Nothing beats Gilligan’s Isle’s opening credits.

Mary Ann & Ginger potentially semi-clad.

Opening & Closing themes from Season 2 (1965)

Fun facts: all the actors playing German officers were Jewish.

Werner Klemperer came to the US as a teenager and graduated from Hollywood High. He had a flawless American accent IRL.

John "Sgt Schultz" Banner served in the US Army in WWII.

Robert Clary was an actual Holocaust survivor.
