Does anyone think that Dawn Wells was treated very unfairly when they cut her out of the TV Guide cover back in 1965? In the E! True Hollywood Story, she was kind of laughing about it, but I wonder how she really feels about it? Also, I never read any of the Gilligan's Island books. Does it give any real depth about that incident? The E! True Hollywood Story does not give much detail about it. I think that was horrible to do to Dawn. If you can let me know that would be great. Thanks.

Well,in the tv-movie Surviving G.I!TV Guide was only interested by Bob Denver (the star of the show and Tina Louise(the glamourous movie star).Bob insisted that they inclued Dawn because she was part of the show too.The photograph took the picture with the three of them but,they cut Dawn anyway.She was extremely unhappy to be trick like that.Who wouldn't be?
