Sweet, amusing reflection of one of the best shows on TV!, 15 October 2001
10/10
Author: dhallen from Texas



A sweet, wholesome, loving tribute to the show and stars. Surviving Gilligan's Island brought back a lot of fond memories. Having read some of the "behind the scenes" accounts by Sherwood Schwartz and the surviving cast members, I had heard many of the anecdotes before. Still, this was a wonderful reflection back on a great show.
