Never mind James Darren. This thread is about how much prettier Sandra Dee certainly is than Sally Field and why.

James Darren was part of the Gidget phenomena so I spoke my feelings on it... You already said you liked Sandra Dee.......

A posting about James Darren all by himself here is a mistake. He should only be at most be referred to in passing about starring opposite Sandra Dee. This is an attempt to spread the gospel truth that Sandra Dee is prettier than Sally Field.

Lee, let me explain a little furtther. I am not a cruel man. Even though you opened up with the words "Oh by the way" and made it somewhat appropriate to discuss having seen Mr. Darren on the streets of New York it would have been even better if you had either :a)Started your own posting about having seen him or:b) Mentioned first how great Sandra Dee looked and acted playing opposite him in Gidget. The b suggstion would have explained to those who did not know who Mr. Darren is and his relation to Sandra Dee. Also, suggestion b would have made an even better(temporary!!!!) transition in subject matter from beautiful Ms. Dee to plain Mr. Darren. And then I would have thanked you for your story and got back to Sandra Dee's really pretty face again. Again, you made the temporary transition somewhat appropriate but not entirely and it was still somewhat wrong of you the way you did it. No hard feelings? Now if everyone's ok on this let's (PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!) get back to Sandra Dee vs. (and Dee-gospelly-conquering) Sally Field in looks. You know in the mid 1960's every young teenage girl looked pretty. It was the hairdos. Even Larue (Lynette Winter) looked good in those hairdos. Sandra Dee was a true doll in any hairdo. Sally Field was really slightly less good looking in 70's hairdos. Thus, the cuteness Field had as Gidget was partially the cute hair style that complemented any girl who had it and made her look cuter than she sometmes actually was (as definitely was in Field's case).

...what is the point in raising the point of which actress is "prettier?" Gidget was a good series of movies and a nice TV show. Gidget isn't about a contest of looks, but it seems here it has become one. And I really don't get the whole nationality angle, but I like Sally, and I like Sandra as well- it IS possible to like two different people based on their own merits. But if the whole "who's prettier" thing is what this has boiled down to, well, that's pretty sad...

Well Shindigger, it looks funny that they replaced Sandra Dee with a (at least somewhat) inferior looking actress to play Gidget on tv. Looks matter a lot in the entertaiment world. As for the nationality angle I'll explain that further. Around the years 2000 to 1500 BC a Syrian tribe began worshipping one God. This Syrian tribe was soon known as Hebrews (or Jewish people). They became quite different than the other Syrian tribes who went on worshipping many gods. The Hebrews homeland became known as both Israel and Judah. Around 70 AD the Romans attacked the area of Israel/Judah which the Romans themselves called Judea. The Jewish people left Judea and headed off into Europe and North Africa. Once in Europe they remained almost always apart from the pagan and later Christian Europeans. In North Africa from the pagan and then Muslim peoples they lived among. Today the Jewish people (proven by genetics) are very usually at least 80% descended from the ancient Syrian tribes and 20% (or less) descended from the Europeans whom they lived among for most of the last 2000 years. If the Jewish people live (or at least have roots) in North Africa they tend to have less than 10% North African genes. Sally Field I have heard is Europeanly Jewish. This almost definitely means she is 80% or more of Syrian background and many of these Syrian girls are not very known for their good looks.

PS Field is at least half-Jewish by her mother therefore is probably at least 40% Syrian. I am not sure if Field's folks were actually married.

Neither! I prefer the very lovely & multi-talentedd Deborah Gibson.

Debbie Gibson was (and still is) more hotter than Sally Field & Sandy Duncan...whatever her name was.

First Debbie Gibson would throw a autographed surfboard on you. (Hopefully her 1986 guitar too),. The 1980s girl next door qwould have LOVED BOTH Gidgets.

YOU my frined and I DO use the term "Friend" loosely have NO business in a PRO-Gidget forum.)

(Then again Sally Field if not Sandra Dee didn't care for either NUN or GIDGET so she might have well LEFT it to Debbie Gibson..if she plays it (hopefully if she DOES at 33 play GODGET if she gravitates from Broadway to TV) and plays it cute) youldcha accept it?

Oh sorry. you hate ANYTHING Gidget.

Absolutely, Sandra Dee was a much prettier Gidget than Sally Field...

Field was very, very cute, and very pretty as well at that time, but Sandra Dee had the face of a world class model...or even (dare I say) a supermodel...Dee had a classically beautiful face...

I'll say this...both Sandra and Sally would have been much sought-after if they went to MY high school...

In terms of actually playing the part, I think Sally is every bit as good, if not better, than Sandra...I admit it's been a while since I've seen S Dee in a Gidget movie, while I've recently seen the Gidget reruns which TV Land runs on the weekends... I thought Sally Field did a fantastic job in that show...

Guess I luv 'em both!!

Well, if you're going to judge beauty on the basis of whether or not someone is of Jewish heritage, I suggest you take a look at this Jew right here:
