The New Adventures of Gilligan

Summary

The New Adventures of Gilligan is an animated Saturday morning animated series created by Filmation Studios that aired on ABC from 1974 to 1977, seven years after the last episode of "Gilligan's island." It involved the further adventures of Gilligan and The Castaways, but Ginger was turned into a blonde to avoid litigation with Tina Louise over the rights of her image. The character was further voiced by voice-over actress Jane Webb, since Louise declined to reprise her role as Ginger. Webb also voiced Mary Ann since Dawn Wells had been in a play traveling on the road. She offered to do the part if the producers would pay off the troupe for breaking her contract, but it was decided Wells wanted too much money with that request as well as salary. The rest of the series cast returned to reprise their characters. Several episodes were set up as morality-plays to teach kids lessons and included an adult laugh track. The series was followed by Gilligan's Planet in the Eighties.
