The gang finally got off the damn island (sort of) when the first TV movie from a TV series, Rescue from Gilligan’s Island, premiered on CBS-TV with all of the original cast except Tina Louise (who wanted too much money,) on this date.
The Rescue from Gilligans Island TV movie was one of the most viewed shows of all time. The made for TV movie scored 52% (30.2) in the Nielson ratings which remains one of the highest ratings of all time for a TV movie.
