Personality
Gilligan's personality can be labeled as funny, sensitive, klutzy, and scared due to the fact that throughout the series he is always doing clumsy and funny things, but is sometimes thoughtful and kind. Usually, when faced with headhunters and kidnappers, Gilligan is visibly scared, though when things get serious he has been known to display a brave streak. Gilligan sometimes doesn't understand words like "navigatable" or "gourment" and is very forgetful. Gilligan is always accident-prone, and usually disaster follows him where he goes. In one episode when the Skipper is trying to reconstruct the accident that maroon the castaways, it is mentioned that Gilligan lost the anchor; rescue lattern and life raft overboard
Gilligan often gets nervous around girls, especially if they try and kiss him.
