Hey folks,
If you liked the book I co-wrote with Russell Johnson ("Here on Gilligan's Isle") years ago, you just may get a big kick out of my newest, just hitting the shelves: "The Munsters: A Trip Down Mockingbird Lane" (Watson-Guptill Publishing/Backstage Books). It's a massive new book with color pages throughout, never before published cast interviews, behind the scenes photos, and lots of surprises! If you're a Munsters fan, you'll be blown away by this new book. I hope so, anyway. (So....for the trivia buffs: Which of the more frequent Gilligan guest stars appeared also on The Munsters, but in voice only?)

Hey Steve, giving any away?

as a matter of fact I did like Here on GI. Has a lot more rare pictures than some of the other books

Hey, thanks, Matt. I try to hunt for the best photos in my books. Illustrations drive most of my books. And you're in for a treat with the new Munsters book. The color reproductions are stunning. No other way to put it.

Mr Cox, you don't happen to know if Russell Johnson filmed any unsold TV pilots do you?

Hi Matt, you don't have to be so formal and call me "Mr. Cox". (I'm just 40). I don't remember Russ discussing any unsold pilots but I can check with him. Has anyone ever found anything about a pilot made in the 60s called, "My Son, the Witchdoctor" ? It starred (or was to star) Artie Johnson, pre-Laugh In, and it was a to be a sitcom made by Filmways Television.

Try the trading post (http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/forumdisplay.php?f=168)here, it is amazing what things people have. I have gotten a hold of a ton of things through it.

Hi Matt,Television.
Hey Coxwriter! QWho is this "Matt" guy? GIilliganfanatic? His profile did not give any name?
He never gave out his nam,e just 'GIilliganFanatic"?

EDIT: Never mind, I just saw the name in yellow text.

CWriter, I still have your book that RUssell Johnson wrote with you "Here on GI".
