Like most actors of the day, the cast of Gilligan's Island were each paid a certain amount of money per episode, plus payment for the first five repeats, so their income from the show ended nearly 50 years ago. But one member of the cast thought that the show was better than that... Dawn Wells, who played Mary Anne, made sure her contract gave her a small royalty no matter how long the show repeated. The studio didn't care, because even they didn't think it would be repeated. She was right-- nobody ever got tired of the show. It has been running continuously for more than 50 years, and her royalties have added up to tens of millions of dollars. What an amazing deal... be sure to know YOUR worth!
