Gilligan's Island was the beloved castaway sitcom of the 1960s. It aired three seasons on CBS (1964-1967) and featured a cast that worked almost only with seven actors.
Bob Denver, Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Natalie Schafer, Tina Louise, Russell Johnson and Dawn Wells were the main cast stranded after a shipwreck on the S.S. Minnow. Outside of these actors, Charles Maxwell received the most episode credits, as the radio announcer in nine episodes.
