I just saw Alan Hale jr. on an episode of "My Favorite Martian" playing a Texas millionaire. He had the happy smiling eyes and jolly laugh. He looked a lot older, for some reason, than he ever did on Gilligan's Island. If he wasn't perfectly cast as the Skipper then I don't know who else would have been.

I have seen that MFM episode before. TV Land showed it in 2002 or so when it was on the TV Land Kitchsen. It was a real funny episode. You are right, Alan Hale Jr is the best skipper that can ever be. Perfect casting by Sherwood Schwartz
