Gilligan's Island: It's a Bird, It's a Plane

Gilligan's Island: It's a Bird, It's a Plane
CBS
March 27, 1967
Sitcom
DVD
B-

While this episode is pretty funny, including things I'm impressed they got by the censors (Mr. Howell scolding the Professor for saying the word "potency" in front of Mrs. Howell, Ginger kissing Gilligan into a stupor), it does bother me that the girls and the Howells try to trick Gilligan into risking his life with the jet-pack.  This is, by the way, another of the episodes influenced by the space race.

It's the last collaboration of three by Sam Locke and Joel Rapp.  Chick Hearn plays the Radio Announcer this time.
