    Gilligan’s Island - American intellectual comedy

    On the other hand he also laid this turkey after Gilligan's Island. Dusty's Trail has been referred to as Gilligan's Island reset in a western, the desire to recapture GI wasn't even hidden all the way to a stand-in for each member of the castaways.

    Gilligan’s Island - American intellectual comedy

    This is my favorite Mrs. Howell moment. She gets to let her hair down (literally) and break character while doing a very good job at keeping up with the girls.

    Dawn Wells explanation about clothes They did salvage the ship's radio for parts and also had the radio they listened to which makes me wonder why they had to use a seashell for a speaker when the the phone line washed ashore and they tapped into it.

    Best episode ending

    I can't imagine watching it again, at least anytime foreseeable. Of the years of catching episodes mostly 2fers on Gold I had seen episodes from every era of the show and was familiar with all the characters but when I did my straight through series run earlier this year that was the first time...

    So many great ones but I'll tell you what's made me chuckle a couple times recently when it randomly popped into my mind is when they come back for a moment after the credits in Goodnight Sweet Ferret and the bride coldcocks Barry:p

    I'm the last of the ones I grew up with. I have nieces that live together with their kids and I am giving them the 1st projector I bought back in April and a Fire Stick already set up with a bunch of goodies for them to dive right into.

    How do YOU view the forums / website?

    I use a 60" TV as a PC monitor. I usually sit about 4 feet away, wearing readers, have the browser set to 150% magnification and still occasionally have to bring up the on-screen magnifier. I'm a tad nearsighted. :P <insert Eli jokes here>

    What’s in thou matchbox, mate?

    That's not one of the episodes I have highest quality of and for some reason the gif software made it an insane size file while reducing quality even more. You can see it better from the video I sourced if you watch for the shadows to move across the inside of the box as he slightly moves it...
