The Castaways

The crew and passengers of the S.S. Minnow first sailed into our living rooms on Saturday, September 26, 1964. The first season ran for 36 episodes, and was the only one of the three seasons to be broadcast in Black & White.

The wonderful DVD set brings all these episodes to us with amazingly high quality image and sound, as if they were only first aired yesterday!

The Season One DVD set also includes several special features:

Rare Pilot Episode (not aired until 1992)
