At its core, the Gilligan's Island model relies on the lagoon as its main source of conflict -- something floats in, the castaways have to deal with it. The lagoon remains constant, the things in it change. Most ship-based Star Treks are anti-Gilligans Island shows in so far as they are what's floating into someone else's lagoon. They remain constant, the lagoon changes.

If anything, I would say DS9 is the better Gilligan's Island analogue, with the wormhole acting as the lagoon.

In this sheriff's office, like several other law enforcement agencies, ranks jump from junior officers (lieutenant, captain) straight to flag rank (1 star for chief deputy, 2 stars for assistant sheriff, 3 stars for under sheriff, 4 stars for sheriff). Just seems like someone really wanted to dress up in a general's uniform.

Something really strange about American police forces is their use of military rank insignia. Here we have an elected official overseeing a civilian law enforcement agency of ~4000 personnel wearing the rank insignia of a 4-Star general.
