Revealing mistake: When the shark takes a second bite of the raft, you can see the bite before it's taken.
Revealing mistake: When the shark is attacking Gilligan's oar the second time, it stops completely for a couple of seconds.
Revealing mistake: As the shark goes by the floating bottle and towards the camera, the underwater rail the prop shark rides on is obvious.
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.
Don't Bug the Mosquitoes - S2-E12
Trivia: The Wellingtons, who sang the Gilligan's Island theme song, appeared in this episode as Gilligan's favorite group The Mosquitoes.
Question: In this episode, as the Professor is put into a trance, in the background, there seems to be a radio or television transmission tower that can be seen over the roof of the hut. It's blurry, but doesn't seem to be a standard palm tree. Is this a mistake, or set error, or my imagination?
