Gilligan's Island: Castaways Pictures PresentsCBS
November 4, 1965
Sitcom
DVD
B+
Another collaboration between Alan Dinehart and Herbert Finn, this is one of the best episodes of the series, although like all the others so far, it spends too much time on set-up. Both the scenes of the shooting of the silent movie and the screening of the movie are great though, from what sounds like Jim Backus ad-libbing up a storm to of course Ginger and the Professor kissing, despite his concerns that it's unhygienic. (The reactions of the other five castaways are just perfect.) The tag scene is also great, with the film winning at Cannes.
