CONTEST WINNER: Just Sit Right Back
Wow...I don't think I've ever received this many responses to a post before. How fun! Thank you all for your replies. There was only one person who got all the answers correct and that person did not want to appear in the comic. You know who you are (and you if you want credit by name, let me know)! Congratulations on being smarter than EVERYONE else!
So the rest of you want to know what the correct answer is? If you ask Jim Colegrove, who wins the award for the most creative answer (and may have to appear in a cartoon on the basis of that alone), he would have you believe that William Shatner was The Skipper, Leonard Nimoy was The Professor and DeForest Kelley was grumpy old Thurston Howell. If you ask my cousin Justin; he'd tell you that he has no f*cking idea. Leave it to someone in my family to drop an "F-Bomb" (as apparently I have been a lot lately as well). Thanks for trying cousin, but that's not really an answer and you lose.
Helen and Heide...you both missed Gilligan, but got all the rest right. Gilligan is a hard one because his real name was never mentioned on the show. The only time it's ever been revealed was during an interview with creator Sherwood Shwartz (and Bob Denver) who revealed that the Skipper's little buddy was named Willy Gilligan. The skipper, Jonas Grumby. The Professor, Roy Hinkley. The Howell's, Thurston and Lovey (officially it's never been revealed as "Eunice Wentworth" Lovey Howell but I accepted that). Ginger Grant, they revealed this name every other episode. And finally, Kansas girl Mary Ann Summers.
The only way to break the tie is the age old coin flip. Let me go get one. And the winner and person that will appear in an upcoming update is... HELEN by a "tails". Congratulations!

I'm devastated... my chance at immortality has been tossed away by the fickle fate of a coin. But I'm happy for Helen... really. No, I would never think of creating a voodoo doll of Helen and stabbing it's eyes out with my knitting needles. The thought never even crossed my mind.
Heide, are you kidding me here???? Cause my eyes have been incredibly itchy for the past two days!!!!!!!!!!!!Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........ ;o)))))))
I WON!!!!!!!

"Wow, what a surprise!!!! First of all, I would like to thank my parents...."
