    Hey time xx, I do remember this show..I loved it! I was about 7 when it was being aired, and I recall being so intrigued and borderline obsessed! It's hard for me to remember details of the individual episodes. All I really remember is the title, and bits and pieces, and of course the fact that Ann Jillian was so awesome and I wanted to be just like her! Even as a 7 yr old girl, I used to hope that somehow the two of them could be together forever. This show, as brief as it was (only 13 episodes), at least in my mind, will remain one of those relics like "V" that need to be sought out, burned onto disc, and stored in the sacred home archives, protected by a glass case and an alarm system. LOL

    Just wanted to see if anyone remembered a old TV show called "Jennifer Slept Here"? This series focuses on teenaged Joey Elliot and his family, who move into the home of the late Jennifer Farrell (played by the beautiful Ann Jillian). She still walks the halls, but is a ghost, and is only seen by Joey. I was a big fan of this show! When I was a kid, I was in love with Ann Jillian! She was my dream girl. I wanted to move into a haunted house also! This was a great show that never really got a chance. It never ranked above #25 in The Nielsen Ratings. So the it was canceled. Ann Jillian went on to do other movies and TV shows. NBC has no plans of a Jennifer Slept Here DVD release, but it sure was a great show!

    I am also waiting for Nick at Nite or one of these types of things to re-broadcast this show. It was rather silly, but a great concept!! Of course, I was in the 3rd grade at the time, so I thought the boy was cute. But I think many people have watched shows for lesser reasons.

    I used to love this show and wish someone would re-run it somewhere (it didn't last very long so I guess you can't sell a series with just a few episodes). The plot is an old one from the movies (Ghost refuses to leave house and bonds with new owner). "Topper" and "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir" had already been made into TV shows but this update is sexy cute. Ann Jillian (in her prime) played the ghost of a movie actress with the body of Marilyn Monroe and the attitude of Mae West. The 13-ish son of the family that moves into her home is the only one to see her and he develops a friendship with her as she eventually becomes a guide to his adolescent life. Jillian is sexy in an endless succession of Hollywood fashions and her relationship with the boy is cute (he's just old enough to appreciate a gorgeous ghost but too young to be dangerous).
