Bob Denver, who was fresh from cancelation of Dusty's Trail and Gilligan's Island, teams up with Chuck McCann, recently graduated from Seattle's Mime Academy.
Once again, Bob Denver is selling his "little buddy" act to another big fat "skipper." Chuck McCann recognizes that formula for success, he does the "little buddy" with Gilligan.
Soon enough, the two NASA caterers are stocking sandwiches in the Space Shuttle fridge, when Gilligan hits the launch button (instead of Lunch) on the space ship, and away they go!
Lots of uncomfortable laughs for the sad sack crew. The big slob with the bowl hair cut and demented grin was the Skipper on this show, and Gilligan got the bottom bunk again. No coconut oil on this trip! Just low budget comedy writing the hard way.
There were 15 episodes of this show filmed. But most of them were never broadcast. It was up to ingenious fans to get the bootleg complete season sets in order to see all the wonderful fun.
