Gilligan’s Island is one of those timeless shows that captures the hearts of every generation! With its blend of great comedy, unforgettable characters, and outrageous scenarios, it has become a beloved classic.
From 1964 to 1967, this iconic series transported us to a tropical paradise where castaways faced all sorts of wild adventures. But you know what? Even in that idyllic setting, there were some little mistakes you might have missed!
To begin with, there’s a big blooper that many people have missed during all these years. In season two’s opening credits, we start at the marina, where we’re greeted by the Skipper and, of course, Gilligan. The scene then takes us to the boat setting sail into the vast ocean, ready for their infamous ”three-hour tour.”
Now, here’s where things get interesting. We all know there should be seven castaways, right? But if you take a closer look at two separate shots in the opening credits, there are actually eight people on the boat!
