Mary Ann of 'Gilligan's Island' Caught With Marijuana

[QUOTE=Brynda]
Huh. A friend of mine claimed to smoke with her in the late 1980s, and I was never sure whether to believe him. Guess I do now.

I’d have believed it as soon as I learn she has a WigWam acting camp in Idaho (quite true- web site’s down at the moment, but you can get to it through dawnwells.com).

In case anybody else was wondering, that story here.

What had to really hurt was that she wasn’t identified as “Jan Smithers, bka Bailey Quarters from WKRP” in the opening sentence but as

Yeesh. I thought she was a recluse somewhere in Canada.

I met her a couple times here in Florida, must have been around '79-'80. She was very nice, not as saccharine as Mary Ann, but pleasant and not full of herself. She never asked me to smoke with her though.

Sorry to say, but I think the OP screwed the pooch with the thread title. Mary Ann Caught With Mary Jane was staring you right in the face; you need to get in touch with your inner New York Post.
Also, Mary Ann > Ginger, and it’s not even close.

So now, having been presented with new evidence, we must re-ask the age old question: Ginger or Mary Ann?

Mary Ann…it’s not even a contest, never was. Still fine @ 69!

and the picture was Brolin! What, no Streisand pictures available? :rolleyes:

  • and that is the cutest mug shot I’ve ever seen!

If I had tried to picture Mary Anne in a mug shot (not that I ever did, before today), it would have looked exactly like this mug shot.

I refuse to even try to picture Bailey in a mug shot. There are some places my mind will not go.

If I were Dawn Wells’s agent I think I could ride this publicity into a guest shot on Desperate Housewives or some similar show. (Is Weeds still on and has Mary Louise Parker’s character’s mother ever been shown? If so and if not there’s a shoe-in there.)

I’d 69 her.

If I wasn’t sure before, I am now. Mary Ann. Hot, wholesome looking, and brings Mary Jane along for the ride.

She can bogart my joint any time.

Ginger was always more of the coke whore.

I’d do both Mary Ann and Mary Jane. Perhaps at the same time. Would that be considered a threesome?

This is just more proof that Mary Ann was a narc.

That is brilliant! I’ll never watch GI the same way again.

Damn, foolishly I thought Gilligan only wrecked every escape on purpose as he was actually growing weed and enjoying secret tryst with Mary Ann. This makes so much more sense.

In the final disposition of the case, she isn’t doing time for marijuana, but for reckless drviing. The charge for cannabis was dropped in the bargain.

That may just be the happiest, most relaxed mug shot I’ve ever seen.

I wonder if she got a three hour tour in the slammer.
