Gilligan’s Island Creator Sherwood Schwartz Always Knew That The Series Would Become A Hit

This might become a shock but “Gilligan Island” was not well held Critics during its three seasons at CBS in the 1960s. Sitcom about seven Castaways, who had stuck on an uncharted island somewhere in the Pacific, was barely at that time a stylish show on the television (sitcom “my mother, car” owned this difference), but its wide wide gags and a repeated formula – how do Gilligiga and gangs get from the island this week? – They were far from the witchcraft and relative sophistication of the “The Dick Van Dyke Show” event.

Artists tend to be desperate for approval, so you may think that all the critical oprobiums burned at the “Gilligan’s Island” event are shocked by Sherwood Schwartz, the creator of the exhibition. It was, after all, the first series that Veteran Comedy Creative created a business 26 years earlier as a Bob Hope’s Radio Show. If it did not succeed in the viewers, he may never get a new shot – because at the moment, three big networks were mostly the only game in the city when it came to getting a television program in the air.

If Schwartz sweated the reviews, he certainly did not share his anxiety in interviews. In fact, he was completely attractive from terrible announcements.

In the interview, Schwartz admitted during the original CBS run of Portland Press Herald series that critics were not “Gilligan Island” fans before observation “[T]There are more public than critics here. “The creator of the program continued to joke,” Next year, intellectual critics are likely to look at “Gilligan Island”. Then they write theses on ‘social satire at many levels’ … maybe professors are looking for a deeper satire. “

“Gilligan Island” has actually been created critical analyzes over the years. Who can forget about a worrying description of Christine Harnos’s dismantling series over the women’s bathroom Cigs “Dazed and Deconed?” Closer to Home, /The movie’s own Witney Seibold has written How “Gilligan Island” uses Commedia Dell Architects. The “Gilligan’s Island” event is going on if you decide to look at the characters’ Pelle screams.

Even Schwartz praised the exhibition for the unpleasantness of the exhibition. As he told Portland Press Herald:

“When I first explained my thoughts on the island and the people of people, just happened – just happen, take into consideration – to use the word ‘microcosmos’, the world in the miniature, which” Gilligan Island “is.

So the next time you notice the deadly time on the “Gilligan Island” marathon, remember the wise words of Harnos, Seibold and Schwartz and understand that you have been presented with real, piercing art.
