Dawn Wells was one of the sexiest women alive back in the 60s and 70s and she still looked amazing into the 80s and 90s. What made her even better was that she was genuinely a wonderful person. She had top notch looks and the personality which is a rare combo. Amazing person! She will be missed very much!
That is nonsense about Russell Johnson saying that's the first time he every felt in danger. Who made up that story? He flew nearly 50 combat missions on a bomber in the south Pacific during WWII.

@@ADAPTATION7 I think he was a gunner in a B-25. I saw it on RUclips somewhere. Just look up sumpin' like How Russel Johnson Got His Start or Got Injured or something, you should find.
Russell Johnson was a true American hero in every sense of the word. If I were a movie or television producer, I would have given Mr. Johnson any role he wanted due to his service for our country.
Thanks for posting this, Rick. I, too, was a great fan of "Gilligan's Island." It was just good, fun hokum! I checked Dawn Wells and Russell Johnson's bios on Wiki. Both were married to someone else during the show's run, from 1964 - 1967. Johnson was married to his second wife from 1949 to 1980, her death. They had two children and from all reports he was a devoted husband and father. It's doubtful he would have played around. Dawn Wells was married from 1962 to 1967, the last season of the show. Her marriage was deteriorating at the end and she could have been looking for a fling, but, you're right, it wouldn't have been Russel Johnson. Believe it or not, Dawn Wells is 79 years old and Tina Louise, who played "Ginger," is 84. As noted below, both are the only surviving members of the original cast.
I liked all 7, also. I guess you know that Jerry Van Dyke, Dick Van Dyke's brother, was originally offered the part of Gilligan first. He turned it down, thinking the show would be a dud and went with "My Mother The Car," instead. Of course, as we know, "My Mother The Car" is considered one of biggest flops ever to play on TV. It was a complete failure from start to finish. Jerry Van Dyke said many times in interviews that turning down "Gilligan's Island" was the worst professional mistake he ever made.
Absolutely, a story told by Sherwood Schwartz. Skipper had another popular actor that did not work well for the part. Im going to make a video on these soon
Looking forward to it, Rick. According to Wiki, the Mary Ann part in the pilot was named "Bunny" and played by a Nancy McCarthy. The part was revamped and recast with Dawn Wells. I've heard of that Skipper story, but can't recall the name of the original Skipper. I'm sure you'll clear it all up for us.
The dream skits were very interesting. The charater who was dreaming didn't change in the dream, but everyone else did take a slight variation. I laughed so hard when in a dream skit, the Professor told Mary-Ann he woud be a handsome prince if she kissed him. She kissed hm and nothing happened....(Mary-Ann) You're not a prince! (Professor) Well don't believe everthing you hear sweety!!! heheheh
The Professor was a serious character. The only time that he acted silly was in a dream sequence where Mary Ann was supposed to kiss him and he would turn into a young prince. He did not turn into a young prince.
I always loved the dream sequences; it gave us a chance to see all of the gang in different outfits and personas. And to get a peek at some of their versatility. When I was a kid growing up in the late 60s and early 70s (watching reruns, of course), I was SO in love with the Professor! And Gilligan, too, a little. But mostly, the Professor and I LOVED that particular episode where he kissed Mary Ann and was able to show off his comedic chops a little bit. Heh!
I Hate You, I Hate You , I Hate You - you make me relive all these childhood memories of when I got stranded on Gilligan's Island and I had to choose.. Ginger, Mary Ann, Ginger, Mary Ann, The Monkey, Ginger, Mary Ann, Ginger, Mary Ann.... and I couldn't choose and the monkey gave me ring worm Twice and then I had the choose do I sub to this Oracle of 70's sitcom enlightenment or do I go back to watching X Files and dreaming that the Heliocentric model was really real.. well No.. I couldn't take it anymore.. a form of Stockholm syndrome so I caved.. I subbed. - I submit to your Island expertise.. I love you.
Always enjoyable pices of history. thanks Ric. I watched the movie based on the cast and according to the actor who played Gilligan, (Bob Denver) he threatened to leave the show if the Professor and Mary Ann were not acknowledged at the beginning of the show like the rest of the crew. He didn't like when they sang "and the rest" and it was Bob Denver that insisted they be included in the song. Cool piece of trivia if its true.
Thanks for sharing. I thought they did a fantastic job too of adding “the Professor and Mary Ann” here on Gilligan’s Isle!! It’s amazing how they originally didn’t think of this line to begin with.
As always a great job! Much appreciated! I remember my friends telling me that the Profession and Mary Ann were actually man and wife! I wanted to let you know that I appreciate your words of encouragement and the importance of staying positive . It was definitely what I needed to hear and I believe that God works through us when folks need a reminder that we should not give in to fear. Thank you Rick for your words of encouragement. It does make a difference. All the best to you and yours.😀
Hey Rick, congratulations on over 9,200 subscribers! Thanks for the Gilligans Island video. It reminded me of back in the 70's when my buddies and I would cruise E Street in San Bernardino in a 58 Edsel and sing the Gilligans Islands theme ( opening and closing credits) as loud as we could. That's for reminding me of my crazy youth. Chris
If the both of them where single at the time then why not. Dawn Wells eventually married this funny-looking dude most likely because of his Connections in Hollywood according to his last name.
Ric On the Gilligan's Island episode You've Been Disconnected what was the name of the actress who answered the phone at the Bijou Theater This Actress did not have Her name listed in the credits at the end of the show Do you know anything about this Actress ?? Also I hope that you will decide to do videos on these actors: Skip Young Neil J Schwartz Skip Young played Wally Plumstead on The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet and Neil J Schwartz played Bag Zombroski on Happy Days On Ozzie and Harriet Wally Plumstead liked to play Practical jokes on Rick and David Nelson On Happy Days Bag Zombroski liked to play Practical jokes on Richie Potsie and Ralph Also did you know that Russell Johnson played Marshall Gib Scott On the show Black Saddle ??
I saw an interview where Dawn repeatedly said he was a "Hunk". I definitely think she liked him, but as a married man, she was "friend-zoned" which happens quite a bit in life due to circumstances.
Great job...not only here, but all your videos. Excellent research, very thorough. I'm a big fan on Tongo/Duke actor Denny Miller and an expert on Episode 21. If you ever do a vid on Denny I'd be happy to supply you with info, trivia, behind the scenes stuff. Let me know and keep the videos coming!
Nah, didn't happen, but Dawn Wells thought the Professor was hot. Straight from her own mouth on a Fox Interview about a book she wrote. She said it was too bad that they both were married at that time.
They felt like "the rest" because the actress who played Ginger didn't want anyone listed after her, so for the first season or so, Mary Ann and the Professor weren't mentioned in the theme song.
I think the real answer is that only they know. Lots of people hook up and nobody knows but them. If nobody gets caught or pregnant it’s a secret for the most part.
Rick, you have one of the best pod casts on youtube. thanks for sharing the info on Gilliagans Island and i love lucy. Keep up the great stuff. Oh love the stuff on the three stooges as well. You are the best
It`s sweet that they were such good friends and that the cast in general seemed so close. Nice to hear that about the cast of a show as opposed to the other way around. well done rick.
Not. true. folks 2 of the cast members did have brief fling..late great Bob Denver claimed he had a quickie with Tina louise.aka.Ginger u ddnt see that .. 👀 coming Tina denys it but Bob claims it did indeed happen.. a quickie in dressing.room.between ginger an gilligan .. Wow..
If there had been a "friends with benefits" thing between Russell and Dawn, who could blame him? She definitely gave me thoughts of being a dirty little boy!
I always thought they'd make a good couple on the show. I thought they'd get together if the show went in that direction. Then I can see Gilligan and Ginger getting together and having a relationship where she bosses him around all the time and he's ok with it. I always felt bad that the Skipper would be left out of any relationship though. But maybe one of those surrounding island native women would show up again and he'd marry her. I thought he had the sensitivity to make something like that work.
Hi Rick, Another great video. Can you maybe start a weekly I Love Lucy trivia? Maybe break it up into Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced knowledge so everyone can have a chance. No need for give aways. Just for fun. Also, do you have videos about The Andy Griffith Show or Carol Burnett? Another couple of greats!
Gilligan's Island is one of my VERY favorites! Wonderful, creative, fun writers!! They had so many clever details in each episode!!! I don't know how they delivered their lines with a straight face! Love every minute of Gilligan's Island. Thank you for including it on your RUclips channel. Bob Backus (Nephew of Jim Backus) is a skilled Lapidary at the Gem & Mineral shows i go to. He works with stones and gems. He and his wife, Leilani, and Daughter, Jamie sale them and know everything there is to learn about gems, and fossils. They enjoy their work and teaching us how and where to find beautiful spheres, crystals, fossils, etc. The gem and mineral shows are in Ventura county, Ca. Thank you Rick for your FUN videos!! :)
I never really got into Gilligans Island like that I watched it sometimes as a kid Now as an adult I get "it's tv" but there are just too many holes in logic for me to enjoy it If it was only going to be a 3 hour tour why did The Howells bring all their clothes their money and jewels and Mr Howell's teddy bear? And how was it all in perfect condition after a boat crash? Things like that
T Nisoff I remember that when tv ended at 2 in the morning and started again at like 7 and the American Flag and National Anthem played on a trumpet in between lol We were fancy Shmancy though we had UHF lol
I just watched a video of Dawn Wells with pics from her 20's to present …. she is now 81 years young and still has that cute look !! I don't know how but she does not look over 80 …. she still looks hot !!

Crazy to think only the girls are left. They all got along so well, And I liked all 7

The Professor tapped that. No doubt about it.
Gilligan and lovey sure did it
Besides Lynda Carter, Dawn Wells was tops for me.
Same here. Wells is a honey pot.
Lynda Carter. Bah.
Russell Johnson did a couple of the Twilight Zone episodes
I love the one where he played a scientist with a time machine, who bought a murderous outlaw from the old West into the present.
Then there was the other one where he goes back and tries to prevent Lincoln's assassination but Booth drugs him.
He played on several westerns also...

No phone, no light, no deep kissing. Not a single night in bed.
If rumors of "the rest" went 'round, Rick's RUclips has them dead!
Ginger or Mary-Ann?
Mary-Ann, no hesitation😄
Sphinx Rising
Ginger who ??
Maryann by a country mile.
I think the best answer is both.
On a deserted island. Both.
Mary ann or Jeanie? Dawn or Barbara? I love both!
Absolutely love Gillian too! Lol
Have any vids on other shows from back then? Like Munsters, Andy Griffith, Beverly Hillbillies, etc?

There were a lot of episodes with Mary Ann kissing Gilligan. You would think maybe they had a bit of hankie pankie..

im a phd ..hell yea i ll be hanky pankying the ladys if im there a few years..and im a nice christian boy
youre funny.. the professor was a great straight man.. hes a great actor.. westerns ..good guys bad guys.. comedys.. hes pretty tough
johnny... yeah right... A nice worldly christian boy. BUT... not a Saint.
Wasn't Russell Johnson in the movie THEM as a telephone line repair man?
I checked IMDB, and he is not on the cast list. He was, however, in the movie "Attack of the Crab Monsters".
And the fact that they were both married at the time.
15 years on that island and no one got laid?
Now I have a new couple to ship lol

Wait, what? 3:08 o_O

I just watched a video of Dawn Wells with pics from her 20's to present …. she is now 81 years young and still has that cute look !! I don't know how but she does not look over 80 …. she still looks hot !!
Mary Ann was so much prettier than Ginger
Ginger had red hair, tall, pretty skin, sexy mole etc etc
again Rick always great footage and i always enjoy your great job.. :)
Thanks Darek!
