Can you tell the difference between dreams and reality on Gilligan’s Island?

Were these robots, secret agents, vampires and pirates real or imagined?

 

Though the premise of Gilligan’s Island forced it to take place in one location, the show used plenty of creative workarounds to keep things interesting. All kinds of people visited the island and the professor's gadgets were always fascinating — if a little farfetched.

The best way the classic sitcom switched things up was through dream sequences. Not that Gilligan’s Island needed a dream sequence to bend the rules of reality.

We've collected these far-out scenes from the show. Can you guess if they really happened to the characters or were just from someone's imagination?

Watch Gilligan's Island on MeTV!

Sundays 3 & 3:30 PM

*available in most MeTV markets
  1. Did Gilligan really turn into a vampire or is this a dream?
  2. Was there really a lion on the island or is this a dream?
  3. Is this scene from a dream or reality?
  4. What about this scene?
  5. Gilligan became the invisible man! Or did he just dream it?
  6. Is this Mary Ann for real or Dawn Wells playing a character in someone's dream?
  7. Was there really robot on the island or did someone dream it?
  8. Is this scene a dream or reality?
  9. Were the Skipper and Gilligan really held captive or did one of them just dream it?
  10. Are these real astronauts (in the show) or did someone dream about space?
  11. Is this scene reality or part of a dream?
  12. Is this a real character or someone from a dream?

You got 12 out of 12 - You did great on this quiz, that's no lie! I know my TAGS and my Gilligan's Island too!! The episodes with the dream sequences are some of the funniest and my favorites. I hate how syndication has cut out part of the dreams.

Just a question to all the MeTV lovers out there. Am I the only person under 13 who absolutely LOVES MeTV and it is the only channel they watch and they love it? I feel like I am the only one... It is always asking about old stuff like old retired candies and other vintage stuff and I am a little confused. Can anyone out there relate?
* This past Saturday night when MeTV showed 2 hours of 3 Stooges with mostly Shemp after just 1 Curly short I switched to Antenna TV to watch Welcome Back Kotter to escape from Shemp!

I loved those dopey dreams! They were better than the actual show. I still laugh when I see Mr. and Mrs, Howell dancing that goofy go-go after that dignified waltz in the Cinderella dream!!!

* I still say entire series should've ended like Newhart with Maynard G. Krebs waking up from a dream!

When I watch Gilligan's Island, I'd better pay more attention to the show rather than the eye candy that is Tina Louise (my personal favorite) and Dawn Wells.

10/12 Distinguishing reality from a dream is hard enough. Yet alone on GI.

Really! They could have at least tried to make it more challenging.
