Bob Denver was already a staple of 1960s TV before he landed the role of Willie Gilligan on Gilligan's Island, but he would forever be known as the bucket hat-wearing "little buddy" for the rest of his career. Starring in another of the best sitcoms of the 1960s, Denver had an impressive run as Maynard G. Krebs in The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis. He...
The most accomplished actor in the cast by the time he appeared in Gilligan's Island, Alan Hale Jr. was a veteran of dozens of movies and shows by 1964. Embodying the warm and lovable spirit of the Skipper, Hale Jr.'s turn in Gilligan's Island was in stark contrast to the cowboys he had usually played in westerns. Hale Jr. managed to elevate even t...
Already famous for providing the voice of the iconic cartoon character Mr. Magoo, Jim Backus' character work nabbed him the role of Thurston Howell III on Gilligan's Island.

Russell Johnson was a fixture of westerns and b-horror pictures throughout the '40s and '50s, but he truly made his mark as Professor Hinkley on Gilligan's Island. Many of Gilligan's Island's best episodes featured the Professor's inventions, and Johnson never missed the irony of the character's inability to do simple tasks. Johnson found himself t...

Mary Ann was the wholesome and innocent farm girl, and Dawn Wells' performance made the audience fall in love with her. After her time on one of the most influential shows of the '60s, Dawn Well...
Though he was uncredited throughout the entire show, actor Charles Maxwell was a large part of the legacy of Gilligan's Island. Maxwell provided the voice for the never-seen radio announcer who broadcast the news for the castaways to hear, and his dulcet tones became a staple of the show. Maxwell's career in Hollywood saw him become a staple of 196...
