Okay, why is "Gilligan's Island" your favorite show? Come on, you know it's your favorite!

I have to many reasons, but here we go...

-the Professor and his nerdy short pants that melt my heart... and of course his 'extremely high IQ'

-Fishpie

-The Howells and there rich jokes

-dream sequences

-the show has a very good message

-you can watch it over and over again and never tire from it

-it's original

-the happyness of it

-IsLAnD hApPiEneSS

-the GI message boards!!!!!!

(I have so many more, but I may get emotional *sniff* if I begin to discuss them)

I'll add *Gilligan* himself. That's the main reason I watch. He was so cute and sweet.

Awwwwww!

It's a fun and entertaining show. I would much rather here silly jokes than insult jokes.

The obvious reason to watch is to see sexy Tina Louise!!!!!

For me, there's an innocence about the show that you don't find much anymore in tv land. If Gilligan's Island were being made today, it would probably be much racier, with lots of double entendres', sex jokes and probably some "pairing off" among the castaways. Yeah, a lot of people today find it childish and silly, but for me, it's on of the greatest shows ever.

Gilligan's Island shows the good in people. All the castaways had a good kind of nature. There was never hatred or people being vindictive. It is a great show with a lot of lovable quirks.

It has such wonderful characters, how could it not be one of your favorite shows?

I essentially agree with all the reasons others have given, but, the more I think about it, I would have to add that it came on my local CBS affiliate every weekday afternoon at 3:30 all the time I was in school. I very fondly remember getting off of the school bus, running inside and fixing a snack, and plopping down just in time to hear "sit right back and you'll hear a tale..."

If "Gilligan the Goddess" showed on a Tuesday, "Two on a Raft" would show on Wednesday. I must have watched the entire series 50 times over before there were even VCR's. :) :) :) :)

yep, if we put our differences aside, we can all learn to live together.

uh.... i shudder to think wut the show would be like nowadays...

:mad:

that's the reason i'm not sure about a GI movie... like, look wut they did to poor Dukes of Hazzard! :mad:

I bet the people who call it silly secretly laugh hysterically when Skipper gets hit with a coconut.

A couple of years ago TBS did a reality show loosely based on GI, and it was *terrible*--without a doubt, one of the worst ideas for a show ever. They should just leave the classics alone.
