Subject: Lloyd Schwartz Announces Gilligan’s Island Reboot

Written By: LyricBoy on 10/04/19 at 5:22 am

Hollywood mogul Lloyd Schwartz, son of legendary TV mogul Sherwood Schwartz, has announced that a feature-film-format reboot of the beloved TV series Gilligan’s Island is in the works.  8)

Dawn Wells :-* and Tina Louise 8-P are available to reprise their roles.

Let’s hope this will be better than the TV movies such as “Rescue from Gilligan’s Island” that were done years back.

I doubt if the reboot will work in 2019 but we'll see and let them take a chance.

In the original series, was there content matter that is not suitable for today's television viewing?

It was an all white, heterosexual cast. So the reboot will need to have a couple of blacks, an Hispanic or two, two gay dudes and a transgender. Oh, and at least one Muslim.

Aren't lesbian female in the first place?

I see no reason why a man cannot identify as a lesbian. After all, some women identify themselves as gay.

A lesbian is a homosexual woman, if it is a man he is transgender...

I comment no more on this subject.

Well in the Magnum PI reboot, Magnum is a chick. And in the Equalizer reboot, the Equalizer was a black dude instead of a stuffy Brit. So anything is game here.

Edward Woodward may had been stuffy, but he still won the 1986 Golden Globe Award for Best Television Drama Actor for his role in "The Equalizer".

Woodward was The Man in that show. Very classy series.  8)

It was The A-Team for the thinking man.
