I'm sorry, but you're really starting to bug me. Ginger is an okay character and Tina is a good actress, but she's not the greatest thing in the world. apparently the new movie on CBS isn't going to paint her in the best light, and I for one am happy about it. She sounds like she's acted pretty snobby.

argh! here we go getting me pissed off once again! lmao! all u people who think Tina is dumb and hate her for turning down the gilligans island roles r just dumb to begin with! bob denver and dawn wells live in the past they havnt had a lengthy career at least not like Tinas see SHE MOVED ON TO FIND NEW WORK! SHE DOESNT LIVE IN THE PAST! CALL HER A BITCH WHATEVER shes doing the right thing as an actress. she went on to new projects she doesnt sit her and dwell in the past like bob and dawn and they r obviously obsessed with what WAS (gilligans island) and they r just pissed because they realised she moved on and they live in the past, thats why whenever they get the chance (ex. interviews) they bash her! its redicilous and everyone that sides with them are just as redicilous! think about it!

excuse me, WHAT CAREER? Tina has only made a few, not too popular movies, and her parts in them are not even significant. If you're gonna take her side, she blames GI for *ruining* her career, not because she's *moved on.* And I am not against her to speak of, I'm against all of you Tina fans that would take a bullet for her if you had to, cuz you're just irritating.

first of all u have NO IDEA how many films shes made! now do ya!! check out her credits on IMDB shes had more of a career then u could think, and so what if shes no MM neither is dawn wells or anything! and i could care less if u find me irritation because i find u to be one sided and totally
ridiculous!

I certainly do know how many films she's made, not that it's any of your business, but I am majoring in both German and Film Studies, and frequently visit the Internet Movie Database. The fact that she's made movies doesn't mean that she's had a successful career. Anyway, she is a good actress, just acted like a total snob during GI, and just you try and deny that! She made everyone wait for her, always tried to grab the attention away, and insisted that a show called "Gilligan's Island" is a show about her. A good actress, but a witch in real life probably.

agreed.....

ok u obviously didnt understand my post. this is what YOU said
excuse me, WHAT CAREER? Tina has only made a few, not too popular movies,

i corrected that because she HAS been in a lot of films. and i am def not trying o deny anything, i think she all the right to do what she did on the set granted it was not very professional of her I KNOW! but she had all the right, and i prob would have done the same thing if they screwed me over like that. and this movie airing tomorrow is of VERY bad taste! and nothing but a way to get stupid revenge trying to spoil Tina Louise's image.

Tina has been in 30 movies and television movies since the end of the show. Only one is even semi-popular anymore, and that's the "Stepford Wives". She has been in three series. She was in "Dallas" for a year, she was in "Rituals" for a year, and in "All My Children" for, amazingly enough, a YEAR. Dawn has, I must admit, done only 16 things since. Two reunion movies and a cartoon based on the series are among those. Also, one of her credits is four years as a model on "High Rollers". But Tina's roles in C-movies does not make her all that more important than Dawn.

Tinasmylife why don't you just let all the Tina haters post whatever they want. You know Tina was a good actress and thats all you need to know. I not putting Tina down by saying this but she was acting like she was all that during GI and I don't really think she was. She should of kept her head out of her butt to be a friend to the cast, like family and been their for the reunion movies. Tell me something did Tina ever go to Jim & Natalies funeral? I know she didn't go to Alans because last night on the movie it was Dawn who went only.

Ok it is just peoples opinions...no one has to get mad about any of this...you have to admitt TinasMyLife Tina was a lil snobby to the GI crew at first..But maybe it was just one of her days because like they said in the movie last night after the first couple of shows she was fine...So she had some days she was picky doesnt everyone!! I dont know any of the work that Tina has done other then Ginger so I am not trying to stick up for her or TinasMyLife but TinasMyLife has a right to get mad at what you are saying because if anyone called Nancy Mckeon names than i would be VERY pi**ed off also....there is no reason to start a big fight out of something like this...saying rude stuff about people like tina isnt right because none of us know her - but it is your opinions and u can state them....and I am sure Liza didnt mean anything she said to come out in a rude way all she said was she SOUNDED like she acted pretty snobby...and TINASMYLIFE..we are allowed to say what we want on this board about whoever we want like tina or anyone else...Like i sais about a million times before this board was made so we can STATE ARE OPINIONS..and maybe some people just dont like Tina..but you are right they have no reason to bash her if they dont know her any way I am going to go I hope everything cools down on this post...TOODLES!! -Jinny

I just wish that for once people would try and think like Tina for a minute, She was sold a show that was a lie, to her that is. after the show ended she wanted to movie on with her career like any professional actor would do, but she couldnt very well because most people don't see her as Tina they see her as Ginger and think, she was probably just trying to get people to know her as Tina not Ginger, because she is not Ginger! but when that doesnt ever happen, it can really haunt you for the rest of your life, luckilly she has been able to get one good use out of the character, and thats to communicate better with the children she teaches. other then that she just wants to be seen for who she really is! not a character.

I totally agree w/ the past few posts. I apologize if I offended anyone. I really just wanted to point out that Tina (and no, she's not the only one) has her faults. But I've got my own excentricities too, if anyone started to make digs at my favorite actresses I too would be annoyed, yet they are entitled to their opinions. But don't take it personally!

I'm split right down the middle here. I do understand the Tina resents being typecasted as Ginger. Who wouldn't be upset? Just imagine everytime you went to go on an acting job and everybody saw you as Ginger Grant. I do understand that it must've made her very upset. I'm sure it didn't help matters any when fans came up to you and yelled Ginger, almost like Tina Louise didn't even exist. I guess when she took on the Ginger role, Tina Louise ceased to exist in the fans eyes.
The only thing I disagree about is, if Tina was mean to the cast- that wasn't exactly right. I wasn't there during the filming of GI, so I don't know who to believe. Maybe Tina was polite to everybody, or maybe she did have her bitchy days. Who knows? I'm pretty sure that unless you worked on GI then you'll never know.


Sorry I made anybody mad with my post, but this is just my opinion. Sorry this is so long also!

Why were all the scenes involving Tina Louise always showing her in a bad light?
To be fair, shouldn't they have shown some good scenes involving her. I also can't believe that Bob and Dawn were always goody two shoes! Most of the "goody two shoes' that I have known can be just as nasty and mean to others as anyone. Of course, you wouldn't see Dawn Wells(Miss Perfect) show anything like that or anything bad about Bob Denver. However, there was that marijuana incident that some say Dawn Wells had a part in, but of course you can't expect them to make themselves look bad!

EXACALLY!! finally someone agrees with me! lmao!

You could be right, but I've NEVER heard that one, that Dawn had something to do with the drugs. That seems kinda unlikely, since they found them growing in Bob's backyard, and it was only he and Dreama who confessed to using it. Dawn was never mentioned. True, they didn't show any of the bad things that Dawn did, but she seems to be a really sweet person in real life. I certainly could be wrong, and nobody's perfect, but they could have been a lot meaner to Tina than they were.

I understand what you are trying to say - It is just like Kim fields she doesnt want to be known as TOOTIE anymore But to be loyal to all of her fans she is doing a reunion movie - What people are just trying to say is tina doesnt have to act the way she does sometimes...she chooses to...OKAY BUHBYEZ http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/wave.gif

Would you people stop posting messages that get people mad! OK! Sometimes i think you do it to drive the other people Crazy! Just Stop!!! You can tell people what you think of her but do you actually have to post a message on it!

Thank you!

Exactly!! I mean so what we want to post what we think!! It is a message board to do that!!!!

Oh im sorry.. i thought you guys were getting mad about it, so i tried to stop it. It was my mistake. OK

Can I just take a moment and laugh? I mean you guys started out fighting and through it all have come to an agreement...or so it seems. I'm not taking sides in this, I'd just love to see Tina come here and see how much she's loved. I don't mean that sarcastically either, because if you think about it, even harassment or whatever you want to call the first post not only shows that someone cares about what's being said, but that everyone has noticed what an uprising the Tina fans have done.

I read through all the posts and I still don't have an opinion on the matter, I just had to post and say you made me laugh. Thanks.

**Gracie**

You're welcome! (And I know what you mean) http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

It's funny how hyped up people get when talking about Ginger vs. Mary Ann... and it's funny how personally people take negative things said about a TV show or a character they like... (e.g. Try criticizing "Facts of Life" on THAT board, see how long you live) :-)

Being a guy, I'm totally superficial when it comes to Ginger vs. Mary Ann...IMHO, Dawn was not only better looking than Tina during the run of the show, but she's also much better looking today...I mean, Dawn in short-shorts vs. Tina in a crummy evening gown...in Dick Vitale's words, that's an "NC" (no contest) :-)

Two other reasons I like Dawn better:

1) She's nicer
2) She runs an acting school for people who want to get into show business (either stage or screen). I think it's cool that she wants to help others. Heck, I may go to that school myself someday, just to meet her :-)

And, I don't care WHAT Tina says about how the producers lied to her about her being the star of the show, I think she just heard what she wanted to hear from them...As they say, the show was called "Gilligan's Island" not "Ginger's Island".

I'm a Tina fan. And I have a life. http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/biggrin.gif
