Gilligan’s Island like many sitcoms was just plain dumb. It’s only saving grace was that it was funny, genuinely funny. The premise was stupid but the cast that they managed to corral was both unique and clever. The writing was pretty good over all and I will take Maryann over Ginger any day of the week.
I love the fact that they always had whatever they needed with them. Books, records, clothing, money. What they didn’t have usually washed up on the beach. Professor was an expert on everything.
I have purchased all three seasons of Gilligan on dvd and they are worth every penny spent. I watch them with my children.
Great family entertainment.

I agree, put Maryann over Ginger and bring them to me!
