Gilligan's Island - Season 3 opening

  • 17 years ago
Season 3 (1966-67) opening titles for Gilligan's Island complete with Top Job sponsor billboard. From the episode "And Then There Were None" (prod. #1625-0517), first airing on CBS December 5, 1966.

If you listen carefully to the Season-3 mix of the theme, the music notes played on the flute are different and the song seems to be sung a little deeper and bolder. Not only that, the storm winds were much louder! All this is due to added echo effects.

Sadly, The Complete Third Season DVD set (which I got from Barnes & Noble in Metarie last year) doesn't feature the Season 3 version of the theme. Instead, the Season-2 arrangement of The Ballad was substituted.
