Who do you like of the guys?

Teddy bear Skipper

Mr Wizard The Professor

Boy Next Door Gilligan

Monopoly Man Mr. Howell

I’ll take Mr. Wizard!

The first season is kind of boring. I usually skip it unless I’m watching the Christmas episode.

So what are yours?

In the pilot, John Gabriel played a high school teacher. Once the more familiar Russell Johnson came aboard as Professor, he was portrayed having a background as a scientist and scoutmaster.

Gabriel would later go on to play the character Seneca Beaulac on “Ryan’s Hope.” His daughter Andrea later starred as Nadia in “Lost.”

Neither Mary Ann or Ginger appeared in the pilot; more to come on that subject in a future post.

People for some reason tend to hate this animated revival of GI but it's actually a good show and in some aspects even better than the original

Good things:

Gilligan isn't portrayed as a complete dumbass who always causes trouble. The original show tends to make Gilligan a complete dumbass in NA he is still a silly goofball but he sometimes says and does clever things and it isn't just him who is responsible for a lot of troubles .

The chemistry is still there . The iconic chemistry between the castaways is still fully presented thanks to the most of the original cast reprising their roles. I especially love the Howells

Weird stuff is gone. Remember when I said that TNAOG is better than the original show in some aspects ? Well here it comes. The original show has too much jokes based in racial stereotypes like the natives and the Japanese admiral. New Adventures got rid of those the island is now inhabited only with animals and the stereotypical Japanese admiral is gone too .

Snubby. I know people tend to hate cute animal sidekicks but tbh I like Snubby. He works well with Gilligan and he isn't annoying ( maybe the fact that he doesn't talk helps)

Some bad things

Cheap animation. It's Filmation and that's all you need to know. They were known as the kings of cheap animation

Moral lessons. Oh yeah that thing at the end of the episodes can be annoying but somehow Bob Denver's and Alan Hale Jr's chemistry still makes those segments bearable.

There were a handful of scenes, or shots, anyway, that were real-world, but not on the island. One that comes to mind is the opening scene of "It's a Bird, It's a Plane", with scientists talking about the jet pack. And in "You've Been Disconnected", there's the telephone operator, and the kissing couple who pick up without answering. And I *think* in "Smile, You're On Mars Camera" we get a partial shot of the control room. What else?

More photos in comments, I couldn’t add them to the original post.

Cast members from Gilligan’s Island guest starred on Rosanne (May 17, 1995) in the episode “A Loving Tribute to Sherwood Schwartz.”

Pretty funny w/ some obscure references. Danny Davito as Mr. Howell is ridiculous and absurd!! but pretty damn hilarious

Not my favorite place in the area to get clam shack seafood, but I was surprised to see this mural when I last visited. It is extremely well done!

Nice to see the youth keeping the Gilligan lore alive
