This was Sally Field's first television situation comedy. In it she portrayed a bright, winsome fifteen-and-a-half year old California teenager.

Sally was adorable.
I was in a surfing tournament.
I was riding a wave and the girls were cheering and the guys were clapping.
My trunks had slipped down.
Stevie Ray Vaughan and Dick Dale with “Pipeline”
Yes, I feel guilty for omitting Dick Dale and Vaughn.
I periodically watch ‘Pipeline’ on youtube.

Too bad Sally is a total Stalinazi moonbat flake. I saw her in a Dick Cavett interview from the early ‘70s, and it was clear she was psychologically unbalanced.
“Okay little buddy, let’s go!”
“NOT YOU!!! NOT NOW!!!!!
He also said something like “we had a professor who could make a radio out of a coconut but couldn’t fix a hole in a boat”
“Back to the Beach” was hysterically funny as a send up of all the Frankie and Annette beach movies.
How about Dick Dale doing Pipeline
of the 3,762,388 views of that youtube clip, 3,743,532 are mine
huge SRV and Dick Dale fan
#22 So they all saw the Little Kahuna : )
Funny… I am of the age to of watched that, but I was out of the country, so I never watched a single episode, So I knew of who she was, but had never seen her or an episode of it.
Just today, I was walking by the television which my wife was watching and I looked up… And I said “good gosh… That has got to be Gidget!”
Never saw her as Gidget before! But there was no mistaking it.
Yes, she was cute back in the day. It’s too bad she has turned into what she has.
The ROKU channel has it free.
Loved those movies.
Um....wasn’t he playing an English professor?
As I watched the marathon, Gidget's brother-in-law, John(Pete Duel), was acting like Dick York's son, the original Darren on Bewitched.
He was good in ‘Alias Smith and Jones’. I thought it was a very entertaining TV western series even though it was a blatant rip-off of ‘Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid’. Peter Duel and Ben Murphy did such a good job you did care it was a rip-off.
Watched a few episodes of that “mini marathon”. From the days when entertainment shows usually had a moral component. Mostly “don’t lie, it comes back to bite you”.
Lots of smiles and some chuckles and laughs, killing a couple of hours before our company arrived.
The first episode I watched featured Daniel J. Travanti (who later played captain Furillo on Hill Street Blues) as a beach bum who turned out to be Gidget's math teacher when school started.
