I have the octopus version of FCtW...neither ending really makes much sense, does it? It's real, though.

You know..and I think this in itself has been dismissed as a myth or at least a great exageration, but Sherwood Shwartz allegedly intended GILLIGAN'S ISLAND to be a rather high brow, satirical comedy so chose his cast aways to each represent a large swatch of society as a whole... well given that Shwartz later made in all earnestness something gobsmackingly bad as THE BRADY BUNCH and in the 80's tried to sell a GILLIGAN sequal series set after a nuclear war and featuring the teenage offspring of the original castaways "discovering themselves" ala BLUE LAGOON, maybe GILLIGANS ISLAND is some high minded social satire in his book.
