- Island of Misfit Toys (the island sanctuary where defective and unwanted toys are sent from the Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer cartoon).
- Gilligan's Island (a group of castaways on an uncharted, uninhabited island, complete with a dimwitted, accident-prone crewman and a condescending character reminiscent of Mr. Magoo).
- Fantasy Island (a seemingly island paradise riddled with oddities and bizarreness just beneath the surface).
- Survivor Anywhere (isolated in a remote wilderness location with strangers and given a minimal number of tools with which to survive; laden with challenges to test endurance, problem solving, teamwork, dexterity and willpower).
- Lord of the Flies (a group stuck on a deserted island who try to govern themselves with disastrous results).
- Vanuatu (a South Pacific island facing tremendous pressure on local ecosystems where freshwater and waste disposal are increasingly troublesome issues).
- A mysterious tropical island in the South Pacific, home of Lost (where a group of strangers are forced to work together to stay alive with survival threatened by mysterious entities).
- Borneo (an island that has no escape from the suffocating heat and humidity).
- Más a Tierra (the island where Robinson Crusoe lived, complete with captives, mutineers and more).
- Deliverance (oh wait, that's not an island but the plot still applies: expecting to have fun and see the glory of nature but instead, face both nature and mankind conspiring to send you through a crucible of danger and degradation).

Robin and I laugh every day and know how lucky we are....
