Left to right: Marie as Maryanne, Aiden as Skipper, Prince Arthur as Gilligan (fitting), Baby as the Professor, Karma as Ginger, Sorceress as Mrs. Howell, the Lurker as Mr. Howell… and of course Princess Heather as the S.S. Minnow.
I always thought Mary Ann was the hottie compared to Ginger…. but now, with Karma — I’d be hard pressed to take one over the other. And, much as I am an old fart white bread kind of guy… Babe is still my fave knockout… even in an old starched shirt. (although the new, bigger than life sized Princess Heather (minus her boat) is in the top five now.

1) I wasn’t born for another 20 years from then.
2) I am not an American so I don’t get much of your obscure pop culture references. It took me hours to find out what south parks season 16 finally “Obama wins” was referring to for instance.

For what it’s worth, I’m not from the U.S. either. Also, while the show has been over for 40+ years, there are still some nostalgia channels that play reruns even today, in foreign languages. That’s how popular it was.

Can I get a ride on that three hour tour?

Baby as the Professor? Would love to know the thought process that led to *that* one! (I might have given the role to the Sorceress.)

On the path to great knowledge and wisdom, the first step is to become as a young child…

Had to sing the song single her out has Proffessor.

The Professor never looked this good. 🙂

I don’t think I recognize everyone in this line-up. Several, maybe most, but not all. Can someone I.D. them all for me?

Sir Thane is Skipper. Prince Albert is Gilligan. You got the rest right.

The show saw never aired where I grew up so I had to look it up.
The Lurker does actually look a bit like Howell (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0e/Thurston_Howell%2C_III.jpg)
Thanks for the smile, not to mention an opportunity to learn a bit more about American cultural phenomena.

Thane and Albert look REALLY different in modern(ish) clothes. ^^
The Phantom's Belch
Arthur, Albert… I knew it started with an A. 🙂
And Thane? *looks closer* Okay, I see it.

I blinked. Did a triple take, then laughed myself out of my chair. So…success! 😀 Awesome pic!

Glad you loved it. This was all Wondollar’s idea and it works perfectly.

Maybe the Minnow’s engines need a good cleaning… 😉
I’m sure it’d be a much nicer ship after. 😀

It’d never work; she’d be able to get them off the island, then. 😉

I saw what you did there. “Get them off…” 😉

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Poor Heather!

Infusions of humility can be good for the soul.
Jaycee
Heather’s soul must be pure by now, then.

Doubtful. It’s accumulated a lot of dirt over the years and needs some more rinsing.

So you’re voting for more faerie cruelty?

Cruelty no shenanigans definitely Yes 😀

I get the feeling that this is supposed to refer to something but the reference is too obscure to google
Jaycee
Gilligan’s Island. A classic TV show from the 70’s.

That’d be the 70’s that ran from 1964-67.
