I have seen this so many times and it is my least favorite GI spoof. Well anyway if you have not seen it before its on tonight at 11:00 pm on Nick at Nite. Bob Denver, Tina Louise, Dawn Wells and Russell Johnson are in only 2 minutes of it during the end credits.

Thanks for the tip, GF! :) I NEVER watched Rosanne, so I didn't even know about this episode until I read about it on bobdenver.com. The only thing I didn't like was that girl as Gilligan. Ugh. Am I the only person in the world who does NOT see Gilligan as goofy and stupid? I think of him more like what the British would describe as "cheeky", or mischevious; also innocence exaggerated to hyperbole (MGK being the basis for this, with Gilligan being "Maynard-lite"). Cute, charming and sweet not ugly, stupid and annoying. If that makes any sense. :)

So that was an inccurate portrayal of Gilligan? I didn;t watch a lot of GI to know but the way Jackie was playing him really had me laughing

nah Gilligan never realy did the stuff Jackie did. There was a lot more pratfalls and slapstick and jokes than anything else. Gilligan wasn't stupid he was just a klutz. I thought Jackie made him look like an idiot and he realy wasn't

Oh, I don't think it was like Gilligan at all. I mean I know it was a spoof, but still. . .Gilligan was more soft-spoken and gentle, not loud and obnoxious like the "Jackie" portrayal.
