Publisher's summary

Introduction by Dreama Denver—Gilligan's Island and The Many Lives of Dobie Gillis are two of the most popular shows in television history, and Bob Denver takes us backstage and behind the scenes!

Recorded by Bob Denver, this audiobook contains hundreds of stories about the cast and crews of Denver's various shows. Gilligan, Maynard, & Me also provides a genial insider's view of how Hollywood and television work: the way pilots and series are created; his relationships with Max Schulman of Dobie Gillis and Sherwood Schwartz with Max Schulman of Dobie Gillis and Sherwood Schwartz of Gilligan's Island; the task of casting the skipper, the millionaire (and his wife), the movie star, the professor, and Mary Ann; the decisions and antics of studio and network executives which turned out to be far wackier than anything every staged for a sitcom. His fondest memories of Dwayne Hickman, Warren Beatty, Tuesday Weld, Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Dawn Wells, Russell Johnson, and that inimitable movie star, Tina Louise.

Must-listen for all baby boomers and show-biz buffs, Gilligan, Maynard, & Me is sure to put a smile on the face of anyone who's ever relished the outrageous antics and self-deprecating slapstick of that television original, Bob Denver.

Work!!!!!

Bob Denver is very candid and funny about some of the incidents that he was involved in during the making of Dobie Gillis as well as Gilligans Island.
He is so refreshingly unpretentious. How he even got into show business and appeared on Dobie Gillis as Maynard is impossible simple. Much less starring on another hit sitcom ,Gilligans Island. There are great behind the scenes stories wryly
told with Denver's quirky sense of humor. He is Maynard even in the pacing of his narration. Dreama bis wife also adds a sense of gratitude and kindness in her part of the narration to the fans of both shows. "Hey little buddy, good job."!
