I Dream of Jeannie was a sitcom that ran from 1965 to 1970. In 1982, Suzanne Vega wrote "Tom's Diner" and released the recording in 1987. In 1990, the group DNA remixed it and the song became a hit. Later in 1990, Mark Jonathan Davis did a parody version called "Jeannie's Diner" about the '60s sitcom for The Dr. Demento Show. In 1994, Nick at Night used the song to promote their reruns of I Dream of Jeannie. Are you still with me? Here is that 1994 promo that was almost thirty years in the making, presented to you thirty years later. (via Laughing Squid)
