R.I.P. Russell Johnson (The Professor)

[Solid Lifters]

RIP Russell Johsnon "The Professor" from Gilligan's Island. http://www.russell-johnson.com/

Loved this show so much growing up. He was the last male character from the show and now he's gone too.

No doubt I'll watch a few Gilligan's Island shows tonight in tribute.

RIP Professor.

Seriously? No love for The Professor?

He was an American hero, too. Shot down in his B-24 during WWII on a bombing run over the South Pacific.

I heard about this earlier today, was really sad to hear it. I watched those episodes so many times, and I still chuckle.

RIP

Wow, the Professor was hero too like Mr. Rogers and Captain Kangaroo. That is awesome. RIP Professor, may you be up on the Island in Heaven.

I liked the professor.
He could build a nuclear reactor from a couple of coconuts.

Probably my favorite character (after Mary Ann of course).

I always wondered how he could make a radio out of a coconut but couldn't patch a hole in a boat.

Anyhoo, RIP Professor.
