"What about you, Mr. Howell? Surely you're a member of this take-a-pigeon to lunch bunch!" Love that! LOL

I love the Professor. Sometimes he is the only adult on the island and I love the way he has to scold the others like misbehaved children. You see this in a lot of the episodes.

This was a cute episode. It's funny how Gilligan has no romantic feelings over two beautiful women on the island but can fall in love with a bird.

I love the way the outfits are so colorful.

This was a cute episode. The pigeon worked hard to rescue the castaways unlike all the other guests.

The ending is classic. After being well fed, exercised and taken care of, Walter flies away from the island leaving the happy castaways stranded as usual.

As a former racing pigeon fancier....the initial pigeon is probably a three week old baby. The "fat" silver pigeon is the way a pigeon should look! Cute episode...

The spider in the film was not only creepy but cheesy as hell. Probably would have made an excellent spider for a haunted house tour during the month of October

I like the outfit Ginger is wearing. It is actually very casual for her. A much more practical outfit for island living.

With all that good food surprised Walter would want to leave the island.

Love the way the Professor is so versatile. Now he plays a veterinarian. LOL

RIP Jim Backus, Alan Hale, Bob Denver, Natalie Schafer & Russell Johnson.

What a great series.. they did a wonderful job.

One of my favorite episodes I like birds and pigeons and doves particularly in WW2 pigeons were carrier birds

That pigeon devoured a meal fit for a king - Henry VIII.

My favorite Gilligan's island show.

Amazing how some of these 1960 shows are still on reruns 50 years later.

Love this show and particularly this episode.

Like that line where skipper tells Gilligan he will get a cage for him to share with Walter the pigeon once they get back to Hawaii.

Good ol' Sterling Holloway. He's the only remote guest star.A Burt Lancaster spoof. The Pigeon man of Alcatraz.

A fab episode.

Funny how the Skipper is looking the wrong way when the pigeon flies away.

everyone else always blames gilligan for ruining chances to get off the island....yet the rest of the castaway are just as much to blame as well.........Skipper is the main one he is to impatient and does not like to wait...he wants to get off the island right that moment............Gilligan told Skipper the Professor had the pigeon on a diet to get healthy.......Skipper's Responce was basically "Who cares what the Professor wants" that shows how impatient he is.

I think the pigeon would be better off staying on the island with all that TLC.

Is this the one with the spider? Messed me up to death

Amazing how the Howells and ginger and Mary Ann had so much clothing for a three hour tour. Just a show anyway

I remember this episode. That darn pigeon did a lot of flying!

Pigeons and duck's parrots on Gilligan's island

I wonder who built the tread mill? Not bad.

If all but the Professor didn't overfeed the pigeon,he would've been been able to fly off the island with a note attached in 2 weeks instead of 3.

Wonder how long it takes for a pigeon to fly to Hawaii and back to the island?

Got Milk! Where did Ginger and Mary Ann get milk?? Love the show anyways......

If I remember correctly, doesn't Gilligan forget to tie the last note on the pigeons foot?

All but 1 of the castaways had to overfeed Walter,the pigeon,so that he'd have the strength to fly off the island with a note,but he had to be put on a diet before he could and that it had to take a little longer than when he was going to fly off originally.

He looks like he swallowed a basketball ha

They are all so sheepish and a bit embarrassed to confess what they fed the pigeon to the professor, the only adult figure on the island.

🐦 🦜 ❤️!

Good old fashion entertainment.

Good ole Sterling Holloway as Burt.

Feed that birdie!!

Haha I had a pigeon with the same name..

More than any other TV series -- even more than "I Love Lucy" -- "Gilligan's Island' was television's version of vaudeville. Each episode was a separate skit that existed only to give the cast a chance to deliver funny lines and engage in slapstick. All realistic criticisms of the story lines (Where did the characters -- especially Ginger -- get these limitless wardrobes? With two experienced seamen, a brilliant professor, and an island full of wood, why couldn't they build a boat? How could the island be close enough to Hawaii for enough visitors to fill Madison Square Garden to come and go over the years, and yet too far away to be found?) were as beside the point as it would be to sit in realistic judgment on the zaniness on "The Carol Burnett Show". This wouldn't have been tolerable without first-rate performers -- which "Gilligan's Island" fortunately had.

I would love to see the Skipper lock Gilligan in a cage with that pigeon and throw away the key.

Ginger, mmmmmm
