Episode #06 President Gilligan

Dear Fellow Castaway,

This is the episode where Gilligan becomes president of the island and actually ends up doing a better job at running the place then the others. In this episode we also see the first use of the "looking at the audience through the camera" shot. Both Skipper and Ginger will turn to the camera and say something clearly just for the audience. Not sure if director Richard Donner used this again in future episodes that he worked on. Hope you enjoy the episode and see you on the next one. Aloha!
