The untold behind the scenes stories of your favorite TV shows from the people who were there.

 Today, part two of my conversation with the legendary creator of Gilligan's Island and the Brady Bunch: Sherwood Schwartz.

This time we're continuing his story about leaving Bob Hope - including Hope's lesson to Schwartz.

 The blessing of the curse of being a comedy writer. 

How the TV industry typecasts even the most successful  producers.

The international fame and the timelessness of Gilligan's Island. Schwartz also talks about the Mosquitoes: remember them? 

Plus you'll learn the origins of the Gilligan's Island theme song. How that little silly little ditty sold the network on the show,  even when the original pilot didn't.
