Starring: Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Bob Denver, Natalie Schafer
The Hunter - S3-E18
Continuity mistake: When Mrs. Howell talks to Ramu, he holds the spear waist high, and beside Lovey. After her question, the spear is suddenly chest high, and aimed about the top of her chest.
Gilligan's Personal Magnetism - S3-E21
Continuity mistake: When Gilligan knocks the door off the hut it lands on the Skipper's neck with the life preserver on the top. In the next shot the preserver is on the bottom.
Revealing mistake: Near the end of the episode, all the castaways are passed out cold when Lord Beasley finally catches his butterfly. Right after saying the line "That's the trouble with you Americans - you simply don't know how to hold your tea" as he's exiting off camera, Mrs. Howell starts to open her eyes slightly, but then quickly shuts them again. Perhaps she thought the cameras stopped rolling.
Eunice Wentworth "Lovey" Howell: Anyone who says money can't buy happiness doesn't know where to shop.
Trivia: In the dream sequence, little Gilligan was played by Bob Denver's son Patrick.
Question: Why did the Howells, Ginger and Mary Ann have so many changes of clothes with them? It was only a three hour tour.
Answer: I've been binge watching it, and a couple of times trunks with costumes have washed ashore, and in one episode the professor figured out how to make thread for weaving cloth.

Answer: Bob Denver answered this when he was on a talk show hosted by Pat Sajak. He said they were going to write into an episode where the castaways found all these clothes, but it got too complicated, so he said, they decided, "who cares, it's only a TV show," and forgot about it. So the writers and actors even asked this, they just never bothered to address it.
