1964 The Professor Gilligans Island Pilot Episode: "Marooned". John Gabriel portrayed a high school teacher; the part was re-cast for the series

John Gabriel was originally cast as the Professor, but the network thought he looked too young to have all the degrees attributed to the character

The pilot episode featured a different character ("Bunny") played by actress Nancy McCarthy. After it was shot, the network decided to recast the roles of the Professor and the two young women. Mary Ann became a simple farm girl from Winfield, Kansas.

Nancy McCarthy (born June 8, 1937 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) is an American actress perhaps best known for her role as "Bunny" in the original 1963 pilot (unaired until 1992) for Gilligan's Island.
