I grew up watching this and still do. It's crazy how fast life goes by. We are only here a short time.

As of today, December 30th 2020, Dawn Wells has passed away. RIP Mary Ann.

I met Dawn Wells years ago in the airport. She was so kind, and just as sweet as I had imagined. Such a nice woman.

Man, this makes me think how young I was when I first watched Gillian’s Island and how old I am now.

Alan Hale Jr. was such a class act, even as he was in the hospital dying he took time to visit kids in the cancer ward.

Unfortunately,we all age and pass on. It's sad,but we should remember everyone for all the laughs and enjoyment we got from these classic shows. God bless them all for making me laugh and the wonderfully entertaining stories. I think we all long for a Gilligan's Island somewhere in our lives.

These people always made us laugh, and my wife and adult kids laugh along side us when we watch the reruns. I am 75, and my own youthful looks are long gone as well as theirs. So what. They were with us then, and made life fun, and now they too are old or have passed away. We have our memories. Comedy was wholesome back then, not vulgar and jaded like today's shows. Memories. Memories.

Truly a great review. Gilligan's Island was a zany comedy that everybody loved. May those who have passed Rest in Peace.

I was eight when Gilligan's Island started. There are many great memories I have of the show, and I very rarely missed an episode, come hell or high water. RIP to all of those involved in this wonderful series who are no longer with us & thank you for the nice post!

Dawn Wells is still pretty at eighty. She aged remarkably well.

Dawn Wells R I P with Bob Denver & Jim Backus & Alan Hale The Professor shall be missed

R.I.P Dawn Wells COVID 19 just took her in the last days of 2020.

That brought me back to when television was wholesome, Mary Ann will always be my favorite personality but great show.

Sad but enjoyable. Brought back memories of a happier time. Thankyou.

For those who might be interested, here are the full cast names of the seven castaways: Willy Gilligan, Skipper Jonas Grumby, Thurston Howell III, Eunice Wentworth “Lovey” Howell, Professor Roy Hinkley, Ginger Grant, Mary Ann Summers

Dawn Wells: a shining example of how to grow more beautiful with age!

So great to see all the old cast and character actors --some real great character actors in there! Brings a huge smile to my face! Dawn Wells will never get old--just as lovely and sweet as ever!

I named my youngest daughter MARYANN, yes, after Dawn Wells character! She was the epitome of sweetness, kindness and beauty!

Dawn Wells! OMG! SO BEAUTIFUL

Oh mary ann thanks for being such a little doll.My whole teenage years revolved around you.Nice to see tou still doing well and still beautiful.

Dawn wells...still as beautiful as ever

I loved this show as a kid! They were all still around when I was born in 1980. How time passes. These talented souls will be missed!

Mary Ann still looks good for her age. This show used to be a favorite of my brother, and me back in the day! Wish they would show reruns on TV Land. I miss that show. I miss my brother more. But I’d like to watch it again to bring back good memories.

We all grew up watching this and other shows like this over and over. They are eternally a part of us. They live on in our memories but I also feel so sad to see so much time passed and so many gone before us. My world feels a bit smaller and lonelier.

Maryann...still gorgeous!

One of my most favorite shows.I still stop and watch now.It came on between 3 and 330.I would stop and go home just to watch. Everyone made fun but it never stopped me.Good shows are gone. Thanks for the reruns.

I still enjoy watching Gilliagans Island to this day!! Great memories!

Skipper, the professor and Gilligan were the only ones who wore the same clothes every show.

Mary Ann was my favorite and I thought she was so beautiful when I was a boy growing up in the 60's and 70's. It was funny show

I just met Dawn Wells who played 'Mary-Ann,' last week at the 'Orange County' Strawberry festival in Garden-Grove, CA. She looked beautiful and radiant, couldn't believe she's 80. Looks like only 50. She was VERY nice, funny, and VERY warm and sincere, and seemed to really enjoy interacting with all the fan's who flocked around her ' Autograph-Booth.' I got my photo taken with her, gave her a hug, and got her Autograph on a sexy '8×11. WOW. 😎👌

Russell Johnson was one of the kindest, sweetest men ever to every one of his fans. I know, and still have the signed photos from him to my disabled son. :) RIP, Russell -

These things make me so sad, yet I continue to watch them when they come up in my recommendations. So true is that song: Everybody Dies Young.

Beautiful memories,...they brought us joy, watching their great work...👍

So very sad to lose Dawn Wells - MaryAnne today, December 30, 2020 from complications of Covid19. It epitomizes this year. She aged so well physically and was still so sweet, encouraging us to have a light heart!

Wow Dawn Wells still looks good

Maryann was the prettiest girl on the show!! Still looks good!!😘

Always a haunting experience... so many thanks from a 45year old that remembers sooo many of these wonderful actors that I watched growing up.... Life is a finite thing.. do your best and be kind to one another... I sure hope I'll be smiling past 70 like quite a few featured can... beautiful music too... as always.. perfect!!

It was one of many favored shows of mine. Great memories when times were still good. Thank you for the memories.

Loved giligans island as a child. Now im 55 it goes by fast. Fear God and obey . i love my fellow man so i warn them.

kurt russell always has such a great smile and still looks great and so does his wife, goldie hawn......

It just touches my heart in a sad yet heart warming way to see these vids with these memorable actors and actresses from my childhood.

Good bye and rest in peace to Dawn Wells (Mary Ann). She and 'the rest' who passed who brought us so much laughter and joy will be missed but never forgotten.

RIP DEAR ONES, YOU BROUGHT ME SUCH JOY 40 + YEARS AGO 🎈♥️⚘⚘⚘

I'm only 13, and yet, I still watch this show... it's sad to know that half the people I loved on that show are now gone...

I watch it every Sunday 3 hours of still love this show

I miss these people so much ,Dawn Wells is so Georgeous I was a little guy looking at this show 👍👍

I guess this settles the Ginger/Maryann debate🤔

Gosh. Many days after school as a kid I watched this show. I'm 57 now and probably can tell you every episode. My all time favorite episode was the one with the "Honeybees" I remember reading a quote "Time is free, but it's priceless"

all these characters baby-sat me as a child in the 80's on Australian tv. i had no idea half of them had passed by then. it was a good time to be a kid 🙌🏼

We are like the flowers on a field, we blossom and give radiance of beauty. Then we wither away to be planted again, somewhere in the Universe.

OMG I SO LOVED THIS AS A CHILD THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE MEMORY

Miss Wells is still beautiful

Phew! Ginger, man that’s rough 🙀

Larry Storch is 96 and still kicking!

Dawn Wells is beautiful in every way,and that will never change.😍

Me and my brother ( Michael) watch Gillian nice memories... Miss you Michael😔

Everyone gets older. There’s no stopping time. Most of these actors and actresses are gone now

I LOVED this poignant and moving tribute. I particularly enjoyed all of the guest stars, and seeing how their careers blossomed, and the beautiful body of work they all left behind. Thank You Gillian's Island for being there for my childhood.

Still have a crush on Dawn Wells.

Vitto Scotti was on everything from Bewitched, Hogan,s Heroes, Munsters to Who,s the Boss.

So much fun and laffts and i say to all Giligans island fans we had the best TV shows ever...R.I.P.

Dawn Wells still looks beautiful.. and it looks all natural too.

I loved watching this show in the mid-1960's when I was a child!

Man Long Live 60's 70's Just good old TV ✌❤🇨🇦

I remember watching many reruns of the show in the 70's. When the show started in 1964 I was 4 years old. I still love the show.

Thank you for remembering all the guest actors as well as the main cast. RIP to many of them. Thanks for the laughs.

I loved all of these actors, such fond memories of them and my childhood.

TV of yesteryear was much more enjoyable and better than the crap they show on TV today. It made sense and had a storyline. Also it was clean fun. Something for the whole family to watch. Gilligans Island, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, Beverly Hillbillies, It's About Time, Nanny and the Professor, Munsters, Adams Family, Green Acres, Petticoat Junction, Brady Bunch, etc....(60's and 70's, and even the 50's) these shows still remain fresh in the minds of us who grew up with them or saw the Re runs for the first time in the late 70's / early 80's. Or know what they are. Even the times were different and there was an innocence about them. Unlike today where the world is moving so fast with all these electronic devices and insanity of it all. Some of us do wish we could go back in time to the era we felt most comfortable with and loved. I myself? I don't belong in this era. It's too difficult and crazy. We never had to worry about Terrorism, mass shootings, Covid 19, and the crap we have today back in the late 1900's.

That was well put together! Thanks for sharing! Still love watching Gilligan’s Island! 🌴

RIP to those Casts who are No more with us ❤️

Hello Ms. Wells nice to see you are doing well. Thanks for the memories!!

Sadly, Dawn Wells , passed away today, Dec. 30th 2020 in Hollywood, CA from complications of covid19. She was 81. You will be missed, Donna. RIP...⚘

No one can beat father time. But Marry-ann/ Dawn Wells sure had the genetics to battle strong & defy aging for real long time..

Now: Marianne she grew old gracefully!!!)(;

Maryanne = natural beauty - everlasting Ginger = nothing without Maybelline - and it shows

One of my favorite childhood shows.

Oh, wow! I watched this show every day after school, in my child hood years. Made my heart sad to see that most have passed on. Thank you for sharing.

Dawn Welles still looks fantastic and Ginger, Dawn Welles still looks fantastic!

This was probably one of the most depressing videos I’ve ever watched in my life. Realizing that a lot of these guys passed away just a tiny bit after they did the reunion on the Late Show in 1988. Thank God for that reunion show. It was the last time I’m going to guess many of them had gotten together. Sad, as you can still catch the show in reruns. The crazy thing is, the reruns of any show sort of lock those people in time and you expect them to live forever like your memories of first watching the shows. Thank you goes out to the entire cast for the great three years you gave this world this show. You have to wonder how many millions of people you have made smile since the very day the show came on the air until now and who knows how many years in the future.

Oh I forgot to say Dawn Wells represented one of our States in Miss America💖💜💟💝💗💘💙

I love watching Gilligan's Island probably it was most good show ever as about 16 to 17 when I was watching that and watch it right up till the end of that got off the island so sad to see half of the cast of passed away my regards go to all of them.. 💖💖💖💕💜💋.

Marry Ann, what else needs be said.

Now I understand, years and years later, why my 6th grade English teacher, Mrs. Becton, made our whole class memorize and recite before the class, the speech in a Shakespeare Play, "All the World's a Stage."

I’m 58 now and I had a mad crush on ginger,fantasies galore,thanks for posting to see how they have all faired

The music that accompanies your videos is perfect: a combination of eerie, sad and mellow. Thanks for doing these videos!

Thank you so much, that was put together well. I hope they all make it to heaven.

I was young back then too. Now I'm 65. Still working and enjoying life with my wife of 40+ years married. She's a real sweetheart!

What is Dawn Wells secret for aging "gracefully" & looking great at 80eightysomething! I watched this show in "Re-runs" as a kid, in the very early 70s, when coming home from school. Although it was on only for 3three years. Watching it now on the "nostalgia channels" reminds me of my youth and makes me feel happy!

I had such a huge crush on the professor when I was a little girl LOL I missed this show ,

Best show ever. God bless the living and the deceased.

So many familiar faces from my childhood. Makes me very sad to know most are gone. Some, not even remembered. All RIP.

Thank you all for the memories and RIP. One more thing , I always thought it was cool the way the skipper wore his hat ! ( small side note )

Damn only Dawn Wells and Tina Louise are the only surviving original cast members. R.I.P. to all the talented stars who have left us

Thank you.. cast of Gilligan's Island for being in my childhood.

Is it just me or does anyone else ever get sad watching these types of videos? It makes me realize we all will get old and die 😭😭. Man I don't want to die

I grew up with that show.so precious.good memories.thankyou

Seen every show and alot of reruns! So many laughs,thanks!

Dawn Wells didn't age much she still look good for her age she doesn't look like she's 80 years old she's been drinking that water from the fountain of youth I see

I can’t even watch this show without crying knowing that most of the cast has passed away 😭 rip ❤️
