R.I.P. Gilligan

actually Ginger was not a Bimbo...she did not sleep with anyone on the Island, she was just sexy. She actually got along with her fellow castaways and seemed to do the chores when asked. Mary Anne was just more approachable and did most of the cooking - not afraid of hard work as she grew up on a farm in Kansas.

anyway, It makes me wonder which kind of woman men want in life....Ginger's or Mary Anne's?

Ginger, for me

Good question so here's an honest answer. We want a chick like Mary Anne at home. We also want a Ginger on the side to be porking in secret.

I would choose Ginger, because you can't coach gorgeous, but you can teach a work ethic.

Watching it certainly was.

First of all, Mary Anne was gorgeous. She had it all.

Secondly, you're not going to coach any high society, high maintenance bimbo to do anything resembling work.

And not only was Ginger a bimbo, but she was a tease. No, they're not contradictory.

How was Ginger "a tease"? Periodically she would need to turn on the charm for the good of the group, but it was what they say, "using your assets."

When they needed to convince someone to help them off the island, they never sent Mary Anne for the task. Think about it.

She teased a lot of the men who straggled on the island. Wrongway Peachfuzz thought he was getting lucky. So did those Russian Cosmonauts. I never saw anyone swinging in the hammock with her. She also put it on Gilligan all the time to get her way. Remember the nuts that made you remember? Ginger was a tease, a bimbo and more than a dozen times teased Gilligan and Skipper for her own, personal gain.

Yeah, they never used Mary Anne, and they never got off either, now did they? Think about THAT.

You're just projecting your inadequacies on Ginger because deep down, you know you can't snag the hottie.

Losers make excuses and winners f___ the prom queen.

Hooking up with Mary Anne would be like kissing your sister.

You probably like it like that.

I don't have a sister. Even if I did, I wouldn't want an imbred kissing her. By the way, go see someone about your incestual tendencies.

They weren't suppose to get off the island - the show would have ended.

I think Ginger was just using her best qualities to make life enjoyable as possible while on the island, and often they sent her to "tease" so they could get information from island guests.

Mary Anne is the girl you want to take home to momma, but Ginger, she is the girl that boys dream about......

Dawn Wells (Mary Anne) was a stunner on Gilligan's Island. Nobody else came close to her on the cast in terms of attractiveness.

Mary Anne aged much better than Ginger.

Gah! Guys don't DO that. I thought Bob Denver died today!
