Russell Johnson !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! at his Washington state home yesterday. He was 89. Now Tina Louise (Ginger) and Dawn Wells (Mary Ann) are the last surviving cast members of Gilligan's Island.

Gosh, I still remember the passing of Natalie Schafer like it was yesterday. That was in 1991! I'm getting old.

The guy could fix a radio using a coconut and a palm leaf, but he couldn't fix the boat? Now they'll never get off the island.

I know that Mary Ann usually wins by a 3-to-1 margin, but I cast my vote for Ginger. I like redheads.

Maybe he didn't want to get off the island. I know I wouldn't.

I have to go with ginger too. Basically because wholesome just isn't my thing.

Man,that sucks. The Professor and Scotty on Star Trek were the guys who GOT SHIT DONE (Caps never big enough) in my formative years,munching PB&J and Frito's in front of the mammoth RCA wood console television.Would there ever even have been a McGuyver without them? I have to go drink something containing Coconut tonight.
