I just found out that Dawn Wells (Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island and many other movies and shows) died in december of Covid 19. Mary Ann was considered a great role model by many parents that brought their kids up watching the show. Dawn Wells herself was consider a great role model for many aspiring actresses.

Thank you dawn for creating such a wonderful character in a much beloved show.

(I googled her name and found no post on this, if there exist one, sorry for creating a new one).

I loved Gilligan's Island as a kid (@Tuffty, it was shown in the UK long long ago),
Best theme tune ever! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfR7qxtgCgY

RIP Dawn aka Mary Ann. :(

Here is one that has the ending as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MocPzJleg8
The first part does not list Dawn Wells or Russell Johnson (Professor Roy Hinkley)

A little trivia about the intro. IF you look closely, you can see a flag at half mast in the background. This was for President Kennedy.

I can't say I've ever seen that show but saying that it's a show I've wanted to see for a long long time. Just can't get it in the UK.

Anyway always a sad loss when a great actress dies. I'm sure she will be missed by all her fans.

R.I.P. Dawn.


You never watched Gilligan's Island :O :P

Wonderful show, wonderful actor -R.I.P


- I read the other day an British actor Johnny Briggs died, he was well know for his role on Coronation St as a businessman Mike Baldwin. Not sure if it was Covid related - R.I.P
