In 1966, “Gilliganʹs Island” In “The Producer,” Hollywood deal-maker Harold Hecuba (Phil Silvers) is looking for talent in “out-of-the-way places” when his plane crashes on our favorite tropical isle. To impress the impresario, the castaways mount a musical version of “Hamlet” with Gilligan (Bob Denver) in the title roll. It ainʹt Shakespeare, but it does get the producerʹs attention. He quickly rechristens it “Harold Hecubaʹs Hamlet” and swipes all the singing parts for himself (a quicksilver bit of shtick for Silvers, above, with cast). At the end of this inventive episode, Hecuba steals away — and steals the idea — leaving a sadder but wiser Gilligan to pronounce the moral: “Well, thatʹs showbiz.”
