Jean AKA Jeannie AKA Jeanie is a film, book, and magazine reviewer for a national magazine. Most of Jean’s work is done through email, which means he doesn't have to go into the office.
On a trip to find a gift for his girlfriend, Jean found an empty Genie Bottle. Upon picking up this bottle, Jean became the bottle’s new genie-powered occupant. Not only was Jean turned into a genie, but the bottle turned him into what he believed a genie of the bottle should look like. Which, due to his fascination with a classic 60s TV show, turned him into a busty blonde woman.
Well, they did not say they were using that as an excuse this time. But I guess it could be assumed that they might use the same one this time as well.
Does this mean you remember intrepid newsman Les Nessman from WKRP in Cincinnati? Well, since we’re going to New York City and not the Queen City on the Ohio, I guess we won’t be running into any other Nessmans…
Except in the “Scrooge” episode of WKRP, the Ghost of Christmas Future revealed that Les was a Republican leader in the U.S. Congress. (And married to Jennifer?)
Yes, Rodger has a one-track mind, but, he need to remember that Jeanie a Genie and she de-rail him if he tries any funny business. But, Rodger more like Jean, but, he can’t get on base with other girls. At least until Belle show up, which I have no doubt she will and then all hell going to break loose. With Jeanie, just being an observer, which will get her mad.
@mnmega: It was kind of obvious from what Belle said. Neil treated her like a human being, instead of a piece of meat. No wonder she was so thrilled with him.
Neil didn’t act like Jean and actually got his/her girlfriend to actually like him again. Rodge does act like Jean and know how this’ll go. Too bad Jean is too self centered to realize she’s being given a taste of her own medicine.
Of course, this will be the final nail for the Jean/Belle relationship if she ever finds out he took his cousin to the ceremony and not his girlfriend. 😛
This is definitely a case of getting what you asked for.
I am sure hopping bell shows up poor Roger has had a long dry spell. Plus I love seeing Jeanie get hers.
She is so self envole she just uses everyone around her. Even bell’s needs were not taken care of properly.
Yes, I agree with you that Jeanie is selfish and self centered and everything is about him/her and every one else are just useful idiots to her. I like to see get what coming to her too and Rodge is the man to do it too, because, he one that the most like Jeanie when she was in her male form too. She did ask for it and I think that she should get it too and in a big way.
I see Jeanie doing one of two things:
1. Doing her Genie number on Rodge and have to have Lord Guano put Jeanie in her place.
2. Curl up Neil arms, cry and comfort herself there, because, thing didn’t the way she wanted them to go. I am assuming that she not thinking about it and is just reacting on her emotions and not thinking about what it look like. After all, she been operating more on emotions lately than operating on trying to look strong and choosing not to cry. Which is the way most girl choose to act.
3. Some combination of the above.
Not really, Girls like to be loved and Guys like to be respected. That is also why the scripture say to the man to love the wife and then tell women to honor the man.
Because, men have a problem with the love issue and women have a problem with honor issue. As a gender issue, each gender has a corresponding problem, when it come to doing it. Now there are exception, but, I am referring to them as group.
Knowing Jeanie as an individual, if she does something it will be sufficiently big enough offense that Guano or Mr. Bat poop will show to deal with it or will have to show deal with it
Here an example of Jeanie taking retribution on somebody in public using her Genie powers.
“Cab to the hotel.” I wonder how many rooms are reserved in Jean’s name. Could make for interesting sleeping arrangements. Did she bring her bottle or do they share a bed?
Correct. Which means they either brought the bottle or she’s going to be poofing back and forth to Cocoa Beach every night. My bet is that it’s with them. But after the incident in Georgia, Jeannie probably won’t want to chance getting it stolen again. And considering the she’s in NY with Rodge, the likelihood of problems is considerable.
Agree with you. We also have Belle running around out there too. So it not a matter if there going to be problems, it a matter when, where or what direction that there going to be coming from and who causing the problem and then there are still the unknowns too.
Jean(female) DID tell Rodge to act like Jean(Male).
Problem is Jean (Female) is supposed to be Jean’s (Male) cousin. At least, that’s the cover story.
So naturally, it would complicate things.
Where did you get that? I don’t recall them ever coming up with a cover story, or even mentioning it.
Though I am sure that Jean would prefer that to whatever Rodge would come up with!
Ever hear of kissing cousins?
@LeadFootRT:
From this very Webcomic ages ago, whenever anyone not in the know asks who ” Jeanie” is, Both Jean and Neil say she’s Jean’s cousin.
It’s why Belle thinks Jeanie is Jean’s cousin.
Well, they did not say they were using that as an excuse this time. But I guess it could be assumed that they might use the same one this time as well.
Ideally Jean would learn from this incident.
Ideally.
There’s no pleasing some people! 🙂
A Nessman from Cincinnati? The sitcom ties grow more tangled.
One has to wonder if Jean’s dad is named Les. (Another WKRP reference.)
Of course, if the dad’s dead, then that would be no Les, no more. 😉

Who could forget the 3-time winner of the Buckeye Newshawk Awards?
Except in the “Scrooge” episode of WKRP, the Ghost of Christmas Future revealed that Les was a Republican leader in the U.S. Congress. (And married to Jennifer?)
I caught that too! Nice!
LOL, method acting.
Make up your mind–is he supposed to act like Jean or take his hand off her ass?
I know, right? Jeanie can be so difficult to figure out, sometimes…
don’t thou mean djinni?
Ah, Rodge. Truly a one-track mind. 🙂
Yes, Rodger has a one-track mind, but, he need to remember that Jeanie a Genie and she de-rail him if he tries any funny business. But, Rodger more like Jean, but, he can’t get on base with other girls. At least until Belle show up, which I have no doubt she will and then all hell going to break loose. With Jeanie, just being an observer, which will get her mad.
To be fair, Rodge knows how “Jean” acts. *eyebrow wiggle*
LOL, that’s great xD
She is a little inconsistent isn’t she, she asked Rouge to act like Jean, and when he does, she suddenly doesn’t want it anymore
Kind of remind you of how Jean asked Neil to act like Jean with Belle? And Neil did a great job!
HEY WAIT A MINUTE!!! Robert NEVER answered that question! (we never found out how Neil satisfied Belle)
@mnmega: It was kind of obvious from what Belle said. Neil treated her like a human being, instead of a piece of meat. No wonder she was so thrilled with him.
How’s he gonna get in character if he doesn’t put his hand on her ass?
I can see it now: Here’s the next poll –
Who makes the best (male) Jean?
_ Neil
_ Rodge
_ Jeannie
_ The dummy (No, not Jean, the other dummy.)
She practically told him to do that.
Neil didn’t act like Jean and actually got his/her girlfriend to actually like him again. Rodge does act like Jean and know how this’ll go. Too bad Jean is too self centered to realize she’s being given a taste of her own medicine.
Of course, this will be the final nail for the Jean/Belle relationship if she ever finds out he took his cousin to the ceremony and not his girlfriend. 😛

Except Rodgers is worse and really doesn’t deserve anything.
Yes, I agree with you that Jeanie is selfish and self centered and everything is about him/her and every one else are just useful idiots to her.

3. Some combination of the above.
Doing her “genie number” doesn’t always cause Guano to show up, because it’s not always against the rules.
And you seem to have a very archaic view of women.
Not really, Girls like to be loved and Guys like to be respected. That is also why the scripture say to the man to love the wife and then tell women to honor the man.

It really not a pretty scene!
“If I can’t put my hand on your tush, can I put it on your…”
“NO!”
“Cab to the hotel.” I wonder how many rooms are reserved in Jean’s name. Could make for interesting sleeping arrangements. Did she bring her bottle or do they share a bed?
Jean can’t sleep outside the bottle.
Correct. Which means they either brought the bottle or she’s going to be poofing back and forth to Cocoa Beach every night. My bet is that it’s with them. But after the incident in Georgia, Jeannie probably won’t want to chance getting it stolen again. And considering the she’s in NY with Rodge, the likelihood of problems is considerable.

Either I missed it when it came up before—and I certainly missed it till just now—or this is a sudden new reveal: Jean’s last name: Nessman.
Nope, you’re right, Robert; that’s a tidbit we never had before. Merry Christmas!
Yeah, you guys are the first to notice it. It’s a little plot reveal that CD snuck into this comic.
