Fun fact: "Gilligan's island" is actually Coconut Island, located on the east side of Oahu. If the castaways had only looked around, civilization was not 1/2 mile away. Another fun fact: At the start of each episode, they show the island, which has two tall pine trees. Since that time, one tree got hit by lightning, but the other is still there. Pretty cool I thought :)

This entire show was filmed in Hollywood even the lagoon was man made and unbelievably small. Hollywood studios gave tours and showed this set among many others for years, probably still do. Even Jaws was filmed on a similar set with a huge painted backdrop , mechanical shark, and small water mass with camera effects to resemble the ocean.

I remember watching this movie when it first aired on TV. I was 5 years old at the time, and really enjoyed it. Somehow all the jokes and gags aren’t as funny without a laugh track.

[@honestone490]

Not watching it while eating a bowl of Captain Crunch cereal probably also made a difference too

[@markusdaxamouli5196]

@@honestone490 yep. HONEY COMBS GREAT. YEAH YEAH YEA ITS NIT SMALL NO NO NO

I may be in the minority, but I actually miss the laugh track from the series. Somehow without it, the show doesn’t seem right.

[@ChrisLee66]

I was just thinking the same dam thing!! LOL

[@armandhammer9617]

It is a movie after all though..i had to come back and edit. You're right. The actors even pause at the right time to cue the track lol

[@charleschapman7408]

Maybe because it was meant for a theatre with lots of people.

[@sdgojdfpghj]

It was a TV movie, shown on NBC , iirc.

[@HOWYOUDOIN884]

@@sdgojdfpghj it never made it to an actual theatre??? Maybe that was the original plan.

Not sure if it's true now, but I read long ago that this is the highest rated TV-movie of all time. The world needed to see them get rescued!

I love this I haven't seen this either in so many years

[@brucerivera4550]

Such a great show. Thanks for the memories.

[@preahko]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's so strange without the laugh track! I'm not saying they should have added one, but I grew up with this show (back when it was still on prime time TV), and the laugh track is so ingrained in my memory as a part of the show!

I haven't seen this since I was a kid in the 80's. I never got into the original show much, but it was nice to see them finally be rescued.

[@noelhenderson8095]

I watched this growing up the problem was they got rescued then they all went back out in the new boat that the skipper got and they all ended up back on the island again but eventually they bought the island and turned it into a tourist attraction

Everyone turned up to the party except Tina. Ironically Tina's the oni surviving cast member to date! Sadly time has caught up to the original cast And most of all have passed on. I will always miss Dawn Wells.

You couldn't have. The movie was only shown sporadically after 1978. It was never shown every day.

Me too. With an abusive father, we watched Gilligan before Dad got home. The characters were so friendly. It was heaven before the storm.

Just isn’t the same without Tina Louise as Ginger! Background information says this was filmed in 1978. I had no idea it went that long. I was into my second marriage by then and hadn’t realized they even filmed their rescue! Thanks for the memories! We didn’t get to watch much TV as kids, but this was definitely a staple after school.

Years later, I talked with Barbara Hale, (no relation) who played Della Street, on Perry Mason. She worked with him on a cheap movie called ‘Kingdom of the Spiders’. She had nothing but praise about what a great guy he was. I did get her autograph, but not Alan’s-
