The episode is "Waiting for Watubi" and that definately is the statue. Do you happen to know if that is THE statue used in the show? It certainly looks like it. It is also true that Gilligan's Island was suprisingly low on the true tiki factor. Just a side note: There is an episode where an island witch doctor controls everyone by making little dolls of them. In one scene the Professor is looking at the acient artifacts in a cave and proclaims they are "examples of early Maya workmanship." That has always struck me as hilarious since the Maya didn't inhabit Polynesian islands.
