Only Maryann and Ginger are left, now. I loved that goofy show when I was a kid.

Russell was a WWII vet. The Professor was the original MacGuyver!

Same day, we also lost Dave Madden, aka Reuben Kincaid

Sad day for that genre of t.v.

Thanks, guys.

Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen

I'm just a red pill guy in a room full of blue pill addicts.

Mr Kincaid died too?! That really sucks! Meanwhile Don Imus is alive and well, not fair.

Never like hearing of the passing of the folks you grew up with while watching t.v. Losing 2 like that, on the same day... makes it a harder to take.

Russell Johnson was a sci-fi icon. Some of his movies include It Came From Outer Space, This Island Earth, Space Children, and Attack Of The Crab Monsters. He appeared in a couple of classic Twilight Zone episodes and an episode of The Outer Limits.

"It used to make me upset to be typecast that way. But as the years have gone on, I have given in. I am the Professor, and that's the way it is. The show has brought a lot of joy to people, and that's not a bad legacy" ... Russell Johnson, referring to his role on Gilligan's Island
