Description:  The "Jeannie" cartoon is a Hanna-Barbera animated series from 1973, based on the live-action "I Dream of Jeannie" sitcom, but with a new plot centered on a teenage surfer named Corey Anders. In this version, the younger, red-haired genie Jeannie, who uses her ponytail to cast spells, is found by Corey and falls in love with him. She is joined by the bumbling genie-in-training Babu and Corey's best friend Henry, leading to comical adventures involving school and dating.

Premise: Corey Anders, a teenage surfer, discovers a bottle on the beach and releases Jeannie, who becomes his companion and tries to help him with his high school life.

Characters:

Jeannie: A younger, red-haired genie with a ponytail that she uses to perform magic, unlike the original series' blonde Jeannie who blinked.

Babu: A junior genie who is incompetent and causes trouble with his magic, often saying, "Yapple Dapple!".

Corey Anders: The high school student who becomes Jeannie's master and love interest.

Henry Glopp: Corey's best friend.

S. Melvin Farthinghill: A snooty rival to Corey who often gets in the way of Corey and Jeannie.

Humor: The humor is geared towards a younger audience, focusing on teen-like situations and magical mishaps caused by Jeannie and Babu's inexperience.
