You're right, Hannah, Gilligan was a really sweet guy and Mary Ann was the nicest person- in fact, I saw Dawn Wells in interviews and she is as nice as her character, it appears. Even if he did overreact to everything, I thought the Skipper was very funny. And Mr. Howell was also very funny if you could ignore his extreme snobbishness. I didn't really like Ginger- she had a way of using sweet talk to get what she wanted. The professor wasn't
that smart- he couldn't even fix a hole in a boat.
Yeah. Mr. Howell is growing on me. He always makes little jokes and then is so proud of himself. He's a dick, but he's kind of funny. Mrs. Howell, however, is 100% annoying. And I still hate Ginger, because every single scene she does is about her slutting around trying to trick everyone.
And about the professor not being
that smart, that's another reason why I hate him! He acts like he knows everything! He makes medications, and tooth fillings, and mirrors, but he cannot fix a hole in a boat? He's a stupid idiot, but everyone still treats him like he knows everything. There was an entire episode when they determined they needed to make nails to patch up the boat. Then they tried to use glue, but it turned to powder. So all the professor needs to do is built some nails or glue. But he's too busy making mirrors. Plus, one time the radio stopped working, and he took the whole thing apart and only then came to the conclusion that the batteries were dead. Dumb ***.
At any rate, I'd much rather stay on the island forever than come back to live where there is government and taxes and all that. Those guys have all sorts of tropical fruit, and an uncanny ability to build chairs, hammocks, tables, houses, dishes and everything else. And their hair never gets greasy even though they don't have soap... unless the professor made some... They are lucky they all get along with each other so well. No one is trying to kill all the others or take over as a sort of dictator. It would be the perfect life. Especially if you got to be Gilligan, because he's always ******* everything up, and getting to do all sorts of fun little adventures and everyone still likes him.
Plus, there's monkey friends on the island. :danana:
