Yes, I think they got off, then stranded again and then off again & turned the Island into a resort.

Other than his hair colour he hardly looked different in his old age. Sad to hear he died.

They just don't make TV like that anymore, do they?.... I remember coming home from school and the range of shows!... Gilligans Island, naturally, plus.. Dobie Gillis show (with Bob Denver)... Casey Jones (with Alan Hale Jr who was the skipper on G/Island) Family Affair (Sebastian Cabet I think & Buffy & Jodie) and Jet Jackson (The flying commando with Ickabod Mudd (TWO "D"s) ... Patti Duke show... I love Lucy... Sigh..
Sorry.... Way off track here..... R.I.P. Bob Denver, A legend to us "baby boomers"
