Actor Russell Johnson From Gilligan's Island Deat at 89
Wow, that's 2 today! Actor Russell Johnson who portrayed Professor Roy Hinkley on Gilligan's Island passed away today from Kidney failure at his home in Washington State. Apparently, he had been ill for awhile and went home to die. This is another show, that I used to love watching, a group of tourist go away for a 3 hr cruise out of Los Angeles and end up stranded on a uninhabited Island in the middle of no where. There was the skipper, his first mate, the professor, a rich couple (the Howell's), an actress, and a country girl (Miss Maryann). However, for an uninhabited Island, they sure got a lot of visitors. hahahaha And there was nothing that the professor couldn't make, a radio, a shower, huts, etc. If you've never seen it b4, please check it out. It was good family fun and lots of laughs. Rest in Peace Russell.
