They don't make shows like they used to for kids. Gilligans Island was one I used to watch as soon as I got home from elementary school back in the 70's.

I know he will be remembered as Gilligan. But, first saw him as Maynard G. Krebs in The Many Lives of Dobie Gilles. He was much hipper and even more funny. I'll miss him

He was a classic, for sure. It is funny how the actors/actresses never age in our minds.
Little Joe Cartwright comes to mind, too.
RIP Gilligan, and thanks for being part of my childhood...

I remember him first as Maynard too. thopught he was funnier in that role to. He does stand in my mind as always young, though it has been a looong time since I saw him in anything. Visited the area in Hawaii where they filmed Giligan's Island by chance not too long ago though. RIP

Oh Yeah!!....Dobie Gillis!! Thanx for the memory, Jack
I first remember Dwaine Hickman as Bob Cummings nephew on "Love that Bob" Remember the secretary/photographic assistant "Schultsie" who went on to be Alice on the "Brady Bunch"?
But yes, Maynard; or Gilligan, will be missed. I found him a more believable character on "Dobie", as well.

I really thought Tuesday Weld was sharp, so I must have been at least old enough to notice!
