Ginger, Mary Ann, & Lovey as “The Honeybees!

December 9, 1965 | The Gilligan’s Island girls, Ginger, Mary Ann, and Lovey as The Honeybees singing the swingin’ tune,”You Need Us.”

From the Gilligan’s Island episode, “Don’t Bug the Mosquitoes” Season 2 Episode 12. In a parody of The Beatles and Beatlemania, the music sensation “The Mosquitoes” land on the island for much needed peace and quiet. What they get instead are the girls having formed a group of their own, “The Honeybees”. - Via

Honey bees have been a theme this week.
