However, thanks to their growing popularity with fans, and at the behest of series star Bob Denver, “the Professor and Mary Ann” were added to the opening starting in season 2.

The boat was named after an FCC chairman

Fans remember that their wrecked tour boat was called the S.S. Minnow, but it wasn’t named after the fish — it was reportedly named after FCC chairman Newton Minow.

Minow is most famous for describing American television as a “vast wasteland” due to what he saw as poor quality programming. Series creator Sherwood Schwartz decided to name the shipwreck after him as a tongue-in-cheek dig.

So Sorry, My Island

In the memorable episode So Sorry, My Island, we see the first appearance of Vito Scotty as a World War II Japanese sailor — only he doesn’t know the war has long been over. Arriving in a one-man submarine, he comes ashore and takes the castaways captive.

Naturally, Gilligan and the Skipper hatch a plan to steal the submarine, but there’s a little snag: the Skipper can’t fit inside. So, Gilligan takes over, zooming around the lagoon in what we’re supposed to believe is a submarine.

But here’s the funny part: there’s no real submarine. First, if you look closely, you can actually spot someone’s flippers popping out of the water. Then, when the periscope is supposedly being piloted by Gilligan, it’s actually attached to a diver swimming below. You can’t see the diver, but for a split second, you can see their air tank rising above the water.
