Gilligan's Island: The Chain of Command

Gilligan's Island: The Chain of Command
CBS
December 2, 1965
Sitcom
DVD
B-

The Skipper still assumes he's the leader of the island, and he's starting to worry about a successor.  So, after rejecting everyone else on the island, he trains Gilligan.  Shipping notes: Mary Ann believes in and motivates Gilligan, while Ginger vamps him to convince she'd be a good spy.  My favorite detail is actually how rocking some of the incidental music gets.  Skinny Mulligan gets another shout-out.  Arnold & Lois Peyser also co-wrote "St. Gilligan and the Dragon."  This is the first episode directed by Leslie Goodwins.
