"Even on Gililligan's Island ..."

1. They're throwing a little extra shade with the quotation marks.

Trump isn't even a rich blowhard, he's a "rich" blowhard.

2. +1

3. We need those headhunters from the nearby island

to show up and drag the "millionaire" into the jungle.

[Awsi Dooger]

4. Dawn Wells for vice president

That would settle the debate

[ThoughtCriminal]

5. The Professor was obviously part of the Island's "Deep State"

He wanted to keep the Howells trapped there. Gilligan and the Skipper were in on it.

7. I'd take the millionaire right now

We've put Gilligan in charge, all liquored and pissed up after years of abuse on the island.

8. They still treated the Howell cash like it mattered...

... on that island. Lol!

They had dreams of returning to civilization, though, where it would have significance again.

I can't believe I'm analyzing their "thoughts" on that TV show. Lol!

9. Thurston Howell III was the epitomy of GOP greed with a humorous demeanor. Great show

for 3 years until it ran against Gunsmoke and was canceled. The actors/actresses received virtually nothing for re-runs (sadly)
Professor was my role model. Saved their ass on so many occasions! Because.....Science!

10. And yet.....

With all his knowledge and expertise, he couldn't repair a hole in a boat hull.

11. Well, that would have ended the show! There was an episode when a glue had potential, but

Gilligan found it tasty, so you knew it wasn't going to work. In real life, they would have killed and/or eaten Gilligan, or banished him to live with the Maroobi headhunters. Yeah I watched a lot..... Hey it was the 60's. Good stuff.

12. "In real life, they would have killed and/or eaten Gilligan..."

".... or banished him to live with the Maroobi."



Thank you for that!

13. Skipper: "It's the wail of the Maroobi" Loved that show!

14. There was a short story that appeared in an issue of "National Lampoon"

way back when, written by "The Professor", in the manner of a diary in which he schemes to rid himself of Gilligan, and then the other men, leaving himself with Ginger and Maryann (I think he got rid of Mrs. Howell also, because he found her useless!) to live the rest of his days in bliss!

It was very funny.

15. That's great! I heard Russell Johnson as a guest on a local radio show in the 80's. Very down-to-

earth and funny. The actors received very little in royalties due to contract clauses but he maintained a good sense of humor.
