@@matthewhutchinson9353 Back in the 1960's there were laws in exotic, remote Switzerland (a major world banking center) that ensured anonymity for anyone with a disguised account name, so all the world dictators would have accounts under fake names so that when they were overthrown in a revolution they could escape and retire in luxury somewhere.
Since he had his redemption arc, and he will ultimately be denied from entering his and other countries, it would’ve been cool to see him come back to the island at the end and become a permanent castaway.
I still love "Gilligan's Island" even with all the fake stuff in it. This is the second episode where someone is getting ready to shoot Gilligan with the skipper standing right behind the shooter. Why don't the skipper just grab the guy and subdue him BEFORE he shoots Gilligan?
The Little Dictator played by Nehemiah Persoff is still alive and I believe in his late 90's. he had a lot of great roles in movies and tv appearances.
Mr. Persoff was born in Isreal and moved to America with his family when he was only ten years old. He had a talent for dialect which led to a lot of acting jobs. I would say he spoke very good English based on his educational background.
Looks like Gilligan got lucky and won this duel. This show had some pretty good guest stars like Don Rickles and Zsa Zsa Gabor. Rickles is still alive but we recently lost Gabor.
Yes, Gilligan's island is a true story. Ginger is based on the real life 1930's movie goddess Jean Harlow from before she was famous (during the 1920's), when she was stuck on a remote island with a billionaire and his wife, and a professor, etc. in the days before modern communications technology.
I like Mr. Howell's line: "Poor guy! I hope he has money in Switzerland!"
I’ve never understood that joke can you explain it to me

Nehemiah Persoff is still around as of this writing and is a great actor. I went to high school with his younger 2 children.
Professor: "You can't shoot him in cold blood!"
Rodriguez: "I have very warm blood, ask the lady."
😲😂😂😂😂😂
Happy 100th Birthday to Nehemiah Persoff today, August 2nd 2019!
Love El Presidente's comment to Mrs. Howell "You mean become one of the masses?"
Nehemiah Persoff played this role perfectly. His accent was hilarious!
This was a favorite episode of mine, especially the dream scene.
🎶G-I-double-L-I G-A-N spells Gilligan! 🎶

This kind of gave me the creeps he was actually going to try to shoot Gilligan.

"Some say, 'He's gotten a little TOO BIG FOR HIS SPATS!' but I say he's a man that'll go far."
Little Bonaparte. What a great character!
RIP: Nehemiah Persoff

Was he a legit mexican who didn't speak much English?

lol! You sound like you're in junior high kenterminatetedbygoogle!
Now he's over 100.
Lots of funny lines in this episode. Probably my favorite.
"Are you going to believe your eyes, or me?" :)
It was creator Sherwood Schwartz's favorite episode too!
Poor Gilligan, he always gets picked on.

RIP Nehemiah Persoff.
A showdown with Gilligan?! Then he won't win because Gilligan's nothing but bad luck!! LOL
More truth here than any news program
In our Hearts forever God Bless 🌈
Oh si. si si si si si! lol! Mary Ann wearing high heels!
They could have easily overpowered him and taken the gun instead of letting him try to shoot Gilligan.
Yeah I thought the Skipper was his best friend? You're twice his size, right next to him, even touching him. But the thought never occurred to him 👎
@@ckobo84 The other castaway's self-preservation instincts were simply too powerful to outweigh their desire to save Gilligan.
😂 🤣 Loved and still love this show
So Nehemiah Persoff is the Gilligan’s Island actor Google keeps click bating, “still alive at almost 103.” Great actor!
Mr.howell looks like bob mueller...lol
Now this is the FOOL of all island fools here!!!! LOL
He might have used a silencer. LOL!
Love how he thought Gilligan was Washington 😀
Gilligan looked like a mix historical of Alexander the great and napoleon
2022 Rules forever 👍.

I don't remember this episode. Thats weird
Is Gilligan's Island a true story?
Good question.
No. It is a fictional tale...ua-cam.com/video/S3HFXSgWps8/v-deo.html
Yes it was real and it was spectacular.

This reminds me of Joesph Biden Jr aka the president of the United States of America
…and Wolodymyr Zelenskyy!
