Customer Reviews of Gilligan's Island: Wrongway Feldman/President Gil
The First Season is Being Released Soon on DVD!! Gilligan's Island is a very silly sitcom but that I think is one of the reasons we fans of the show like it so much! This tape has some great epiodes from the first season President Gilligan and Wrongway Feldman but the complete First season of Gilligan's Island is coming out on DVD February 3, 2004 and personally that's what I would go for. In the first season DVD set you get Wrongway Feldman, President Gilligan and more, plus the episodes are shown in the original black and white and the two episodes on this tape have been colorised and look awful. They have that strange, distorted look that happens when they take black and white film and colorise it and I have to dock points off for that.
Wrongway Feldman and is is a real classic Gilligan!
We really enjoyed these two episodes of Gilligan. It was really funny to watch everyone try to convince Wrongway to do what they wanted him to do. Tina Louise was great in this one! My kids really enjoyed Mr. Howell!
The first appearance of a guest star on "Gilligan's Island"
This video tape offers up another pair of episodes from Season 1 (1964-1965) of "Gilligan's Island," including the first appearance of a guest star on the classic "idiot" situation comedy. Episode #5 "Wrongway Feldman" finds the infamous pilot (Hans Conreid) stuck on the island. His plane has fuel but Wrongway has lost the nerve to fly. Still, Wrongway wants to help and tries to teach Gilligan (Bob Denver) how to fly his ancient plane. I remember first watching this episode as a kid and thinking how unfair it was that even with an airplane at their disposal the Castaways could not get home (I clearly did not understand the premise of a situation comedy at that early age).
Then in Episode #6, "President Gilligan," both the Skipper (Alan Hale, Jr.) and Mr. Howell (Jim Backus) want to be in charge. When the Castaways agree to hold an election for President the pair have alienated the others with the campaign hijinks and it is Gilligan who ends up winning the election. Suddenly, the First Mate of the S.S. "Minnow" is being flattered by everyone else (because they want good jobs in his administration). I keep thinking that there is some sort of social commetary going on in this episode, making it a political satire of some sort. But when I watched this episode again it became clear that "President Gilligan" is incapable of bearing such lofty weight. This is clearly the lesser episode of the two on this particular tape.
