Don't get cast away! Join the fun, and post your Gilligan-themed haikus! If you're not familiar with, haikus are three line poems:
First line-5 syllables
Second line-7 syllables
Third line-5 syllables
Rhyming is not necessary. They're fun and easy to do!

Another rescue
Ruined by the goofy but still
Lovable first mate

Skipper, brave and sure
Gets mad at but really loves
His little buddy

More and more money
Dollar signs consume his thoughts
Yet he's a swell guy

Lovey Howell, lady
Elegant, refined, though a
Trifle bit ditzy

Sexy movie star
Uses her feminine wiles
To help out her friends

Smart and quite handsome
Prof can do anything but
Get off the island

Nice, sweet, and perky
She cooks and cleans too- the world's
Hottest den mother

Shipwrecked on Island
Gilligan, Skipper, Ginger
Others stranded too!

I just realized, would "Howell" be considered one syllable or two? Anyway,

"Friendly" physician
Makes castaways guinea pigs
For wild mind swapping

Rickles plays bad man
Kidnaps Ginger, Mary Ann
Lovey too-- in slacks!

Japanese Sailor
Doesn't know the war ended
Ginger steams glasses

Good one! Ginger can steam my glasses anytime!:)

Fish and coconuts
Bananas and pineapples
Food choices were few

Lovey and Thurston
Shipwrecked millionaires on isle
Always dress with flair

Who's the prettiest
Have Miss Castaway contest
A gorilla wins

Mars probe crashes down
Feathers make castaways birds
NASA: WTF?

Vegetables ate
Castaways with great powers
Must eat bars of soap

Jonathan Kincaid
Hunting hard for Gilligan
Little buddy wins

Gilligan never
Means to goof up and upset
The skipper so much

Gilligan goofs up
Skipper hits him with his hat
Poor little buddy

Eva Grubb did scam
All, especially Ginger
Stole identity

Salvaged equipment
Castaways make a movie
Award winning film

Mary Ann falls down
Bumps her head, thinks she's Ginger
Confusion ensues

Gilligan goofs up
Skipper yells but then forgives
His little buddy

Miss Ginger Grant (sigh)
Shapely, comely movie star
Flame haired love goddess

Mary Ann Summers
Makes great banana cream pies
From Kansas she hails

Mosquitoes rock band
Gilligan and girls are fans
Just noise to the rest

Gilligan bowling.
Struck by lightning during storm.
Ball now stuck on hand.

Ginger Grant is a
Shipwrecked movie star but she
Still keeps her glamour

I'm loving Zoneboy and OH Nuts' haikus!:)


Ring 'round Gilligan
Castaways do crazy stuff
Doc says: Rob Fort Knox!

A rare butterfly
The pussycat swallowtail
Man with a net seeks

Bonnie too! Great ode to the Mosquitos episode; one of the best ever!:)

I'm loving Zoneboy and OH Nuts' haikus!:)


Thanks, you've come up with some good ones also. :wave:

Stranded together
A three hour tour that went bad
On deserted idle

On Gilligan's Isle
Wrongway Feldman has landed
Will he rescue them?

Duke flexes biceps
Thinks that he is skin and bones
The girls disagree;)

I'll try one.

Men given choice
of Mary Ann or Ginger
Mary Ann of course

OK, some more.


Thurston has a wad
Lovey married him for it
Wasted on island


Lord Beasley shows up
Hunts the rarest of the rare
Beasley gets his tail


Volcano angry
The professor does his thing
Volcano goes poof


Gilligan falls down
Always lands on skipper's head
Expecting Shakespeare?


Maryanne's navel
causes Sherwood Schwartz's censor's
fat heads to explode


Russians bring Vodka
Have contest from their bottle
But somehow Trump wins


Stir you cocoanuts
The professor makes magic
But can't make a boat


Picturesque lagoon
On studio parking lot
Cars in the background


Ginger tells fortunes
Admits that she is a fake
Good thing cleavage not


Gilligan plants seeds
Gargantuan vegetables
Let's make a salad


Radio contest
Fool throws transmitter away
Call helicopter


Why no one rescue
These poor seven castaways?
Then they're unemployed

Japanese sailor
Glasses steamed-up by Ginger
Man likes Hollywood

"My little buddy"
Skipper says to Gilligan
You have goofed this up again!
