The Only Surviving Stars Of Gilligan’s Island
By WITNEY SEIBOLD
The seven characters on "Gilligan's Island" went for a famous three-hour tour on the S.S. Minnow in 1963, but when the boat hit bad weather, they were stranded on a desert island.
The series followed their merry attempts to survive during 98 episodes, ending in 1967. Since then, most of the show’s stars have passed away, but one survives.
Tina Louise, who played the movie star Ginger, is the only member of the main cast still alive, celebrating her 90th birthday on February 11, 2024.
Louise’s character, Ginger, was happy to gossip about her friendships with other movie stars, gave hair and makeup advice, and was in an implied affair with the Professor.
