DirecTV Gilligan’s Island Ad (Proposed)

In this proposed ad for DirecTV based on the famous old TV sitcom Gilligan’s Island, we see Gilligan watching TV in his hut, with all the other castaways crowded around watching too, and he looks at the camera and says: “We used to really want to be rescued a while ago, but nowadays we’re happy to stay right where we are, because now we get DirecTV! The professor set up a makeshift satellite dish out of cocoanut shells, and now we get everything we were missing before that made us want to be rescued: all the best in television shows, movies and sports! So now we’re happy to stay on our island paradise forever.” (Of course, they still get the bill airdropped to them each month despite being marooned on an uncharted desert isle.)
