RIP Little Buddy

Sigh.

Actor Bob Denver, knownfor his role as Gilligan of "Gilligan's Island" and Maynard G. Krebs of "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis," died this past Friday at age 70.

I really liked "Gilligan's Island," and still do. Of course, my favorite character is Professor Roy Hinkley. Russell Johnson is still alive as far as I can tell. Dawn Wells and Tina Louise (Mary Ann and Ginger) are still alive, too. Mr. Howell (Jim Backus) died in '89, the Skipper (Alan Hale) died in '90, and Mrs. Howell (Natalie Schafer) died in '91. Charles Maxwell, the voice on the radio, died in '93.

I'm going to go watch some television now.
