Nonono, the moniker "Kona the god of Evil" was made up by Sherwood Schwartz ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherwood_Schwartz ), writer/producer of Gilligan's Island AND the Brady Bunch. I mixed up the two Sherwood Schwartz Tikis above, calling him bad luck Tiki, which should be reserved for the Brady Bunch one.

In "Waiting for Watubi", Kona is found by Gilligan and deemed as carrying an evil curse by the Skipper, who is befallen by a series of mishaps, and tries to rid himself of the Tiki, but it always pops up again and makes him freak out. One of only TWO Tiki-containing episodes of the Gilligan series, it is required viewing for the Tikiphile!
