Skipper Duke

Season 1 Big Man on a Little Stick. Skipper:"Gilligan was out fishing, and this is what we landed." Ginger:"Wow, what did you use for bait?"

Confession time! I've found my spirit animal in Alf - we're talking Gilligan's Island SUPERFAN levels! Who else is with me? Alf's obsession with the castaways would make us BFFs, and I'm here for it! Share your favorite GI moments, and let's get this island party started! #GilligansIslandForever #AlfMeetsGI #IslandVibesOnly

Dukes Trivia: Boss Hogg gets a new walkway to the Courthouse every month because he owns the concrete company, and the concrete is designed to self-destruct in 30 days. True or False?

Season 4 Dukes in Danger. When Luke misses Leeman and Hammer with the first arrow. Luke:"Dang it! I missed 'em!" and Leeman's bullet hits the windshield. Bo:"Yeah! Well, they didn't!" Luke:"I guess not! Holy smokes!" Bo:"You better hit 'em this time Luke!" Luke:"You got that right!" 2nd arrow lands in the road making explosion and Hammer drives off the road. Luke:"Alright!" Bo:"Yeah hoo!"

Season 4 Dukes in Danger. Chasing escaped convicts Leeman and Hammer to bring them to justice. They're shooting at the General Lee. Bo:"Them boys ain't kiddin' around!" Luke (Sliding out the window with bow and dynamite tipped arrow ready to shoot back.):"Neither am I. Let's see how they like dynamite!"

Season 6 Lulu's Gone Away Waylon Jennings:"Now, anybody who would kidnap Lulu Hogg is figurin' on 2 long shots. First, it would be easier to steal a buffalo. Second, who says old Boss would pay to get her back?"

Season 2 Follow That Still. When Boss Hogg and Rosco are in Boss Hogg's new war memorial a tank. At the Boars Nest. Trying to get it positioned for set up for the visitors. Rosco is driving it, Boss Hogg is peaking out the peep hole telling him where and when to stop. He crashes into the Boars Nest. Boss Hogg:"HOLD IT! Yer breakin' up the Boars Nest!" Rosco:"Yeah. I did scuff it a little bit didn't I?" Boss Hogg:"You sure did!" He backs up and crashes into the front of Boss Hogg's Cadillac. The front bumper falls off. Boss Hogg:"HOLD IT! Yer destroyin' my car!" Rosco:"No. I just knocked the front bumper off a little bit." Boss Hogg:"It's good enough right here! Leave it, before you wreck the whole place!"

Season 1 Daisy's Song Daisy Duke:"Gee, I knew it tough to get into show business, but I never heard of them usin' guns to keep you out." Luke Duke:"Well, those .44 magnums convinced me." Daisy Duke:"Why would a music publisher need a bodyguard?" Luke Duke:"I don't know." Bo Duke:"I just don't like bein' sent home with my tail tucked." Luke Duke:"Hey. We can't go home, tucked or otherwise. Now, Jesse said "Either get the royalties or Daisy's 50 bucks back" we ain't got either." Bo Duke:"Well, maybe we could reason with Starr, if his trained ape wasn't around." Daisy Duke:"How do you plan to do that?" Bo Duke:"What's the last thing he expects right now?" Luke Duke:"A fat man in a red suit drivin' reindeer!" Bo Duke:"No, us! We'll use Stonewall Jackson's old tactic! When they think yer runnin' away, you attack." Luke Duke:"Stonewall Jackson had the Confederate Army! I got you!" Bo Duke (Pointing at the car):"An' General Lee!" Daisy Duke:"Ok boys. Now I'm gonna be in the back with the motor runnin', in case this doesn't work out." Luke Duke:"An' it won't!" Bo Duke:"Luke, if you don't believe in this, then how come yer doin' it?" Luke Duke:"Because facin' a gorilla with 2 guns is easier than facin' Jesse. Come on, let's go!" Now Daisy, you pay real close attention alright."

Gilligan's Island Trivia: The Lagoon was only but a pond 4 feet deep, and went nowhere. They added that curve around corner at the end to give the illusion of the Lagoon dumping into the Ocean.

Gilligan's Island Fun Fact: Sometimes Lagoon scenes were delayed due to noise of rush hour traffic on the Los Angeles Freeway.

I like how Deputy Barney Fife sorts mail in Mayberry North Carolina in The Andy Griffith Show. He's sitting near the trash can. He rattles off who it's for and if it's for "Occupant." He drops it in. The Fred Sanford mail sorting in Watts Los Angeles in Sanford and Son is very comical too. "Put it back in the mailbox!" I laughed so hard at this Sanford and Son scene. Lamont Sanford:"Pop, look at all these bills! Now, what are we gonna do about them?" Fred Sanford:"Well, I told you what to do with 'em. But, you wouldn't listen to me. I said-" Lamont Sanford:"Yeah, yeah, yeah! I know, "put 'em back in the mailbox!" Fred Sanford:"Well, then, why didn't you?" Lamont Sanford:"Pop, will you be serious!?" Fred Sanford:"I am bein' serious! You put 'em back in the mailbox, we never received 'em!" In our world, the real world, as tempting as Fred and Barney's methods are, they're unfortunately not an option. Because not like them, we'll go to jail.

I join you on that. Lol.

Red flags with my October 3 2020 Bluenox Sialkot Pakistan Skipper's hat Cap I bought. Mom later repaired to Mouse Braid to match Alan Hale Jr. # Red Flags: 1. _Lack of transparency_: No "Replica" mention in the title. 2. _Suspiciously low price_: $38 for a rare, unique Authentic Mouse Braid rope design. 3. _Hidden shipping costs_: Making the initial price seem deceptively low. 4. _False scarcity_: "Hurry! Other buyers are interested" message to rush a decision. 5. _Unreasonable time pressure_: Same-day 12-hour window to complete the purchase. "The whole transaction was just chucked full of red flags. It had more red flags in it than the movie Caddyshack had Gopher holes." Lol.

"Hey fellow Gilligan's Island fans! Skipper here, sharing some fascinating insights about the iconic Skipper's hat. Did you know that the Benford Yacht Hat and Midway Uniform Cap Co. hat are essentially interchangeable, with the only difference being the embroidery style? The Benford Yacht Hat features hand-embroidered Gold Bullion Wire, while the Midway hat has a machine-made, sewn-on patch. In hindsight, the $262.05 Benford Yacht Hat is essentially a premium version of the $65 Midway hat. It's worth noting that the Gorget rope design is standard on the Midway catalog version, but it's only accurate for Alan Hale's appearance in the 1987 Alf episode "Somewhere Over the Rerun." In all other instances, including the original Gilligan's Island series and movies, the Skipper's hat features Mouse rope. Share your thoughts, and let's keep the Gilligan's Island spirit alive! #GilligansIsland #SkippersHat #MidwayUniformCapCo #BenfordYachtHat"
