Gilligan's Island is one of the most popular television series in the history of television. It originally aired in 1964 and is still popular today in reruns and on DVD. The series is about seven people (two crewmembers and five tourists) take a 3-hour sightseeing tour in a marina in Hawaii. This occurs on the boat, S.S. Minnow. An unexpected storm sends the boat to an uncharted island. Now the passengers of the boat have to live on the island and try to find a way home. Most of the episodes involved the charaters trying to survive a problem or trying to contact help.
