Earlier this year, I appeared in a production of Gilligan's Island-The Musical. (I played The Skipper.) So, for a while there, I was thinking about this show an awful lot. I always found the writing and vaudeville humor awfully stupid and predictable, but the cast were so perfect, they made it all work. Every one of them managed to stake a place in the collective unconscious. Gilligan was certainly the most lovable of them.
Actually, I wish someone would run the old Dobie Gillis show again, because I liked Bob Denver's Maynard G. Krebbs even more!
So long, little buddy. OOF!
