“”Professor” Roy Hinkley Jr., M.A. B.S. Ph.D. is one of the main characters on the show. He is a science teacher at a high school, and because of his academic experience he is almost solely referred to as “The Professor” by the Castaways instead of his real name.”

B.S., and M.A.? Not M.S.?
So an engineering undergraduate, but a Master’s in the liberal arts? I bet his Ph.D. *IS* in Psychology, that sick bastard.
I followed your link:
>> Dr. Roy Hinkley, a 45-year-old high school teacher, holds six degrees in the fields of chemistry, botany, biology, psychology and geography. <<
HE IS A PSYCHOLOGIST!!!!! The whole time he’s on the island, he’s performing sick experiments on the others!!!
I'm imagining the pitch for this show. "It's about seven castaways shipwrecked on an uncharted tropical island."
Won't that get boring with the same seven people every week?"
"Nah, we'll have guest stars."
Wait...he has a PhD in science and teaches at a high school? That is way below his capabilities, especially in 1964.
And, obviously, he is an INCEL by choice.
PhD teaching at a high school? No wonder none of his stuff worked.
