"DRIGGS, Idaho (AP) -- Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann on "Gilligan's Island," is serving six months' unsupervised probation after allegedly being caught with marijuana in her car.

She was sentenced Feb. 29 to five days in jail, fined $410.50 and placed on probation after pleading guilty to one count of reckless driving.

Under a plea agreement, three misdemeanor counts - driving under the influence, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of a controlled substance - were dropped.

On Oct. 18, Teton County sheriff's Deputy Joseph Gutierrez arrested Wells as she was driving home from a surprise birthday party that was held for her. According to the sheriff's office report, Gutierrez pulled Wells over after noticing her swerve and repeatedly speed up and slow down. When Gutierrez asked about a marijuana smell, Wells said she'd just given a ride to three hitchhikers and had dropped them off when they began smoking something. Gutierrez found half-smoked joints and two small cases used to store marijuana.

The 69-year-old Wells, founder of the Idaho Film and Television Institute and organizer of the region's annual family movie festival called the Spud Fest, then failed a sobriety test.

Wells' lawyer, Ron Swafford, said that a friend of Wells' testified that he'd left a small amount of marijuana in the vehicle after using it that day, and that Wells was unaware of it. Swafford also said several witnesses were prepared to testify that Wells had very little to drink at the party and was not intoxicated when she left. He said she was swerving on the road because she was trying to find the heater controls in her new car."

Yeah, saw that. I always knew I made the right choice with Mary Ann. :lol:

Well you know how them farm girls are.......:lol: They like to grow crops....

Oh my, what would Lovey think?:roll:

Cop: "I smell weed"

Mary-Ann: "I smell bacon"

Hilarity does not ensue

Didn't Bob Denver originally say that she provided him the marijuana when he got busted in the late 80's? :lol: Gilligan and Mary Ann used to get stoned together. :D

Im thinking she found a big ol ganja grove on that island. Old habits die hard.
(Ive been clean and sober for over 5 years now but I can so relate!)

An actor using drugs? Huh.

Sad truth is...once a celebrity, no matter what, the press is gonna get a call.
if anything, this will HELP her (ex) career, not hurt it.

perhaps a character name change is in order?

Marry Ann- OUT
Marry Jane- IN

So you think she'll think she'll be on next seasons Celebrity Rehab? :confused: :lol: She could always travel the country speaking at rallies like Woody Harrelson. ;)

SO she gotta get married now? :lol:

Of course she was growing weed on that island! Why do you think it took them so long to get off it? I mean really, if the Professor could make a radio out of coconut shells, he could fix that boat....providing that he was not stoned....I rest my case! lol

God would that not be funny Mary Ann, The Howls, The Skipper and Gilligan all at a table going around (like on that 70's Show) talking about things that are normal but when high are funny.

Like: Wow the coconut is so white inside like Elmer’s glue but solid and Harry on the outside like my uncle Jacks back!

I am no advocate for drug useage but pot being illegal is the dumbest thing i have ever heard!! i havent smoked pot in at least 10yrs but i still think it should be legal but the big drug companies make way to much cash pumping synthetic crap into us for that to ever happen!!

that would be hillarious!!! i would watch that!!!

Mary ann was way hotter than ginger (the farm girl thing)!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
