Classic TV sitcom "I Dream Of Jeannie" star Barbara Eden remembers co-star Larry Hagman: He was a 'wonderful rascal.'

The series ran from 1965-1970.  Executive Producer Sidney Sheldon didn't want a blonde actress to play Jeannie (competitor series "Bewitched" featured Samantha, a blonde witch)

Barbara Eden, a blonde, impressed Sheldon so much he changed his course.
