- Gilligan's Island is an American sitcom created and produced by Sherwood Schwartz. The show had an ensemble cast that featured Bob Denver, Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Natalie Schafer, Russell Johnson, Tina Louise, and Dawn Wells. It aired for three seasons on the CBS network from September 26, 1964, to April 17, 1967. The series followed the comic adventures of seven castaways as they attempted to survive on an island on which they had been shipwrecked. Most episodes revolve around the dissimilar castaways' conflicts and their unsuccessful attempts, for whose failure Gilligan was frequently responsible, to escape their plight.[1]
Gilligan's Island ran for 98 episodes. All thirty-six episodes of the first season were filmed in black and white and were later colorized for syndication. The show's second and third seasons (62 episodes) and the three television movie sequels (aired between 1978 and 1982) were filmed in color.
The show received solid ratings during its original run, then grew in popularity during decades of syndication, especially in the 1970s and 1980s when many markets ran the show in the late afternoon. Today, the title character of Gilligan is widely recognized as an American cultural icon.
Premise
The two-man crew of the charter boat SS Minnow and five passengers on a "three-hour tour" from Honolulu run into a typhoon and are shipwrecked on an uncharted island somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. Their efforts to be rescued are typically thwarted by the inadvertent conduct of the hapless first mate, Gilligan.
Typical plots
The shipwrecked castaways desperately want to leave the remote island, and various opportunities frequently present themselves, but always fail, usually due to some bumbling error committed by Gilligan. Sometimes this would result in Gilligan saving the others from some unforeseen flaw in their plan.[3]
Most episodes of Gilligan's Island used variations on five recurring basic plots:
Life on the island. A running gag is the castaways' ability to fashion a vast array of useful objects from bamboo, gourds, vines and other local materials. Some are simple everyday things, such as eating and cooking utensils, while others (such as a remarkably efficient lie detector apparatus) are stretches of the imagination. Russell Johnson noted in his autobiography that the production crew enjoyed the challenge of building these props. These bamboo items include framed huts with thatched grass sides and roofs, along with bamboo closets strong enough to withstand hurricane-force winds and rain, the communal dining table and chairs, pipes for Gilligan's hot water, a stethoscope, and a pedal-powered car.
Visitors to the uncharted island. Another challenge to a viewer's suspension of disbelief is the remarkable frequency with which the island is visited by an assortment of people who repeatedly fail to assist the castaways in leaving the island.
Dream sequences in which one of the castaways dreams he or she is some character related to that week's story line. All of the castaways appeared as other characters within the dream. In later interviews and memoirs, nearly all of the actors stated that the dream episodes were among their personal favorites.
A piece of news concerning the castaways arrives from the outside world via the radio and causes distress or discord among them.
The appearance or arrival of strange objects to the island, such as a World War II naval mine, a radio that had been swallowed by a fish, a crate of radioactive vegetable seeds, plastic explosives, a robot, a live lion, a jet pack, or a "Mars Rover" that the scientists back in the United States think is sending them pictures of Mars.
Most of the slapstick comedic sequences between Hale and Denver were heavily inspired by Laurel and Hardy, particularly by Hale breaking the fourth wall by looking directly into the camera expressing his frustration with Denver's clumsiness as Oliver Hardy often did.[4]

Memories: Excited school was over for the day, and on the walk home, looking forward to kicking back with Oreos, a glass of milk, and Gillian’s Island. Also liked Brady Bunch, Flintstones, Lost in Space, and Kolchak.
With the Season 2 rendition!
Gilligans island classic Hollywood TV show I Gilligans island classic.
good childhood memories of this show have all 3 seasons on dvd
I must look into getting this DVD set.
There was only 3 seasons??? I swear I watched like 6 as a kid lmao
Gilligan getting his hand slapped, trying to build the fire, always cracks me up.
Good stuff 👍🏻😁
Wow, in all the years I watched this show, I never caught that 😂
@@JordansMom769 I'm sure it wasn't scripted, just the actors doing their best. I'm ashamed I even noticed it ;)
Everyone is deceased with the exception of "Tina Louise" who will celebrate her 87th birthday on February 11th .
Did not know that 😔. My mother always told me when you start seeing the actors that you grew up watching dying you know that you're getting older and it's going to be your time soon. I'm starting to see more and more actors I grew up with dying it's so sad to me.
Tina Louise is now 89 years old and still going strong.
@@GeminiladyJackson-xq6hc 90 years old and still going strong.
@@mrbigdaddyjoe79 I hope Tina Louise will make it to her 100th birthday.
This is actually the music from the season 2 theme not season 3
Great info thank you. You know your theme songs, and I was reading somewhere that only one of the actors on Gilligan's Island is alive today, how sad. My mother always told me when you start seeing the actors that you grew up with getting old and dying that means that you're getting old I feel like I'm getting old cuz everyone I grew up with watching is dying off so sad I guess everything changes that's guaranteed. Anyway thanks for the comment my fellow traveler and take care and have a wonderful day.
@@JohnDaniels That's ok. For some reason they decided to replace the 2nd season theme music for the 3rd Season on the DVD set and in modern syndication. Heavens knows why.
The music is season 2, but the episode is season 3, based on two clues. In the intro, Dawn Wells and Russell Johnson switched places at some point in syndication. Dawn was never on the left during the CBS run or earlier syndication years, and she’s still on the right in syndication for season 2. Also, the last 4 digits of the ID number of this episode are -0505. The season 3 episodes are all -05xx, whereas season 2 episodes are -07xx for some reason.
I noticed on my dvd set in season 2 the wrecked Minnow is shown from the air and closed in on. In season 3 it shows it up close right away.
@@kevinevans5921 Yes, the visuals are cut slightly differently for Season 3. It's not noticeable at first, but after you've seen enough episodes you can see the difference
They gave Dawn Wells top billing since Russell Johnson had top billing in Season 2.
No bathroom.
