Whoa...you are several up on me!!! I dont recognize any of those shows...although reviewing them, I am suddenly reminded of one attempt to do a lost in space kind of show that had Bob Denver in it...a kind of 'gilligan in space.'

A year before my hubby began working at his current company, the owners of the company three a 'Gilligan Returns" kind of party...and the special guest was Bob Denver!!

On top of that, the best friend of an ex looked almost exactly like Bob Denver...it was scary actually...just as nice though.

just thought y'all would like to know!!! LoL

Yes, Far Out Space Nuts was basically Gilligan in Space, complete with a Skipper lookalike :)

I'm a big Bob Denver fan--loved him as Maynard G. Krebs in Dobie Gillis, too--so I appreciated the Denver anecdote. How'd your husband's company manage to get him for the party?

About to head out here, so see everyone after supper.
