  1. Yeah if people watch those YouTube videos of filming locations Then and Now it can be misleading cuz the one from Now still has the bridge there. From before demolition.
  2. I wonder if George LeBay ever bought his condo. If he wanted to move back to Rock Bridge he'd be out of luck cuz the house is gone. Lol.
  3. I bring you some sad news about a few Christine filming locations. The bridge from the over pass, under which she chased and killed Moochie Welch in the "You ain't mad are ya?" scene is no longer there. Torn down. The property has had a development done in recent years since the movie. Also Roland D. LeBay's house is gone since recently. The property on which brother George LeBay sold Arnie Cunningham the car at.
  4. I heard the remains of that gas station they made specifically to blow up still stand today. It was fabricated. Not a real station. Built just to be blown up. Also Mobico is a fictional name. Something I wonder about, in that scene, why didn't Buddy Repperton try that tow truck at the station. Check if it was unlocked. If the keys were inside, or he could've hotwired it, he could've made a getaway in that truck. A friend on Facebook she said:"Would have ruined the scene." Me:"Yeah plus mom would say to me "You ain't supposed to think of that!" "The script didn't tell him to try that tow truck!" She'd say. My Facebook friend:"If he was panicking, he would not be thinking straight." Me:"That too. According to the movie, best way to getaway from a pissed off flaming demonic possessed car is to run straight right up the middle of the road."
  5. Had an argument with a guy on Facebook last night in a Gilligan's Island group forum page over there, he kept insisting "Alan Hale Jr.'s Yacht Captain Skipper Hats Caps were dark Navy Blue." I kept insisting "No they were Black always Black. Never Blue." He blocked me. Some people can't handle the truth or being corrected. Lol. Plus I got it straight from the former owner of Lancaster Uniform Cap Co. They told me "It's never been dark Blue. It's always been Black. We've made the same hat for other shows and movies too."
  6. Christine fans... I bring y'all some sad news about a filming location. The bridge over pass, under which where she chased and killed Moochie Welch, from the "You ain't mad are ya?" scene is no longer there. Torn down. A development has been done on the location.
  7. (Season 5 Lawman of the Year) Coy & Vance Duke are in the Post Office looking at Miss Tisdale's wanted posters. Rosco is outside on the street. Coy spots him. Coy(To Vance):"Duck, it's Rosco!" Miss Tisdale:"Lan sakes, if you boys wasn't kin to Jesse Duke, I'd be mighty suspicious about the way you two are actin'. Now, if you wanna hide out in here, yer gonna have to take a number."
  8. (Season 4 Hughie Hogg Strikes Again) Miss Tisdale(To Bo & Luke about Uncle Jesse.)"That Jesse Duke just sets my motor at fast idle."
  9. Sources that say Navy Blue Wool are incorrect. Alan Hale Jr.'s Yacht Captain Skipper Hats/Caps were always Black. Black Wool.
  10. (Season 4 Hughie Hogg Strikes Again) Luke:"There they go!" Bo:"Come on General." Luke:"Hey Bo! Pull over to that old Oak tree over there. I got an idea about how to get 'em outta that motorhome!" Bo:"Hahaha alright!" Luke slides out the window, sits on the door. Luke:"Slow down Bo. Easy!"(He has taken his shirt off to grab the beehive with.) Continued. "I got it!"(Gets back in General Lee with beehive.)
  11. (Season 2 The Friendly Physician) Dr. Boris Balinkoff:"Ah! So you're still on the island. How fortunate!" Skipper:"For who?!"
  12. (Season 1 Daisy's Song) Bo & Luke have returned to Lester Starr Music Publishing to try and get Daisy her money. They burst into Starr's office. Lester:"Hey! What are you guys doin'- Where's Jo Jo?" Luke:"Now look Mr. Starr, all we want is Daisy's royalty money." Bo:"Or her $50 back! Now, is that to much to ask for?" Lester Starr:"You guys are nuts!" Just then, Jo Jo bursts into the office. Jo Jo:"Mr. Starr-" Luke elbows him hard. Jo Jo:"Oooooh!" He falls to his knees, holding his stomach in pain. "Cops!" Lester Starr:"Cops?!" Jo Jo:"Outside! It's a raid!" Lester Starr:"A raid?!" Luke:"God! An' us on probation." Bo:"What are we gonna do?!" Luke:"Uh run!" Bo:"Yeah!" Lester Starr:"Hold 'em Jo Jo!" Cops burst into the recording studio. Luke:"Come on, this way!" Bo & Luke run out of the office into the hall to try and continue leaving. More cops show up.
  13. Roger... Teehee. That's what Miss Tisdale said Uncle Jesse does to her. Season 4 Hughie Hogg Strikes Again.
  14. Something that bugs me from book to movie transition in Christine, Buddy Repperton worked for Will Darnell and that's how he knew Christine was there. And in the book, it's Sandy Galton who tells about the airport parking lot. But in the movie, it's Moochie Welch who knows where it's kept at. Without explanation in the movie how he(Moochie)knows this. My guess is like Buddy Repperton, Moochie Welch also worked for Will Darnell at the garage and he kicked Moochie Welch out of the garage like he did to Buddy Repperton. It's the only thing that makes sense to me how Moochie Welch knew where it was kept.
  15. (Bride of Chucky) Jane(Holding gun on Chucky who is in his grave with his corpse. Jesse pulled the ladder out, trapping Chucky in the grave, after Chucky retrieved the Heart of Demballa soul transferring amulet from the neck of his corpse, in hopes of becoming Jesse, and Tiffany becoming Jane. Jane(Holding gun on Chucky.):"Don't move!" Chucky "Go ahead and shoot! I'll be back! I always come back! Ehhh. But dying is such a b***h."
  16. There's a Gilligan's Island connection in the movie Stand By Me. The junkyard/dog owner Milo Pressman of the dog called Chopper wears a White Skipper's hat.
  17. My Grandma Betty and Grandpa William my dad's parents one neighbor's house has tore down now. The Barry's died some time ago. Now their house is gone just like my Grandpa William and Grandma Betty's house. Grandpa died 1997. Grandma died 2002. Grandma and Grandpa's house was 4142 McGuffey RD. Lowellville Ohio. Grandma and Grandpa's was torn down about 2015ish. My Uncle Don and Aunt Alice had to move because the furnace broke on them. They continued living in that house after the deaths of Grandpa and Grandpa until the furnace went out. So R. I. P. Barry's and Barry house, and Grandpa and Grandma Broadhurst and their house.
  18. (Season 4 Nothin' But the Truth) During the car chase, after the Dukes load up Uncle Jesse's truck, and then spread out to make their getaway. Waylon Jennings:"Yes sir, the Dukes had been snookered smooth as a country pool hustler with their rent due. An' Jesse an' Daisy carryin' a full load, were like 2 sittin' hens, waitin' fer the hungry fox."
  19. Another new one on my celebrity crush list. A model Jessica Weaver.
  20. (Season 4 Miss Tisdale on the Lam) Miss Tisdale is driving her loaner motorcycle from Cooter, and Uncle Jesse is riding with her in the sidecar. They are being chased by Rosco and Cletus. Miss Tisdale:"Yeehaw! Eat dust you turkeys!"
  21. (Season 1 Daisy's Song) Boss Hogg's driver parked in an alley way behind Lester Starr Recording Studio. He is asleep at the wheel of the Cadillac. Boss Hogg comes running out, and raps on the window of the car. Boss Hogg:"Wake up you bingo! It's a raid!"
