I Dream of Jeannie (TV Series) My Master, the Spy (1967) User Reviews

Two places at once

[kevinolzak · 7/10 · 31 October 2016]

"My Master, the Spy" opens with Jeannie blinking Tony to Paris to enjoy a soufflé for lunch, while actually attending a meeting with General Peterson at NASA. Dr. Bellows receives a call from General Rafael (Louis Mercier), reporting that Major Nelson is in Paris, while he's at that moment looking right at Tony. A photograph makes the doctor wonder if the man at NASA is an imposter, so he buys a bugging device from an expert (Benny Rubin), who successfully used one to catch his wife! There had already been a spy entry the first season, "Jeannie and the Kidnap Caper," but this one improves on it by baffling Dr. Bellows yet again. As General Alton, Byron Morrow had played a different general (Moore) in an earlier episode, "Guess What Happened on the Way to the Moon?"

Top Secret Aircraft Revealed In This Episode

This was a wonderful series, however, they should have placed closer attention to the set and the backgrounds.

In this episode Tony and Roger are talking to the General about a bug they found in Tony's office. If you look over Tony's should on the wall behind him you will see a picture of the SR-71 Blackbird spy plane.

In 1967 this was one of the most closely guarded secrets of the day, yet right there on TV for all the world to see is a picture of the aircraft. How can you deny the existence of the aircraft when you broadcast it on TV for the world to see. LOL!!!

So much for continuity. Bigger question is what government agency allowed this picture on the set in the first place? My confidence in our intelligence agencies of the day is well shaken.
