She Played Mary Ann,

In 1964, Wells landed the role of a lifetime in Gilligan’s Island, in which she played Kansas farm girl Mary Ann Summers. The actress appeared in all 98 episodes of the beloved sitcom, and after the series ended in 1967, she reprised her role in various reunion specials and a cartoon spinoff. Wells also appeared in three Gilligan’s Island reunion movies, Rescue from Gilligan’s Island, The Castaways on Gilligan’s Island, and The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan’s Island.

And only Ginger is left now. They fell off faster than the original Stat Trek cast. Just another depressing sign of how fricking old I'm getting :(.
You get to get old, if you're lucky :)

Like Bette Davis said: "Old age is no place for pussies."

lol... it was a perennial question for fifty years: Ginger or Mary Ann, Ginger or Mary Ann, Ginger or Mary Ann?

Me? Mary Ann. Always. RIP bae.

"Ginger" could walk through beach sand in stiletto high heels better than any drag queen, and smoothly charm your pants off, but, "Mary Ann" was the innocent "girl next door" you would want to take home to meet your parents.

R.I.P, Dawn.

I loved the Show, if only in repeats.

Where else would passengers, on a 3 hour boat tour take so many posessions.

The Howls , were multi Millionaires, taking a charter boat tour, though they had millions of dollars in their suitcase
As well as loads of Jewelry for Mrs Howel

Ginger, had dozens of costume changes, for a 3 hour tour

Poor Mary Ann, only really had the one outfit, though she did look great in it

The Professor, Gilligan and the Skipper, pretty much, just had the clothes on their backs

lol... I had a few "next door girls." My parents knew them but not what we got up to in private. ;)
