Favorite Episode
From all the many episodes of Gilligan’s Island, Tina Louise said filming “All About Eva” was her absolute favorite. To refresh your memory, that was when another red head named Eva washes up on the island. Initially, Eva was a bit of a mess, but Ginger helped her freshen up with a complete makeover. In an odd turn of events, Eva escapes and takes on Ginger’s identity once she returns to Hollywood. Naturally, Tina Louise played by characters and truly loved shooting the episode.
