I watched a show last night where they interviewed the surviving members of Gilligan's Island, which, if nothing else, serves as justification to those of us who always preferred Mary-Ann to Ginger. If they used the living cast members to do a reunion show at this point, the now 300-LB Professor could play the skipper, and Ginger could be Mrs. Howell, while I swear Mary-Ann could still play herself (meanwhile Gilligan looks older than Sherwood Schwartz).
