I Smell Pop Culture with Tina Louise

I Am All In with Scott Patterson

When you watch an episode of Gilmore Girls, you can expect 3 things: cozy vibes, fast talking, and a lot of pop culture references.

We’re taking you BEYOND the quick reference in the episodes and learning more about how someone becomes a staple in pop culture, and we’re starting off with a TV icon… Tina Louise from Gilligan’s Island!

Tina was referenced in Season 3, Episode 10 “That’ll Do Pig”, when Francie says “you do not wanna be my enemy, Marlo Thomas” and Rory responds with “I think I do, Tina Louise”.

Learn how Tina’s early life helped shape her into one of the most beloved actresses of all time, and hear some stories from her time as Ginger Grant on the legendary Gilligan’s Island.

We promise it won’t be a 3 hour tour, but grab your coconuts and come aboard for I Smell Pop Culture!
