The final episode of Gilligan's Island was broadcast on April 17, 1967. Never a critical favorite, the show was still a solid ratings hit and the cast and crew had every expectation of returning in the fall for a 4th season. But at the last minute CBS needed to find some room on the schedule for Gunsmoke, the favorite show of Babe Paley, wife of network president William Paley. So Gilligan got the axe and, at least as far as viewers know, the cast is still stranded somewhere in the Pacific. 48 years after that final wrap party, however, Gilligan's Island is still on the air. It was sold into syndication and has been broadcasting reruns continuously in 30 different languages around the world. If you watched Gilligan's Island did you enjoy it?
