Has METV ever written an article about the Pilot Episode of Gilligan's Island? John Gabriel played the
Professor before Russell Johnson.
Also actresses Nancy McCadthy and
Kit Smythe were the other Two
Cast members in the pilot.
One of the women had the name

First name of the other woman.
Gilligan's Island creater Sherwood

Let's see: the Howells, Skipper & Gillian, Ginger & the Professor, Mary Ann...7 castaways!
When Gilligan met Wrong Way
Feldman and Dubov the painter
Didn't Wrong Way Feldman and
Dubov the painter say that they
were already living on the
Island before the seven castaways arrived on the island
I wonder why Wrongway Feldman and Dubov didn't run
Into each other before Gilligan
And his fellow castaways arrived.
