stories. This wasn't bad then, it's not now. It's just how it works. The movies, tv and cartoons are no exception. Hell yes Hanna Barbera milked formulas as much as they could. it's part of their success. However don't be blind to the fact that you just as easily write off many Disney and WB cartoons as following basic formulas, they are just as guilty. You can't say "never mind the differences" on this show, yet give something else a pass when they read it back to you. No one's forcing you to say you like something you don't, but in this age you are spending your free time on youtube, you have enough time to be using this internet to learn some of the correct history that's there for you to find. Ignorance doesn't make you look cool kids.
I finished watching her Show and I must say it's a nice and underrated series of HB, which is a pity because it's really nice, although not perfect. Nevertheless, someone please bring this series back to streaming and let everyone see it. 8/10 from me
@SardaukarPrime , the cartoon was based of the TV show I Dream Of Jeanie. the character Corry Anders was voiced by Mark Hamill. he did the cartoon before he appeared in Star Wars. the cartoon came out in 1973.
there is no dvd of this series only the live series i dream of jeannie the only cartoon jeanni that's on dvd is the crossover episode scooby-doo! meets jeannie on the vol.2 dvd set of the new scooby-doo! movies series but i do hope the complete series of this cartoon jeannie will come soon to dvd one day
The first time I thought of this cartoon again I remembered Flintstones voice saying, that Jeanie is cute and "Yapple Dapple" I remembered the teenage master Cory now. Oh now I remember the power in her pony tail. Barbara Eden never had that problem. LOL
I always thought Baboo was a Joe Besser impression... But it turns out he actually WAS voiced by Joe Besser! And the "Master"? MARK HAMMIL! No idea he was doing voice work back then.
I wish they still made cartoons about Genies and that had aribian night settings. The only show I can think of that does it now is Shimmer and Shine, which is cute, but I would like something more Kim Possibleish or Juniper Leeish
The surfer guy (her 'master') was Mark Hamill. He managed to get into starring roles in major movies a few years later, and then a decade after that he was back to doing cartoons. I love a career with symmetry.
Both Jeannie and Partridge 2000 AD were distributed by Columbia Pictures Television and were also part of the 1977 syndicated series "Fred Flintstone and Friends".
@mrgears You're correct! It is the voice of Joe Besser who replaced Curly and Shemp. Curly replaced Shemp. Then, Shemp replaced Curly after Curly developed health problems.
I hope someday this gets a Blu-ray or DVD release. Haven't seen the show since probably the mid 80s and only see the characters now in the New Scooby-Doo Movies.
Actually, '19Chuck', Fred Silverman {CBS' chief programmer for prime-time AND Saturday mornings} wanted to adapt some classic "fantasy" comedies of the '60s for his 1973-'74 schedule: Filmation gave him "MY FAVORITE MARTIANS", and Hanna-Barbera produced "{Teen}JEANNIE", which became the #1new show on Saturdays that fall. To generate interest for the new series, Silverman had "Jeannie" and "Babu" guest star on "THE NEW SCOOBY-DOO MOVIES" about a week after it premiered in September 1973...
Yes! I heard him on a podcast saying they told him it was just going to be a temp track, and another singer was going to re-record it, but when the show aired, they used Mark's vocals.
Thanks for the Factoid! I knew Mr. Besser (RIP) did the voice of Baboo. But I did NOT realize that was the young Mark Hammil in the leading role! I knew he was around back then (mostly doing made-for-TV movies) but i didn't know he did voice work until far later in his career!
You know, the only mention of Jeannie I'd ever heard of or even seen was on the "Scooby-Doo Meets Jeannie" hour-long movie. I didn't know she'd had her own cartoon. Thanks for uploading this.
@MissInvisible11 Not exactly. It was produced by Hanna-Barbera in association with Screen Gems, who also produced the "I Dream of Jeannie" series. It was intentionally created to be loosely based on the orig. series to help draw in an audience. You could see it as a 70's version of cartoon reboot of the earlier show maybe or simply a spinoff perhaps since IDoJ went off the air in 1970 and this toon coming out in '73.
This Hanna-Barbera cartoon ran for one season as part of CBS' Saturday Morning schedule from 1973 until 1974. This was based on the live-action prime time sitcom "I Dream of Jeannie". But in this version,Jeannie is a innocent,wild-eyed mischievous teenager who gets into more trouble than ever.
There couldn't BE any overt "sexual situations" because this was supposed to be a children's cartoon (no more than a typical "ARCHIE" cartoon, although in the comic books, there were no objections to, say, Betty and Veronica looking as "sexy" as possible without "pushing the envelope"). So, the only "sexy" thing about the teenage Jeannie was her appearance. Julie McWhirter (an impressionist now married to Rick Dees) was her voice because she could sound like a teenaged Barbara Eden...
The one episode which is closesty to that of the I dream of Jeannie episode is when Henry like Roger Healy wishes to be Corey like Roger wished to trade places with Tony but please do watch these and see for yourselves the hows the whys the Thicks and the Gists of these very episodes.
I was a huge fan of the live-action ‘I Dream of Jeannie’ and of ‘Bewitched’, because the special effects were so impressive to me. I was always asking my mom or my dad “how’d they do that?” I was totally unimpressed with this cartoon because no special effects were required.
No, he did a couple of things before then: He was Sean in WIZARDS in 77, and he did some voices for NAUSICAA and CASTLE IN THE SKY in the mid 80s. I just wasn't aware he'd done any voice work before STAR WARS.
@Guciom That's because the "Magical Girlfriend" genre, which "Ah My Goddess" belongs to, was heavily influenced by "Bewitched" and "I Dream of Jeannie", both shows being very popular in Japan back in the 60s.
Even more of a male ego trip than the original series, and therefore BETTER! Thanks for posting - I finally understand why I've always had a vague angst about ponytails. I guess that whole Star Wars thing was just a detour for Hamill between his early and later career as a voice actor.
So that's where the characters from that one Scooby-Doo movie came from. I literally had no idea.
Yup. I remember watching Laff-A-Lympics and having no idea where Babu came from.
Mark Hamill singing is such a treat!! So much fun to listen to!
Emily Fuller Years before he was the Joker on Batman TAS.
He actually started out as a VA before getting the call for American Graffiti...and that story a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away
It really WAS Mark Hamill singing the theme! Cool!
Also, the same guy who was Firelord Ozai. Who would've thought?
He must've been a teenager.
That was in 1973
“Jeannie”, a short-lived Saturday morning cartoon based on the hit sitcom “I Dream of Jeannie” was part of the “Super Retrovision Saturdaze” lineup on TV Land back in 1999.
Saturday morning in the 70s and early 80s was so special. I don't think we can ever make another generation understand that.
They only time when I saw Jeannie when I was a kid in the new Scooby-Doo movies episode Scooby really like her at least she gave him kiss for freeing her in a bottle from that evil Genie

He was the only one of the Stooges who used his birth name.
He also played an imaginary dragon in an episode of "The Alvin Show".
That's Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) singing this.
Dude no its not
Sorry i was wrong
Nick Felix ROLF. I like how instead of deleting your comment, you own up to the fact that you were wrong. I respect that.
Ty bro. Deleting is not what I do. I went back did research and sho nuff you are absolutely right. And I never knew that. I been walking around here sayin yapple dapple all day lol
Nick Felix SO THAT MUST ALSO BE THE JOKER FROM BATMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES. NOW THAT'S REAL COMEDY XD
=)
She was one Hot little cartoon character.
BadRonald1 fek yeah my first hard-on memory
***** Even as a kid, I could have come up with some better ideas for what to do if I had a girl with magic powers under my command. I thought she was pretty hot too.
Her hair was red instead of yellow
@@DoubleEdged7 this isn't the Genie played by Barbara Eden.
@@scarboroughjames7 they did whatever it took to stay out of the courtroom.
Warner Brothers should re master and release all the hanna Barbara cartoons on dvd not just scooby doo.
My favorite is the one where her ponytail was cut off and she was trapped in her bottle and tje junkman had possession it..these cartoons are priceless
It’s funny how you forget something until it’s on RUclips. LOL!!! It’s also funny how many 60’s & 70’s sitcoms became Saturday morning cartoons and only last a year or two at best. Kids are so fickle. LOL!!!
Blame the executives, half the shows aired on prime time, but had a hard time competing ratings wise.
12 days ago was this Show's 50th Anniversary
Joe Besser,of the Three Stooges was the voice of Babu!!!!...great memories!!! :)
So that Mark Hamill guy, he end up doing anything after this? :-)
rafterscott ur kidding right
He also had a one-time guest stint on the Partridge Family as one of Laurie's many boyfriends.

I Dream of Jeannie, this Cartoon Spin Off and Magic Mongo! They all find their genies on the beach. I've been looking in the wrong places!
It's like some kind of proto-Fairly Odd Parents.
This would never fly today...
I finished watching her Show and I must say it's a nice and underrated series of HB, which is a pity because it's really nice, although not perfect. Nevertheless, someone please bring this series back to streaming and let everyone see it. 8/10 from me
Seems to me that guy had his own magic and didn't need Jeanie-- He was able to surf on TOP of the wave!
Lol 😂
@SardaukarPrime , the cartoon was based of the TV show I Dream Of Jeanie. the character Corry Anders was voiced by Mark Hamill. he did the cartoon before he appeared in Star Wars. the cartoon came out in 1973.
Great spinoff of the classic 60s sitcom 🍺🍺
'Yapple, dapple!'
Right On! Used to watch this cartoon as a kid in the 70s...it didnt really follow the TV show's storyline, but it was still cool.
I just love this cartoon!! I bought the DVD from the comic book store!!
there is no dvd of this series only the live series i dream of jeannie the only cartoon jeanni that's on dvd is the crossover episode scooby-doo! meets jeannie on the vol.2 dvd set of the new scooby-doo! movies series but i do hope the complete series of this cartoon jeannie will come soon to dvd one day
THERE IS A DVD?????
@@mauromesa78 me to
One of the few Hanna-Barbera series not owned by Warner Bros, but rather Sony because Babu was seen on the Laff-a-Lympics
Whoa, I saw this show way before puberty and it seemed so innocent, lol. Now it's like...what a buncha horndoggers.
Jesus Christ I had it bad for Jeannie when I was a wee lad watching this!
I believe this is Mark Hamill’s first ever role.
As doing a voice for a cartoon yes. In a role? No. He did live action before then.
Mark Hamill also sang the theme song.
He had been on other shows like Room 222 and The Partridge Family a few years before Jeannie.
The first time I thought of this cartoon again I remembered Flintstones voice saying, that Jeanie is cute and "Yapple Dapple" I remembered the teenage master Cory now. Oh now I remember the power in her pony tail. Barbara Eden never had that problem. LOL
OMG IT'S LUKE SKYWALKER
I'M TREMBLING
I LOVE HIM EVEN MORE NOW
I think that's none other than luke skywalker (Mark Hamill) singing this intro!
Have not thought of this since the 70's ... thank-you
'Yes Master?'
... this has kinky fantasy written all over it.
... will watch.
Julie McWhirter, later known as Julie Dees voiced Jeannie. She is an impressonist, and sounds a little like Barbara Eden.
You think? I think she sound skinda like Barbara Feldon.
Married to DJ Rick Dees!
Love how Jeannie's a redhead in this.
I always thought Baboo was a Joe Besser impression... But it turns out he actually WAS voiced by Joe Besser! And the "Master"? MARK HAMMIL! No idea he was doing voice work back then.
WOW! Vivid 1973 flashback! My Jnr. High/H.S. days sucked but Saturday Mornings were Great thanks to stuff like this! Yaffl-Daffful!
I wish they still made cartoons about Genies and that had aribian night settings. The only show I can think of that does it now is Shimmer and Shine, which is cute, but I would like something more Kim Possibleish or Juniper Leeish
I got hooked on tales of the Arabian Nights, thanks to cartoons like "Shazzan" and (of course) "The Arabian Knights."
Here I am in 2022 wondering where the days went?
man im old....i use to watch this..
I like the episodes with Smelvin, Corey and Henry always call him Smelly LMAO!
The surfer guy (her 'master') was Mark Hamill. He managed to get into starring roles in major movies a few years later, and then a decade after that he was back to doing cartoons. I love a career with symmetry.
You probably don't know this, but he had a brief role in the Ralph Bakshi film "Wizards".
Wow! That's Luke Skywalker singing this! He was like 22 years old.
I'm sure it had many fooled really to have any thought that Mark Hamill did the singing intro.
No way!!! 😱 I would have never guessed it was Mark Hamill singing!
Both Jeannie and Partridge 2000 AD were distributed by Columbia Pictures Television and were also part of the 1977 syndicated series "Fred Flintstone and Friends".
What a career...from voicing proto-derp Cory Anders in this to saving the Galaxy and bedeviling a Dark Knight.
Mark Hammil AND Joe Besser in one cartoon!?! That must be some casting for the voices.
@mrgears You're correct! It is the voice of Joe Besser who replaced Curly and Shemp. Curly replaced Shemp. Then, Shemp replaced Curly after Curly developed health problems.
I hope someday this gets a Blu-ray or DVD release. Haven't seen the show since probably the mid 80s and only see the characters now in the New Scooby-Doo Movies.
A deal would have to be worked out between Sony Pictures and Warner Bros. and Hanna-Barbera with is why Jeannie is not in the S-D movies dvd.
Didn't miss many Saturday morning cartoons in the 70's, but Ive never seen this one, probably didn't last long.
I just love these themes!! I got the DVD!!
Where did you get the dvd's I remember it. When I was 5. When I asked people they didn't remember it.
I just started watching this and I absolutely love the series!
Where are you watching it at? I haven't seen this show since probably the mid 80s and I really wanna see it again.
@@mysterion3182 Philo
I didn't realize that Mark Hamill sang this.
I remember them!! I never saw the cartoon, but I saw the characters on an episode of New Scooby Doo Movies.

WISH THE CARTOON NETWORK COULD BRING JEANNIE CARTOON BACK ON TV?
Needs permission from Columbia Pictures since they own that show.
You know, the only mention of Jeannie I'd ever heard of or even seen was on the "Scooby-Doo Meets Jeannie" hour-long movie. I didn't know she'd had her own cartoon. Thanks for uploading this.
I missed this show a lot
I loved that cartoon I've got a I Dream Of Jeannie fashion barbie doll shoes so cute
This....this cartoon going places....
"chick", "master"....
That was the Scooby Doo movie where Jeannie is captured (something that never happened to her on her own show) and Scooby Doo rescued her.
I love this cartoon Jeannie even more than the TV show one. Maybe because she is a redhead like me.
How come this kid wasn't in Vietnam?
Bravestarr Sandseer I always figured Major Nelson made a few calls got Dr. Bellows to section 8 him.
+Bravestarr Sandseer Because he was just out of college and his number didn't come up
Man, that genie who said "Yapple Dapple" was the flamingest genie ever.
"There's too much apple in my yapple dapple"
You are right on about that.
Good ol' Joe! R.I.P. Joe Besser (former Stooge).
Mark Hamill is also singing the theme I believe...
Loved the geanie sidekick. "Now how does that spell go......oh oh yeah yappple dapple"
yabble dabble...wow. we used to watch this stuff, lol.

You got some skills!! I'll give you that....
Yabbo Dabbo! Dang. Haven't seen that in ages, no idea Mark Hamill was the voice(!) dang. That takes me back.
Man she was designed hot!!!
I really think that it is so awesome and so cool animation music show video 🌟
That’s pre-Star Wars Mark Hamill singing the theme song.
We need an updated version of this toon!
Are you kidding ? Hoyt Curtain did a wonderful job of it. I wouldn't change a thing
Fantastic the best 👏👍
Yet another cartoon I never got to see.
There couldn't BE any overt "sexual situations" because this was supposed to be a children's cartoon (no more than a typical "ARCHIE" cartoon, although in the comic books, there were no objections to, say, Betty and Veronica looking as "sexy" as possible without "pushing the envelope").

That's because the "Magical Girlfriend" genre, which "Ah My Goddess" belongs to, was heavily influenced by "Bewitched" and "I Dream of Jeannie", both shows being very popular in Japan back in the 60s.
Problem with getting someone to show this show is that Screen gems owns the rights to all the characters except babu. Not Hanna Barbera
I belive it is.
@Guciom the whole genre that AMG comes from was inspired by bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie
Even more of a male ego trip than the original series, and therefore BETTER! Thanks for posting - I finally understand why I've always had a vague angst about ponytails. I guess that whole Star Wars thing was just a detour for Hamill between his early and later career as a voice actor.

0:35 That wasn't nice Jeannie.
That poor girl couldn't swim.
I remember this cartoon. I love this cartoon back in the day. Team I Dream of Jeannie. I hope the new movie doesn't suck when it comes out.
@troyboy7962 , yes it was a animated Spin off of I dream of Jeanie.
