But of course it reminded me of this episode of Gilligan's Island:

A telephone cable is washed up onto the island during a storm and the castaways try to use it to call for a rescue:

There were only a few seasons of Gilligan's Island so as a kid I saw them all multiple times after they were syndicated. As a result they are all burned into my memory - yes, I should have been studying instead.
