yeah it is odd and last i checked such engagements are forbidden for genies unless they have been freed by there master which of course means they no longer have there powers
Neil really needs to get that girl a good dictionary and encyclopedia set to bring her up to date, not the “magic box”. It ain’t workin’. And I have to agree with Araceli in the third panel. Just how many cleaning detergents does a person need?
Oh, and the poll is missing an option regarding Araceli staying. You should have included “Oh dear lord, I hope so!” as a choice.
Unfortunately, the series continued on for about a half-season. so LOTS came afterward. And CD is right, there were two TV movies, the first of which tried to reboot the series by negating the entire original series by the end, and the second of which ignored the first.
Of course, the original series had a BIG continuity change anyway. At first, genie was an ordinary girl turned into a genie and imprisoned in the bottle by an evil djinn. Then, with the third season, she’d always been a genie, had several sisters who were also genies, a mother who was a genie, etc.
Sorry, long-time comic book fan who notices continuity changes like that.
My biggest problem, as with “Bewitched,” was that there weren’t enough women transformed in the series. Of course, that’s just my kink.
Actually it would be funny if CD could work one of the characters actually jumping a shark into the story somewhere. Like Jean doing it to Neil out of jealousy or something.. or to one of the kids, none of whom get the reference afterwards…. Aaaaayyyyyy!
It will be interesting to see Neil and Jean’s reactions to her listening to the magic box, and for that matter finding out how long a certain cute redheads going to be attending high school and dating lessons.
As for your trying to get your house back in order after nearly a year away it could be a lot worse. Just this week someone was telling me about a customs officer who came back to find that she’d declared legally dead and gypsies had moved into her home. Apparently an eviction notice was necessary to get it back.
Wow, she’s been stuck in her bottle for a long time hasn’t she? You’d think that an organization of all powerful beings would have thought of keeping all genies up to date on what’s going on in the world every few centuries or so. 🙂
Uh oh this doesn’t look good. Curse you modern day television!
This can’t be good!
No this isn’t good. Although I think Neil likes Araceli, would be kind of funny if “Jean” gets jealous about their “engagement”.
If “Jean” get’s jealous about this, he, or better she, is really a girl now.
love the bruce almighty reference XD
Television–destroyer of worlds! Bane of civilizations everywhere! 😀
One should always make themselves understood to avoid such predicaments.
But then again, where would the fun be if we did? XD
Oh dear…Muahahahahaha
Still I find it odd that Araceli does not find it odd that a master wishes to marry his genie
yeah it is odd and last i checked such engagements are forbidden for genies unless they have been freed by there master which of course means they no longer have there powers
Which defeats the purpose of of marrying a genie.
Is that a look shock or excitement in the last panel? I can’t tell.
excitment shes smileing
Show of hands if you think that TV is possessed.
What do you mean “…That TV”? They’re ALL possessed!!!

I think a joke was lost on most, has anyone noticed that cleaning commercials don’t say anything about adding WATER to the cleaning detergent?
Good lord, you’re… wait, I think… you know what, I have absolutely no idea. I don’t watch TV as much as I used to.
Damn you Doctor Laura! (or Oprah, Dr. Phil, Judge Judy….)
Oh, poor Neil. Jeanie would never fall for something like this.
Bruce Almighty reference
technically its not a reference considering she is watching tv so she really is watching Bruce almighty but still funny
Don’t forget, it was when Tony married Jeannie on “I Dream of Jeannie” that the show officially jumped the shark!
The Marriage of Tony and Jeannie was the climax the whole series was heading to. What else would come afterwards?
Two tv movies?

I can just hear Neil now “Note to self finally explain what a television is!!!”
Of course only AFTER chaos has hit, but of course!!! =)

This . . . will not end well. not well at all!

Oh lord, this is gonna be hilarious!
wow this does not look good at all!
