In 1996 Barbara Eden (the "Jeannie") came into town to give a speech at the Kennedy Space Center and then came over here for the naming dedication to the TV show which she was a co-star in. The TV sitcom was set in Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral, but was filmed entirely in Southern California. In 2012 a blue sign was placed under the street name sign to explain the history and theme of the TV series.

I Dream of Jeannie is an American fantasy sitcom television series created by Sidney Sheldon and starring Barbara Eden as a beautiful but guileless 2,000-year-old genie and Larry Hagman as an astronaut with whom she falls in love and eventually marries.
