If I could have met one cast member (and I know many of the guys would have loved to have met Mary Ann or Ginger), it would have been Alan Hale Jr.

After watching Surviving Gilligan's Island, Alan seems like the most likable person and I liked how he embraced the show, even after being type-casted.

My second pick would be been Dawn Wells. I think she still does appearances, so perhaps I will meet her someday.

The infamous Tina Louise. She was a bonafide movie star before embarking on this 3 hour tour and still made her mark on TV & Films long after.

I'm with you, Pat!
While I would have loved to have met all of the cast, if I could only meet one, it would be Alan Hale Jr. I've read the Gilligan's Island books by Russell Johnson, Bob Denver, and Sherwood Schwartz, and the way they talked about Alan and the kind of man he was and the things he did, he just seemed like a very approachable, kind hearted, down-to-earth kind of guy; but on the same token, larger than life.

Dawn Wells

Bob For sure. He seemed like such a sweetie.

Definitely Bob Denver. I love him in GI, the Good Guys, Dusty's Trail and various guest spots I've seen him in. I just think he's lovely :)

Dawn Wells. I heard she was a real sweetheart.

I think you know who I would pick.;)

Tina Louise right?

I was fortunate to have met and talk to them both. Dawn several times. Both were at an autograph show, but not at the same time.

Yes, she is. :)
