Why didnt they all leave the island together??

The first episode has the radio announcer introducing the characters by name while reporting the S.S. Minnow lost at sea.

The Castaways did leave the island briefly with Dr. Boris Balinkoff (Vito Scotti) but, for reasons, ended up stranded again.

Plenty of guests made it to the island but the show would have been over if The Castaways ever got to leave-- it would spoil the situation in Situation Comedy.

Unrelated, but my big question is how did anyone sleep on the island when, as revealed in the episode, Up At Bat, the usual night temperature hovered around 96°F? Talk about night sweats.. Geez!

Wow 96 at night???

No AC??? http://img1.pixhost.to/images/7202/621883855_eek.gif
