The Skipper and The Professor Knew Each Other!

News Flash! - The Skipper and The Professor knew each other before their fateful Three Hour Tour!

For all you youngsters  in case you don't know what I am referring to, I'm talking about the TV show Gilligan's Island.

The Casey Jones TV show aired from 1957-1958. Alan Hale (AKA The Skipper) played the lead part of Casey Jones. Seven years before Gilligan's Island.

One episode of Casey Jones features none other than The Professor (AKA Russell Johnson) as a rouge western guy causing havoc.

Watch the video. The Professor is the guy walking the tracks at the beginning.

All those years on the Island and they never alluded to the fact that they had met before!

  1. I knew Gilligan's Island was not as innocent as they made it to appear! They knew each other before the cruise? Wow.
