Title: A great television show for classic TV fans
Review: One of the worst things that ever happened to "Gilligan's Island" -- or 62 of the worst things, in this case 62 episodes of the television show -- was the fact that it went from black and white to color after the first season. And this isn't because the series was bad -- of course it was, one of the campiest television programs of all time, but that was part of it's charm -- but because once the network began airing the series in color, the earlier black and white episodes were largely forgotten by both the fans and networks alike; few, if any, markets were eager to syndicate the monochrome episodes when there were more than enough color ones to fill the time-slots. Which was their loss and ours, because these 34 episodes are among the finest produced during the show's three-season run. Definitely recommended for fans of the series, color or no color.
Is the review positive or negative?
