Hi everyone,

I am a new Gidget fan. Although I remember seeing some of The New Gidget show when it was on in the 80s, I just started watching the classic show when it came to TVLand in April. I have enjoyed it a lot, and look forward to it every night. I just wish it lasted more then one season :crying:

I have one question. Was it ever said how Gidget got her nickname? :confused: I think I've seen almost all the episodes, and I haven't heard an explanation. Does anyone know?

Christina :bye:

Hey Christina, Im Crystal!:D Im a new Gidget fan too, so I dont know all that much about it. But anyways, welcome and if I come across the answer Ill let ya know ASAP!:D

the movie made in 1959 (and the book) which the show is based off of explains... her nickname stands for GIRL MIDGET.
