Gilligan’s Island… More Depth Than Thought…

I just read an article that stated that Sherwood Shwartz, the creator of Gilligan’s Island, used the 7 characters as metaphors for the “7 Deadly Sins”. Interesting!

There was also a statement that Gilligan was always the reason that they never got off the island, so the island represented “hell” and Gilligan (wearing the color red) represented Satan keeping them there.
