  • My dad was one of the writers. He'd be so pleased to know that this show is still watched and loved. RIP Charles Tannen. :(
  • @alanderson9711
    Met the skipper at his LA restaurant decades ago and he greeted with a warm handshake and enjoyed our comments about him and his dad rather than talking about GI. Came across as a Real Nice Guy.
  • @timlabell
    I grew up at that studio. I spent countless hours running around dodge city and Gilligan's lagoon. Swam in that nasty water. Great pic's 👍. You have brought back memories of me going to work every day with my uncle and hanging out with Ron Howard on the set,riding our bikes all through Gunsmoke. What a blast .1970 to 1973. Thanks for this
  • @johnweir3168
    I remember Bob Denver saying his idea for ending the show was to have the castaways stand at the edge of the lagoon and the camera pan out and back showing Los Angeles and the highways surrounding the "island."
  • The professor was a Navigator on a B-24 bomber during WW2 serving in the Pacific Theatre
  • @leatherneck7501
    I got to meet Dawn Wells at the World of Wheels in Birmingham Alabama . She was just so Awesome.
  • As a boater, the coolest shot is the opening one, where you see the marina filled with classic wooden yachts.
  • Wow! This is incredible research—thank you so much. It’s sad the lagoon was paved over.
  • I always enjoy "Then and Now" pictures! I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of "They paved paradise and put up a parking lot". It fits this situation perfectly! It seems everyone is in such a hurry to replace old buildings/sites, that they forget the areas are still important to people.
  • @alteregos8949
    Great video. Love looking back into the past and reliving memories of such a great time in television. Thanks for your great detailed work on showing us the changes through time.
  • @bufnyfan1
    I remember when Gilligan's Island first came out--the media hated it--they criticized it every way they could--yet audiences loved it--near the end of its run--the media started to come around to the humor of the show-some comparing the interactions between Alan Hale Jr. and Bob Denver as being like "Laurel and Hardy" or "Abbott and Costello"
  • Another great vlog Rick. I learn something every time I watch your work. I'm hopeful you will continue for a long time! Have a great weekend!
  • @Heyjay454
    Thank you so much for this!! I lived for a while at the very end of Radford Avenue directly across from that horrible parking lot...now I know it was once my favorite lagoon!!
  • @cmailman434
    i work right across the street from CBS Studio Center at the post office where this show was filmed. i hear, because i deliver mail to CBS that there is a very small portion of the lagoon left. They build a walkway over it, so for all you fans, there is a piece of the lagoon still there.
  • @kevinbyrne4538
    The series lasted only 3 seasons?! In reruns, there seem to have been 35,000 episodes.
  • Great video Nick!!! Love the historical perspective. The shows of the 60's were and will be some of the best ever made. Wish the lagoon was still there. Would be great to visit. Thanks again!
  • @dm91214
    Outstanding work. I love this kind of fun research. These places are haunted with rich history and it’s wonderfully disseminated here and your other videos. Thanks.
  • Thanks for that awesome video. The historical value alone is very cool. Hope to see more before and after videos of these good old shows. Thanks again.
  • that was fun to watch thank you for all the research and time making this video 💯😎⭐
