Where To Watch
Are these Gilligan's Island visitors or early U.S. presidents?
Do you know names like Waterford, Wiley, Fillmore and Farrell from history books or Sixties TV?

How well do you know the many kooky visitors who happened to wash up on Gilligan’s Island? Well enough to be on a first name basis?
We’ve gathered characters seen on the classic castaway series and mixed them with a few presidential names you might remember from history class. You won’t find any Lincolns, Madisons, Jeffersons or Washingtons, though. Not even an Adams or Taft.
Only history buffs and classic TV experts can ace this quiz. Good luck!

15 out of 15. if i didn't know a president's name it was a gilligans island character.
I got all of them correct!!!!!!!
"You got 15 out of 15. Whether you knew all the answers or need a quick history refresher,
we solute the effort!"
MeTV Guys,
Not to be pedantic - everyone makes mistakes - but "solute"?

That is the fastest 15/15 I've ever clicked through. All it took was a basic knowledge of US history.
15/15, I just knew the presidents.
15/15 love my Gillian’s Island…
Chester Arthur ! 21st president I missed this one. Oh well back to US History.
You got 15 out of 15 - Whether you knew all the answers or need a quick history refresher, we solute the effort! Dear MeTV, please tell me this was done as a joke. I would certainly hope that the average MeTV watcher is old enough to recognize a U. S. President's name. Sadly, someone under 30 may not know them (do they still teach history?) but I don't think they are watching MeTV.
15/15 this was easy!
Franklin Pierce, isn't he also a MASH character? I got this one right on the quiz, but it could throw some people off.
That was Hawkeye's name
15/15 Only the 2nd time I ever got 100% on a METV quiz. All you need to know is your American history for this one.
The fact that this quiz even exists is sad.
15/15 Too easy if you were educated before the year 2000!
15/15. That one was WAY too easy!
15/15
Knew them all, but only because I recognized the presidents’ names. There were only a few of the Gilligan names I remembered.
Did better on this one than the Star Trek quiz!
''You got 15 out of 15'' ----Whether you knew all the answers or need a quick history refresher, we salute the effort! MeTv misspelled salute, as solute, which is obviously wrong!
You got 13 out of 15
Missed two. I never heard of Chester Arthur or George Blakeley. Obviously lesser known presidents who didn't amount to much.
NO!, #13 is George Barkley.
