The famous parrot episode, still outrageous after all these years.
A very simple story, but classic, written by George O'Hanlon, long time comedy writer and actor, best known as the voice of George Jetson. Somehow, someway a talking parrot lands on the island and drives the castaways nuts. The parrot is called Sam, but the gimmick here is the gang has no idea its a bird. When they hear him talking (and doing various voices) they think its some dangerous criminals on the loose and they're all doomed. Hilariously, Sam only responds when he hears the words, "boat" and "jewel"???
Best gag; the voice of the parrot is noneother than Mel Blanc, famous cartoon voice actor, who obviously is having a blast!
A large of dose of poetic license here. The gang versus a parrot is absolutely insane, but super entertainment for fans.
Well directed by Tom Montgomery, famous for the cult film, KING KONG VS. GODZILLA. By the way, O'Hanlon may have used the title as a take-off on the popular Jack Lemmon movie, GOOD NEIGHBOR SAM.
Not to be missed. SEASON 1 EPISODE 27 remastered color. Check out the dvd box with the cool cover.
