Seeing this show was very nostalgic for me. I was a kid during that era, and I used to watch the Banana Splits every week when it was on - same time frame as the Monkees. Was there ever a better time for TV? Not only is the show clever in its ruses and gags, but there is an action sequence for almost any taste in the silly, yet amusing, Danger Island.
I did notice an actor in Danger Island that I used to see during the later 1960's and throughout the 1970's. His name is Jimmy Bradfield. He had a very small part in this show, as one of the "natives" that befriends Michael Vincent. He was in the Heat of the Night movie with Sidney Poitier as a youngster. He was a guest (not a guest-star) on the Brady Bunch. I know he was in the Babysitter horror movies, and he played on a few other '70s shows before working with the obligatory rock band. Alas, he seems to have disappeared, probably because no one is making the fairly mindless, yest still humorous shows like they used to. Too bad, I mourn for the simpler days.
