Episode(s)

 * Rescue from Gilligan's Island

Trivia

 * Herbert's name in Rescue From Gilligan's Island contradicts his given name, Horace Higgenbotham, in The Postman Cometh. This is also complicated by the fact that Horace got married while she was on the island, the fact that Mary Ann calls Horace "a creep" and that she feels sorry for whoever he married and her confession that she has no one waiting for her at home. Even if Horace and Herbert were brothers and separate characters, this would not be enough to explain this major contradiction.
