Episode - So sorry my island now - 1965 A Japanese solder arrives on the island, thinks it's still WWII, and holds the castaways prisoner on their own island.Guest CastVito Scotti as the Japanese SailorTrivia ---Vito Scotti later played the Japanese Sailorin Diogenes, Won't You Please Go Home?when the Castaways gave their various versions of how they dealt with the crazy sailor. Scotti later guest-starred again twice as mad scientist Dr. Boris Balinkoff, making a total of four guest star appearances, more than any other guest star!This episode is considered one of the more controversial Gilligan's Island episodes, sometimes being left out of syndication for its racial stereotyping of Japanese people, a predicament in many Sixties and Seventies Movies and TV Shows.This episode starts with the many long shots of the Minnow wrecked on the beach which shouldn't be if it had fallen apart in Goodbye Island.The Japanese didn't have any small one-man subs, and if they had, the Japanese Sailor would have run out of fuel a long time ago.When the Skipper talks to Gilligan about the one-man sub, there's a strange mist near the waterfall caused by a leak in one of the hoses piping the water.Traces of a stuntman and his scuba tank can be seen underwater with the submarine periscope.It's never explained how the Japanese Sailor builds two large cages big enough and fast enough to hold the castaways. | Classic tv memories
