'is that the one about the genie?'


huge bewitch fan. i really disliked this movie when it first came out. however, it's been in my DVR for almost a year now and i've seen it about 40 times,(guess it grew on me). one scene in particular rubs me the wrong way. now, i know they added this line because the show was/is often confused with, "i dream of jeannie" (another fav of mine). but the scene makes no sense. the neighbor (maria kelly) says, "i love that show, that the one with the genie?". then 15 seconds later sees it playing on tv, (never mind the basket full of crap with bewtiched on it). isabel asks her if she has seen the show, maria kelly says "watch it every night". HOW can you be confused as to what show bewitched is if she watches it every night? i know it's just a movie but it bugs me every time i see that scene. :o)

I also notice that every time. If only they'd had 5-10 people critique the details in the script and clean it up first - it had potential!

Probably mistaken with I Dream Of Jeannie because they were always materializing things out of thin air with ease like a Genie.
