Gilligan’s Island Revisted

Posted by newscoma | Posted in Pop Culture | Posted on 09-02-2010

My fascination with television from the 60s bring us this morning to Snopes, which focuses on the names of the castaways at Gilligan’s Island. I knew the Skipper’s name was Jonas Grumby, but I didn’t know about Gilligan.

Yes, I do these things to occupy my very crowded mind.

My childhood revisted:

Who’s up for coconut cream pie?

Sharing Is Caring (3)

  1. OMG. Stop it! Now I’m trying to figure out why the band didn’t rescue the Honey Bees and friends. Where the hell did they come from?

  2. Christian, you just made me laugh out loud! The HoneyBees rawked!

  3. I said the same thing, Christian. Even waaay back then.

    Oddly, I found myself just FASCINATED with Ginger this time. Girlfriend could frug, woo-eee dawg. Ahem.

    I keeees you again for this, ma’am. I think I need to show these to La Fishmouth when she’s a little older so we can discuss the existential silliness of the show.

    When I was her age now, though, I believed every dang thing they did. Logic be damned.
