I must say, of all the television shows I would have expected Barbara Eden of I Dream of Jeanie fame to be guest starring on, George Lopez would be pretty darn near the bottom of the list. But George Lopez is the show that Barbara Eden will be guest starring on as a housekeeper who does just about anything but clean house!
Barbara has joined the cast in the role of Ruth, George and Angie’s (CONSTANCE MARIE) new housekeeper, but one who is not all that interested in keeping house. George got the idea from a friend, who had hired a housekeeper who was great with kids, but left the house in a mess.
“I think she just loves to do for him,” Barbara says. “She just wants to cook, bake and feed him. I feel that way about my dog. Some people like to nurture. That is just the way she is. She just wants to see him eat and be happy. She really doesn’t want to do housework. It isn’t her thing. My mother was a little like that.”
No specific airdate has been announced, other than “early 2007″ so my bet is that they plan to air the Barbara Eden episode during February sweeps.
