That’s a great story!

rkam, did Alan wore the Skipper hat? I heard from his widow that Alan always wore the Skipper hat because he loved the role so much.

@@kenterminateddq5311 actually he wore the entire outfit he wore on the set... Hat and all

I heard Alan was NOTHING like The Skipper or Archie Bunker who were loud and angry. I heard the opposite, Alan Hale Jr. was a sweet teddy bear of a human being. @@rkam278

Thanks for sharing. He and his dad were amazing actors. You can just tell the Hale's were kind people not to mention the others pictured in this video. Thanks for posting.

Absolutely agree-watched these shows during my childhood and always enjoyed them--to all those who have since passed away RIP you were all wonderful and will always be missed

Don’t forget Richard

Not to mention Gilligan himself, Bob Denver.

So many of us *almost* view these people as distant relatives. They are and were dear to our hearts. Thank you for posting this.

Why isn't Julie Newmar on here?

Did you date with her?

Nice to share that. Thank you.

Thought you were going to say his daughter was indeed an Egg Head in college

He frightened me when I was a kid.

He was (and still is) a legendary actor. Mostly known for his horror roles, which is a shame because he did so much more than that.

Vincent did lots of suspense type thriller movies, but I loved it when he did comedy! It was so easy for him. As Moses once said to him "Then, kill me master butcher"! Of course, that wasn't a comedy, but I wish Vincent would have done more comedies!

Who is By George ?

Was he also Mr. Magoo?

@jayniekinser7029 indeed he was!

He and professor made a bunch of westerns.

The Professor is a war hero 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

He owned a food counter he wasn't acrimal chief O'Hara friend

Alan Hale was the Skipper

RIP!!!!

Every time he smiles or laughs, I melt! What a darling!

I met Alan Hale at a charity event many years ago. We had a drink together. He was very down to earth and friendly.

I read a biography about him. Apparently he loved his role as the Skipper. It never bothered him to be known for that role. I named one of my dogs Gilligan. He was a stray who was in really bad shape, rescued by a client of the vet clinic where I work. When he was well enough, he was allowed to run around the clinic and he always followed me, so I called him my little buddy. So, when he became my dog, the name choice was obvious.

Alot of actors hated being so closely associated with a character they played for so many years after production ended, but Alan Hale absolutely relished dressing up as, and being in his 'Skipper' character. He was always happy to oblige fans with a friendly greeting, a photo and an autograph. A really wonderful man.

He lived his "Skipper" persona because he knew how much joy it brought to people (and I think he liked it too).

@@alparkranger I wonder why Gilligan wasn't there.

So good to hear stuff like that. Thank you.

Several responses referred to reading. No way would that be a popular response now.

Adam West died??

He was the only batman. The others all of them were fake. To the batmobile Robin

Great guy, but couldn't act to save his soul. A brick had more emotion than he did when he was in front of the camera.

I met her a few years back as well. She was gracious, friendly, and beautiful. We talked about the show and she answered every question i asked her. I asked her if she had any souvenirs from the show. She told me she still had a pair of red shorts that she wore home from the last day of taping. At that time they didn’t know the show was going to be cancelled. She did ask me if I was a Ginger or Mary Ann guy. I told her I was a Ginger guy on Saturday nights, and Mary Ann the rest of the week. She told me she loved my answer. I’ll never forget how wonderful her perfume smelled. I got a kiss on the cheek from Mary Ann that night. What a memory.

@@charlieromeo7663 That's awesome. Would have been nice to meet her.

Probably his type. Looking for a little action.

How I would have love to meet him. I had that exact same experience with James Belushi when I was An Extra of one of his shows. Totally good guy!

@@carlsaganlives5112 if this is a gay remark, I can’t or won’t speak for the dead, as for me I was dropped off from work and noticed the crowd and movie set ups so I eased over enough to catch Mr. West completing a couple of takes when they yelled “cut “. So being from Massachusetts, I watched a little of how they wrapped things up and that’s when Mr. West spoke to me. I went home and told my wife, kids, friends, and even called my parents and told them. I was a kid when Batman was a very popular television show. But as a grown man, in my early thirties then, it was a different experience.

@@magovenor It's ok, you don't need to supply a troll with an answer. Some people are just out to get a rise from others.

Is that why they didn't make him walk to the buzzer stand?

​@@JackiePhillipsTheSocialPet Yes.

Yes, still sharp. I was shocked that the “strong drink” didn’t make the “how to relax” question. (Vincent Price’s “gardening,” as well.)

Dawn Wells always seemed to be very down-to-earth unlike most celebrities.

Accept Family Feud with Richard Dawson happened in the 80s

You should watch High School USA sometime it has a virtual who's who cast of 60s TV stars. Including Bob Denver

@@francishelvey2251 this particular episode was in the 70s I believe

It is. If only Ginger was in also. It would be the best ever. Lol

I always say go for Mary Ann because she can cook. You can only look for so long.Plus Mary Ann is very pretty so you get it all.

Amen to that! And that''s a fact, Jack! I was 15 yrs old when Gilligan's Island first premiered on TV in the mid-sixties. Always, still, would prefer/ take Mary Ann over Ginger. Friend, Girlfriend, Wife...however and whatever! RIP, Dawn Wells...millions of us loved you; and Ginger, too...sadly, Tina Louise who played Ginger, is the last one still alive from the cast of Gilligans Island.

Hmmm,I take it the castaways were never rescued from the dreaded island.

True, he was on the "Thriller" album...

Love Vincent Price!

agreed, and also Boris Karloff (William Pratt) was said to be a true gentleman by those who knew him

Darla Reddell he was epic in our American culture

The best is always saved for the end. It's classy so they don't upstage the rest.

Vincent Price as Dr. Phibes !!!

he was not a regular on the show and they probably wanted to line-up boy -girl -boy girl

yes.!!!!!!

they don't call him the Tingler for nothing

He can play an evil mad scientist or sorcerer.

I recall his wife saying that “The Skipper” was an alter ego for him. She said something to the effect of, “when he put that hat on, he wasn’t Alan; he was The Skipper.

I read that he dressed as the Skipper for guests at his seafood restaurant! :-)

Yeah I heard he was a very optimistic and very nice person

'cause* actors*

And to think that Carrol O'Connor once auditioned for the "Skipper" role!

Actually, although I LOVED both Batman & Gilligan's Island (& still do), they were pretty stupid, insipid shows. Compare them to today's Golden Age of TV (HBO, Showtime, Netflix, Starz, BBC, PBS, AMC, the networks, Amazon Prime, Paramount, etc., etc.). There are SO MANY great, well-written shows today, it's impossible to watch a quarter of them. There's a reason why big name movie actors are falling all over themselves to do TV. Whereas, back in 1983, TV was still looked down on by movie actors. Part of that was unfair stigma, but it's partly because there hasn't been this many great shows since the original Golden Age of TV.

You mean egg-citing?

@@divadina2069 Let's not forget Julie Newmar.

I first saw Lee Meriwether in Barnaby Jones, and saw the 1966 Batman movie a little while later. Always loved Dawn Wells, and Yvonne Craig as Batgirl. I knew she had guest-starred on Star Trek and The Wild, Wild West, and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, but I was also pleased to find out that she had been on McHale's Navy, My Favorite Martian and even The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis. '60s tv series had many female stars who ushered us into manhood, even in syndication in the '70s; I'd like to add Marta Kristen from Lost in Space to the list. And in its third and final season, Angela Cartwright(hope I'm spelling it right). She was always a cute kid, who grew up to become a very lovely young lady.

yup they make halle barry look like the skinniest olson twin

How about Casey Jones , the engineer for the Cannonball train ? Other westerns, too. Misses my little buddy.

Alan Hale was a class act and always golly!

I met him at a boat show in Del Mar... Total gentleman, genuine and friendly - shook my hand and looked me in the eye. I will never forget that day.

The Skipper should have lost weight after only a few weeks on Gilligan's Island, because there would not have been plentiful food. The actor must have eaten well.

He played Cole Younger too.Is Burt Ward gay then?My aunt would be dev'd.

Mine too...

The Professor outsmarted Bruce Wayne.

He could build a radio out of a freakin' coconut, but he couldn't build them a boat??

Idk Bruce Wayne is a pretty smart dude, AND a millionaire.

The Professor has a very sharp mind in real life.

@@williamnorkelun1468 And couldn't build them a boat...when they already had a boat that just needed to be repaired!

You are very correct.. He even had a Restaurant called Skippers on La Cienaga near Santa Monica Blvd in Hollywood! I was a teen in the early 80s and used to walk by the restaurant that was closed by that time but still had the impression of the Skippers sign on the top of it. I looked up the history and Alan Hale used to love a good steak and seafood like me and I wish I had been able to visit it wnen it was open, because Alan was known to hang out and greet the guests!! It also was said to have terrific food!!

They had class and were terrific.

Yes to both!

@Bill Henderson So then, are you implying that today's actors DON'T have torrid affairs..? Wanna see some modern celebrity porn videos..?

They had a LOT of class and were MORE than absolutely terrific. Classy, intelligent, and more. Far above today's "celebrities".

Dawson wouldn't survive in today's politically charged environment.

Gilligan’s Island and Batman were both vulgar. I like vulgar tv shows which is why I watched them.

@@patfromamboy I've seen Gilligan's Island in its entirety multiple times. Compared to television now, I can't think of a single moment I would call "vulgar".

Lee Meriwether also a classic beauty like Dawn Wells

Yeah she was very attractive. She also aged like a fine wine and she was beautiful in her 20's and 70's. She was a sweetheart on and off the camera and helped with many charitable causes. She is missed

BUZZR LET'S PLAY

Tina Louise was a exception, prefer to not to associate with the reunions shows after the series ended. She wasn't friends with Dawn Wells. I'm not sure about the others though

When you work on a set you are there 12 hours a day many days. Met my best friend on a set over a decade ago. Still friends!😊

Yes.

Yet with you look at compilations of dumb game show answers, only about 20% are from the last two or three decades. Most are from this video's era, including such classics as "a 40-year-old woman is 10 Decades old" and "favorite rodent is a pool table."

And we're supposed to assume YOU are smart? Why?

People of that time were kinder and more caring. I grew up in that time. And I thank God that I did! The core family unit was prevalent. Today... not so. And that shows in society. And in terrible ways!

Yeah, it's creepy. Gene Rayburn is at least more subtle on Match Game.

@Q In 5D There were more than a few of times when it was the women who were going overboard to kiss Richard. I know thinking back to how I felt when it was on the are, and how I view it now -- it wasn't the kissing that made it seem "eww", it was the way he did it. I think that was a deliberate persona he adopted for the show... the game show host who is a casa nova, the kind of guy who would say, "Come back to the dressing room after the show if you want to." It's also part of why we say "eww" when we say "eww" when we see the picture of Joe Biden sniffing women's hair, when at the time it actually happened, it would have been done to adopt a persona of "I'm that nice old guy who gives you hugs and makes you feel nice". What happened to those persona's? Richard's was a "sexy" persona that people in the 70s and 80s would identify as being cool, and back then it wasn't considered inappropriate to proposition women since the woman could just say no, toss a drink in your face, or even slap you (today she'd get sued for that), etc. Today, Richard's persona is being stomped out by a bunch of misguided #metoo trolls who think predators advertise publicly. They don't. It's the producer who treats 9 out of 10 actresses with respect and professionalism publicly, so that he can pressure the 10th on into sex and if she goes public, there is a line of character witnesses to shame the accuser. As for Joe Biden's persona, "Grandpa Joe"... we have gone from being a culture that was hands on, where kids hugged their parents, aunts and uncles... to a culture so taken aback by the stories of missed red flags about the relative who was later accused of abusing someone in the family. So now, Grandpa doesn't shake his grandson's hand and give a kiss to his grandaughter -- they both get handshakes, and that is a sad thing, because it makes the grandaughter feel like she is supposed to grow up like her brother, and not a woman. Meanwhile the brother looks around and sees his sister getting complimented on her firm handshake, and wonders what it means to be a man.

No, it’s just before the internet and today’s media when celebs could keep their dirty laundry and activities a secret.

Did everyone seriously miss the cocaine cue that Yvonne gave to Richard? Or how Skipper asked if he ever considered making a porno?

Yes, as corny as the characters they played were, they projected class and decency... unlike those today. However, Richard Dawson was a known creep even back in the 1960s.

He was so underrated in terms of his comedic ability.

She looked the same as when she was stranded on the island.

Really? Amazing.

I saw a picture of her as a silent film actress from the 1920's. She was a doll.

Lol! I'm going to say that tomorrow to a random person!
