Why I could never suspend my disbelief while watching Gilligan’s Island

Come on-

Let’s face it,

if the professor was as

smart as he was

and make almost anything

out of two coconuts

while Mary Ann could

bake the best darned

coconut cream pies that side

of the equator;

why were the two of them

referred to as “and the rest”

in the opening song

that first season?

That has always boggled my mind.
