Gilligan’s Island: The Shocking Truth Behind the Cast’s Turbulent Lives!
Bob Denver, who portrayed the clumsy yet lovable Gilligan, brought warmth and humor to the series. Born in 1935, Denver’s portrayal of the naïve first mate became a defining role in his career, culminating in his passing in 2005 at the age of 70. Alan Hale Jr. played the strong and protective Skipper, a role he embraced from 1964 until his death in 1990 at the age of 68, leaving a legacy of fatherly charm.
