When I was a little girl I wanted to go to fantasy island, I thought it was real, my childhood was sad because my parents had me when they were very old and had health issues and to me this show was a way to escape all the sadness.
The Fantasy Island house is at the Los Angeles County Arboretum in Arcadia, California… we go there at t least once a year. Beautiful botanical gardens. Lots of movies filmed there.
Aaron Spelling was to tv, what Colonel Harland Sanders was to fried chicken...From "Fantasy Island" to "Seventh Heaven", his contribution to the American tv industry is unparalleled...Now, as an adult, I can, thanks to UA-cam, watch, understand, appreciate and be entertained by this classic tv show, once more.
Yes, Aaron Spelling and Gary Marshall are my two favorite produces. Don't forget 90210 and Melrose Place, Charlie's Angle. UA-cam is great to watch what we did as kids, love it.
@@hopegrimsley3427 was DALLAS a part of that family as well? I recall the two shows with the big LOGOS at the beginning had these soaring epic themes > love these old classics ; good bit of nostalgia i need now .. Enjoy and be safe!
@@pvtrichter8816 hello! I don’t think so; I think Dynasty was created to be a rival to Dallas. I love them all though, including Falcon Crest and The Colbys. I love 80s Primetime Soap Operas :)
OMG I totally forgot about this show I mean I didn’t. I never forgot about Tattoo and him saying, “the plane the plane”we used to joke about that at school. This show is timeless. There’s nothing like it that original feel makes it feel so real to be able to hold our attention in these times says a lot and yes Ricardo Mantalban, wow have you looked at some of his old stuff he’s dancing absolutely amazing. He was a man’s man his luxe his subtleties And his brilliance as an actor
Well. Except none of these men slept with the mother, they were only standing in for their friend. Where Mamma Mia, the mother was actually a slut. But I guess maybe you didn't watch it.
Thanks so much for posting and sharing! But damn that Genie Francis she can even make me tear up watching Fantasy Island!! The best of the best she is.
Love´s power conquering doubt and fear, and making a way where there seemed to be none. Very nice episode, full of great lessons for life, as always with Mr. Roarke. Things are not what they seem, wonderful things may hide behind silence and appearances. And love is better than passing vanities of the world!
If they did, he'd have to chase them 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Anteran Maelstrom and 'round Perdition's flames before he gave them up ;)
If he tried, and wasn't on the ship, yet still in communication, Captain Kirk would give Commander Spock a direct order to relieve him on his personal authority as Captain of the Enterprise. He might not immediately comply, but Spock would threaten to put him in the brig. Then he would comply, as Vulcans never bluff.
Beautiful at least Colonel Flagg learned something from Hawke Eye and Trapper ps I would have loved if the town people would have been freed and turned back in to Human form like Leyla RIP John Carradine and Caroline Jones ps love the Make up and costumes this show was a head of it's time
Woman in an exotic locale trying to find out the identity of her natural father just before she gets married and there are 3 possible candidates? MAMA MIA! :)

HEY EVERYBODY fantsay island is coming back in business January 2-2019 IAM SO HAPPY EVERYBODY I can't wait to see it THANX ABC I LOVE YOU BROTHA..Cashmere
I think this was one of the best televisions shows they aired on television in the 80's. It will go up there with the classics like the Twilight Zone. Now it is 2024 and television has turned to crud. Why? No imagination, not much good acting.
Carolyn Jones looks very odd in a wig. Makes me wonder what different roles she might have played if she hadn't had the same black straight hair so identifiable in other parts. Even with it, Genie looks nothing like her daughter, guess her father must have been blonde. She's so beautiful it's enjoyable to see her in anything.
I think the creator(s) of Mamma Mia liked Fantasy Island, particularly this episode. Interesting that I never see this episode mentioned as inspiration for the story line of the musical. This episode came out in 1982, and Fantasy Island overlapped the ABBA era, so I can see how someone would want to pay homage to the era and those inspirations within.
John Carradine Was A Fine Character Actor But I Bet People Didn't know He was An Oscar winner For 1936Grape of Wrath He Played Casey The Ex preacher'.Who Lost His Faith and Later Regained it Again
Wow. John Carradine. Carolyn Jones. William Windom. Alan Hale. Hal Smith. Alvy Moore. Amazing all the big names and not so big names that flocked to these shows. Also amazing how this show was so popular, and like The Love Boat, is truly terrible when watched today.
No way, I still love the love boat. I cried when I found it when UA-cam first started. Hearing the Charlie's Angels music when the scenes change gave me chills. I smiled so hard watching the Brady Bunch do their variety show that my face hurt for the whole week. I love Hart to Hart, Carol Burnette, Bob Newhart, the Jeffersons. We had the best shows of all time. I would never say a word against them. From Miss Lori Lynn's memoirs. 🙃
Wow, she is like the "vicky" character on the Love Boat, the other Saturday Night kinda lame episode us kids were left to watch when the parents wetn out.
This is the 14th episode of the fifth season. Likely this was during Hervé Villechaize's, let's say less than professional behavior which is why he didn't appear here and later fired.
I'm trying to decide who was the coolest between Mr Rourke and Steve Mcgarret (from the original Hawaii 5.0). How I miss the 70's/80's. The scene on 44:08 when those demonic people started chanting wish and we will come. Reminds me of that black knight Pepsi commercial.
@@thatguyfromcetialphaV the episodes from Star Trek were "the doomsday machine" with William winding. "Space seed" with Ricardo montalban. My favorite Star Trek episode was "the way to Eden" about the space hippies. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Watching these again, I wonder if Carol Lynley and Carolyn Jones were related. The resemblance is uncanny. Lynley s parents were named Jones. At one point I thought they might be mother and daughter but that would mean Carolyn Jones had a pregnancy at 12.
I just love these shows so much...Ricardo Montalban is a brilliant actor...genius!
And he's handsome, as well !
He was smoking hot, especially in his younger years dancing with Cyd Charisse. And he had a manly hairy body. Just sexy as hell. @@brooksequine7621

MARK R yes I am better realized everyday wasn't as bad but not as fun as some people. Thank you for asking
Awe. God bless! Thanks for sharing.
lydia green Your story touched me deeply. Sending you peace and blessings!
Awe Genie Francis. I used to love her back in the day, on General Hospital with Luke. Luke and Laura. Excellent episode thank you very much.
She's still there, only now she's the Mayor and married to Kevin Collins.

The 4 words that will melt a man's heart " I love you daddy"
I always liked Mr. Roark, felt he was there to teach people things.
OMG I totally forgot about this show I mean I didn’t. I never forgot about Tattoo and him saying, “the plane the plane”we used to joke about that at school. This show is timeless.

Love seeing Carolyn Jones (aka Morticia Adams) in this!!
Never even knew Genie did an episode of this show.
Me neither. I saw this a few times and failed to recognize the beauty girl.
this UA-cam is amazing,being able to bring up shows from my childhood,think I go watch Taxi now.
God, how I loved Carolyn Jones!
She was great as morticia on the Addams family. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Man I loved this show.
CATHY ANN: This was one of my favorite shows....they just don't make them like they used to.....
The storyline with Genie is a lot like "Mamma Mia."
Yes very similar.
This episode inspired Mamma Mia no doubt!
Well. Except none of these men slept with the mother, they were only standing in for their friend. Where Mamma Mia, the mother was actually a slut. But I guess maybe you didn't watch it.
Love the baby blue tuxes!! My brother got married in a baby blue tux!
Fantasy Island is the best show ever
Genie is so beautiful. She still is. I loved her on General Hospital in all her adventures. She and Jonathan Frakes seem to make a great couple
I do not care for Frakes at all (or his ST show--boring) but Miss. Francis is so beautiful and great indeed!
Brilliant programme. Never knew there was a girl with my name in the series. I was obviously meant to watch it LOL
When Roarke said success to that one guy it had an ominous feeling to it.
from one island to another,the skipper
I have an autographed picture of Ricardo Montabon
Thanks so much for posting and sharing! But damn that Genie Francis she can even make me tear up watching Fantasy Island!! The best of the best she is.
@LoveEverton John cute
back in my younger days she was my dream girl absolutely gorgeous.
I miss being a kid and watching Love Boat and FI
Definitely a contender for Mystery Science Theater
Thanks much for posting this great memory...
This was one of my fav shows growing up
oh, how i have forgotten about this show... brings back memories.
Love´s power conquering doubt and fear, and making a way where there seemed to be none. Very nice episode, full of great lessons for life, as always with Mr. Roarke. Things are not what
they seem, wonderful things may hide behind silence and appearances.
And love is better than passing vanities of the world!
Had a weird little girl crush on Mr Roark. I think i have it still. His ghost still such a dream.
Mamma Mia (written after this) was loosely based on a movie from the late 60's. Presumably, that movie was the inspiration for this storyline.
Oscar winner John Carridine good Actor
Anyone else believe that Mamma Mia! Was based in this episode?
I wonder if any of Mr. Roark's customers ever had a fantasy about being captain of the Enterprise :)
If they did, he'd have to chase them 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Anteran Maelstrom and 'round Perdition's flames before he gave them up ;)
daffers234 The fantasy will end with their best friends being dead from radiation poisoning....until the next fantasy :)
If he tried, and wasn't on the ship, yet still in communication, Captain Kirk would give Commander Spock a direct order to relieve him on his personal authority as Captain of the Enterprise. He might not immediately comply, but Spock would threaten to put him in the brig. Then he would comply, as Vulcans never bluff.
MisterTutor2010 ha ha ha
ABC did try with Malcom Mcdowell as Mr. Rourke. It didn't last too long. I think it was a lot darker.
I love that show
Priscilla Jones , right after the LOVE BOAT
9:00 The Love Boat, 10:00 Fantasy Island. Every Saturday night.
The Maxwell House guy was great in this show and in the Naked Gun.
I always loved this show and I also thought it was filmed in Hawaii!
I Love Fantasy Island 👍💯❤️
Being Ricardo Montlalban must be epic!!!!!!!
+AustralianLeprechaun Tattoo will never be copied either.
AustralianLeprechaun He was a fine representation of latino actors
back in the day. when tv was tv.
Lydia green I thought Fantasy Island was real also because I always had a very vivid imagination I love using my imagination
Beautiful at least Colonel Flagg learned something from Hawke Eye and Trapper ps I would have loved if the town people would have been freed and turned back in to Human form like Leyla RIP John Carradine and Caroline Jones ps love the Make up and costumes this show was a head of it's time
If you read between the lines it is possible that one of those three guys is still the pretty young lady's dad out of wedlock!
You can call Wendy Schall an actress worked with at least three mega producers.
Woman in an exotic locale trying to find out the identity of her natural father just before she gets married and there are 3 possible candidates? MAMA MIA! :)
Right down to her being a chipper blond 20-year old.
@@jeremyud The chipper blonde schtick went hand in hand with her being dumb as a rock.
Wedding one lovely other scary
Great upload Thanks Some interesting moments
great show.
The teacher was in Porky's 2.
41:24 The skipper two step. Alan Hale Jr. looked awesome in this role.
THEY NEED TO MAKE A NEW VERSION OF THIS!!!!
+Javi Mack Jr -They did back in 98 and it failed.
nobody can remake this. and have it be as good
if they did they should use the Dos Equis Beer Commercial man as MR. Roarke..lol
Joee they need to leave it alone
ruffian#7275 I like the Remake but it looks like no one else did. didn't even last a season.
RIP OSCAR Winner Chacther Actor John Carradine
John is the father of actor David carradines.
@@harperstacey9604 yes I know also Keith carradine

Colonel Flagg
I like it
I hit another even likes number.
The y need to pull out them DNA tests for Daddy's little girl. Her issue was very fixable indeed😌
Not in 1982 it wasn't. No DNA testing back then.
So basically 'Daddy's little girl' is the movie/play Mamma Mia
Mamma Mia was written after this. But they're both loosely based on a movie from the late 60's.
Julie should be wearing a white formal dress and high heeled shoes instead of a white suit.
The captain from Gilligan's Island is in this episode.
It's Alan Hale aka "the Skipper". 🏝
KHANNNNN!!!!
So basically Mr.Rourke was like, ok this guy's fantasy is so frickin boring I better spice it up.
Colonel Flagg! What are you doing on Fsntasy Island?
I think this was one of the best televisions shows they aired on television in the 80's. It will go up there with the classics like the Twilight Zone. Now it is 2024 and television has turned to crud. Why? No imagination, not much good acting.
Genie Francis was in one of the best 🧼 opera couples. Who played the other half of the couple?
Anthony geary played the other half of the Luke and Laura saga. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Daddy is your real father.
odd, it says "executive producers : Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg" but in Aaron Spelling's imdb and wiki page, this show is not listed.
@Luciana ha ha 😂 the cool version of the effect.
KHAAAAAAAAAAAN!
Where's Daddy's Little Girl?
Al Bundy, do you have the episodes with Rue McClanahan? Could you please post them? Thank you
You never see all of three of them right?
The drunk from Andy Griffith, Otis. Who slept in the jail cell when he was drunk, a lot. :-}
👍🏽
laura from GH!
Wendy Schaal so beautiful
😂😂😂it seem this young lady leela in this epidode needed muary to find her dad
Carolyn Jones looks very odd in a wig. Makes me wonder what different roles she might have played if she hadn't had the same black straight hair so identifiable in other parts. Even with it, Genie looks nothing like her daughter, guess her father must have been blonde.
She's so beautiful it's enjoyable to see her in anything.
Mr Kimbal from Green Acres, Otis from the Andy Griffith Show, and John Carradine. Extra Carolyn Jones the first Mrs. Aaron Spelling.
That nurse at the start can do some CPR on me. Mister Roarke, thank you for hiring her.
Da plane!
Daddy’s Little Girl storyline is eerily similar to the play “Mamma Mia” but without the ABBA music. 3 Fathers?...
I kinda think this was before Mama Mia!
I think the creator(s) of Mamma Mia liked Fantasy Island, particularly this episode. Interesting that I never see this episode mentioned as inspiration for the story line of the musical. This episode came out in 1982, and Fantasy Island overlapped the ABBA era, so I can see how someone would want to pay homage to the era and those inspirations within.
I did a little research. Mamma Mia is loosely based on a movie from the late 60's. This story likely was inspired by the same movie.
😍😍😍😍👍👍
Boss, the plaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaane!!!
Does no one have full episodes of Fantasy Island???
Full episodes get blocked.
Good TV video but why so "Washed Out" looking? Is this from a VHS? Peace

It always confused me that Mr. Roarke's "niece" calls him "Mister" instead of "Uncle".
2:15 Isn’t she played Morticia Addams in the Addams Family TV series?
Dang I was hoping William Windom would have a scene with Ricardo.
William winding and Ricardo montalban appeared on episodes of Star Trek, the original series. From Ms. Harper Stacey.

The resemblance is that both ladies were like English and Native American mixed. I think Carolyn was Cherokee while Carol was Iroquois.
