I guess Will, Jazz, Hillary and Ashley finally did in the old guy..... I felt like Uncle Phil was my Uncle when I was younger.
Russell Johnson has died of kidney failure at age 89. Were he still stuck on Gilligan's Island, The Professor would have built a dialysis machine from bamboo and coconuts that ran on pedal power.
If he were still on Gilligan's Island do you think he might have finally gotten on with Ginger, who was always coming on to him. Tina Louise's daughter has said that in the movie remake of the sitcom that the Professor should be openly gay. I don't wonder at all why Gilligan always screwed up attempts to get off the island. He would never have stood a chance with such hot babes back on the mainland
Staying with the theme of 70's sitcoms, Dave Madden, who played Reuben Kincaid on The Partridge Family, died today at age 82.
The Professor could make a nuclear reactor out of coconuts and sea shells but apparently could not fix a hole in a boat. Gay, my ass. With competition like Gilligan and the Skipper, he was doing both Mary Ann and Ginger and probably Mrs. Howell, too. Prof liked it on that island.
