“I Dream Of Jeannie” And “Friends” Connection

John Bennett Perry was the actor who played the owner of the sporting goods store on the “I Dream of Jeannie: 15 Years Later” movie. His son is none other than “Friends” actor Matthew Perry! The fountain featured in the opening sequence of “Friends” was also seen in various episodes of “I Dream of Jeannie.” In fact, that fountain is located just across the street from the Nelson house on what is now Warner Ranch.
