Two different episodes: The cosmonauts were the ones who landed on the island; the island was overflown by a Gemini mission.

My headcanon of the island is that one side of the island is taken up by a volcanic peak with steep cliffs at the ocean and numerous caves. The castaways side is mostly flat and includes the “lagoon”.

ETA: of course, reconciling any of this with the on-location footage featured in the B&W first season is probably impossible.

okay, 40 years since I’ve seen it, but thanks and thank you also** Miller** for getting me that image.

“Scorpio,” I think it was. “Scorpio 10.”

I loved that show as a kid watching it daily after school in syndication. Years & years later I saw the cosmonauts one and loved a joke that went way over my head before: When Mr. Howell first meets the Russians and they refer to him as a ‘capitalist pig’ or something and Jim Backus just laughs it off with that William F. Buckley accent of his!!

One of the great moments in the history of the series:

“Capitalist! Exploiter! PTUI!”

“Ho-ho, I was wrong, Lovey! They’re very friendly!”

Also:

“If they get rescued, they tell whole world that we make mistake. I got question: How mad is Moscow?”

“I got answer: How cold is Siberia?”
