So ironic Tina was given the initial limelight as it turns out she was the most resentful about being typecast as Ginger..She was the only one to not return to the reunion movies..
I went back and watched the dueling theme songs (I remember both). Wow the show isn't the same without that UHF static! As a kid I loved the slapstick quality of the show and all the characters were well cast and interesting. Definitely team Mary Ann for me. Probably good it only lasted 3 years, enough to syndicate but avoid the problems of running out of ideas.
Sherwood and the production team sounded on the stingy side to me! That "and the rest" would have made sense if there were four or five more people on the island, but with just the Professor and Mary Ann, it wasn't right to leave them out; glad they changed it!
I love that McDonald's commercial at the very end but what's sad about it is that they're not with us anymore and it is bitter sweet may they all R.I.P😭❤.
mary ann
MaryAnne has always been my favorite
Too bad they dont make shows like this anymore! I always loved Gilligan's Island, Bewitched, Alf, Brady Bunch, My Three Sons and others. Today's shows are just a joke! At least shows back then taught you some sort of life lesson and taught kids respect for their elders. Not today.
I always liked Bob Denvers show after Gilligan, The Good Guys, which starred Denver, Herb Edelman, who later played Bea Arthur's estranged husband Stan on The Golden Girls and Joyce Van Patten sister of Eight Is Enough star Dick Van Patten. This was a lost sitcom
What an awesome human.
Cloris Leachman said her kids used to play with some of the Gilligan's Island props like the rafts when she was on the Mary Tyler Moore Show since both shows were filmed at Studio City. Those items were left over since the MTM Show was filmed after Gilligan's Island was canceled
Bob was a class act and I'd have to go with Mary Ann, Mary Ann, Mary Ann to qoute the Professor and could you imagine going through life as And The Rest. Great video Dave
Aww that was so awesome that he did that!!! I remember my Brother always said MaryAnn was his favorite, he said Ginger was too "high maintenance" lol
That was decent of him to do that for sure.
I laughed and laughed at the commercial. I checked the Internet for my local McDonald's prices. McDouble is now $2.79 in my area. Apparently higher in other places. Thanks for adding that.
I loved Bob.
Back then it was Mary Anne, but now 60 years later I'll go with Mrs. Howell.
Too bad Hollywood didn't recognize true beauty and put Dawn Wells and put her magazine covers
Didn't think I could like him more. And although both women were lively my faborite has always been Mary Ann.
I like Mary Ann better.
He was a loyalist through and through.
There was something about Bob's goodness that resonated on the screen. I heard a story that Tina Louise took the role of Ginger because she was led to believe the show centered around her character (despite the name of the show). But yeah, Mary Ann. I prefer that character.
I saw belly buttons.
I was very young when I watched this show on re-runs. I loved it along with Get Smart. I was definitely in the Mary Ann camp–100%!
The answer to the old question is: You date Ginger, but you marry Mary Ann. By the way that is a very funny commercial.
The entertainment industry has always been full of inflated egos and what’s in it for me attitudes. You’re romanticizing the past through the eyes of your naive childhood. It was actually worse back then when powerful men were able to get by with much more than they can today. We’ve become a planet of people that froths at the mouth for the next scandalous story about someone famous. When a good deed story about a celebrity winds its way around the internet, that story often gets dismissed as them seeking attention or bragging or with their money, they could have done much more.
The standards in Hollywood have improved little by little over the decades. It’s us who have become more and more jaded.
My favorite Gillian's Island episode was the one where Phil Silvers was a producer and they gang put on a musical of Hamlet.
