GILLIGAN'S ISLAND: THE LITTLE DICTATOR (TV)
Summary
One in this series about seven castaways stranded on a desert island, and their unsuccessful attempts at escape. In this episode, the "ex-presidente," Pancho Hernando Gonzalez Enrico Rodriguez, of a small Latin nation is thrown overboard and ends up on the island. Not used to democracy, Rodriguez uses his gun to become the dictator of the island, trying to start his own new country in the process. As the island's inhabitants try to thwart Rodriguez's plans, Gilligan falls asleep and dreams of a life in which he is the ruler of a country. Commercials deleted.
