Me: I like Gilligan and Monkees better - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Just sayin'...

I enjoy them as well. Maybe Antenna TV can add these programs in the Fall 2020.

SitcomsHeydayfan · 06-08-2020, 03:46 AM

Me too.

I just wish they had new episodes of Gilligan's Island!

P.S. I just like GI not the Monkees unless the Monkees were on Gilligan's Island!

Charley Knox · 06-08-2020, 12:58 PM

More than likely, Gilligan will probably be back on the schedule within a year. I wish they would give Hogan's Heroes an extended break!
Right now, I am Rockin Around the Clock with the first season of Happy Days and Laverne & Shirley. Don't really care for Mamas Family at 5. Would have been really neat, if they had temporarily acquired the rights to Gidget for the Summer of ME.

I also love "The Monkees" and "Gilligan's Island" as well as "Happy Days" and "Laverne and Shirley". (That's 4 out of my Top 10!) I watch great shows like this on CHCH in Canada every day and I hope they can add Gilligan in the fall because I haven't seen it on TV in a long time - or the Brady Bunch either.

I also think Merlin Jones is a cool name. It reminds me of the movies that Annette Funicello used to do when she wasn't making the beach movies. All of them were great!

I enjoyed watching Laverne and Shirley and Happy days yesterday !

Season 1 Happy Days was really good!!

There's supposed to be a Monkees marathon on Decades starting next weekend, June 13th. You can check their schedule.

Be great if Decades was available in my area. If I had Decades, I could watch it during the week and watch METV on the weekends. Be neat to see the Lost Episodes of The Honeymooners and Dark Shadows.

If they were going to replace GI I wish it was with Batman or Get Smart!

I agree. Mama's Family doesn't really fit in with Happy Days and Laverne & Shirley. Gidget would be good, since all three shows are about teens and/or young people.

Get Smart would be great.

I haven't seen "Get Smart" on TV in a long time myself but that will finally change this fall when CHCH adds it to their fall schedule along with other great shows that haven't been on in years: "Gilligan's Island", "Green Acres", "The Brady Bunch" (Finally!!!), "The Beverly Hillbillies", and "The Odd Couple", all in one place!

Antenna and Me simply fail by comparison.

To the OP: You like Gilligan and Monkees better than what? Nothing else listed that you compared them to...
