Quote of the month

Professor: Stick out your tongue. Ahh yes, I think we'll have to operate!
Mary Ann: Operate! What have I got? 
Professor: You have a severe case of roomisigloomis.
Gilligan: Zat is what she has alright.
Mary Ann: What is roomisigloomis?
Professor: It's a medical term my dear, no concern of yours. 

Welcome to the November edition of the Gilligan's Island Fan Club. 

Did you get to watch "Surviving Gilligan's Island?" We thoroughly enjoyed it! The actor's
and actresses played the cast to a tee, and it was pretty interesting what went on "behind 
the scenes." The "Skipper's Log," run by our Island Corespondent Pete Salisbury, reported that 
'Surviving Gilligan's Island' was the highest rated TV movie in two years. It won the night for 
CBS and it won in every category. It's the first show to beat a first run episode of The 
Practice in the ratings war. What does this mean? It could mean that 'Gilligan's Island: The 
Movie" might get the fast track into production. Studios are scrambling to find light 
hearted/comedy scripts to produce because the mood of the country is crying for laughter and 
what better way then with a proven product.

TV Guide has a great Gilligan's Island Trivia game on their site, and it's not too tough. Go to 
their site at http://tvguide.com/games/trivia/011012.asp and play away. Great for one of those 
rainy days! Thanks Steve D. for finding this one! 

Rebecca sent us a note saying that Alan Hale Jr. was offered the role of Sam the butcher on the 
Brady Bunch, but thought the role was too low class! 

Remember George?  He's the guy who made the Gilligan voodoo figures.

He is now selling new Gilligan's Island Christmas ornaments that Bob & Dreama are selling on 
their web site.

Anybody living in the Lewes Delaware district? If so, we need somebody to check out a 
"Gilligan's" restaurant. Apparently this is one of the best places to eat in Lewes with a 
variety of tasty dishes and a great deck by the canal. Please e-mail me if you plan to go.
The only info we have is that it may be located at the Canal Square. 302-645-7866

Well that's all for now. The Professor found a crate in the lagoon and made it into a satellite 
dish. Using salvaged parts from the transmitter, he was able to build a receiver, a tv and 
even a remote! (Isn't he amazing!) Now we can watch ourselves weekdays at 5:30am and on the 
weekends at 6:00am. on TBS. Life just doesn't get any better than this!
