Starring: Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Bob Denver, Natalie Schafer
Other mistake: When the headhunter is about to chop a tree Gilligan is behind, he yells. The actor has metal fillings in his teeth. Headhunters would not likely have a dentist.
Other mistake: As the Skipper is on the ground under the tree waiting for Ginger to get Gilligan, the headhunter is crawling behind him. You can see some smoke in the lower left corner, likely cigarette smoke from a crew member.
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.
Skipper Jonas Grumby: Ginger, I've got a problem... I've got a real problem... Now you're a girl, right?
Ginger Grant: Well, if you're not sure about that, you have got a problem.
Trivia: In the dream sequence, little Gilligan was played by Bob Denver's son Patrick.
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?

Chosen answer: It looks like a mistake to me I see it when the Professor is put into a trance, but it is not there later.
