Here is a thought. Remake Gilligan's Island with all of the same plots and such but this time with premise revised so that it is clearly all some type of experiment being conducted and eventually the castaways start to suspect that one of them is working for whomever is conducting the experiment.

Hey - I did not say it was a good thought.

And the only way to get off the island is kill Gilligan. Of course.

Better yet, hint at a conspiracy during all of the first season, and only reveal, to the audience only, that gilligan is the one behind it during the season finale.

I would go for the twist ending. The build up seems to suggest it Gilligan until the final season, finally the Skipper, Prof and Mr. Howell confront him and kill him, then in the end it is revealed that it was actually Maryanne behind it all (or Mrs. Howell - depending on how you want to play it.)

You're all missing the point.

The whole meaning of Gilligan's Island, the fundamental premise the whole thing is based on, is that you will never leave the island while Gilligan is alive.

But if there is no twist, then there is no reason to make a new one.

Of course you could make it a double twist and they kill Gilligan, get off the island, and then find out he was just an innocent dupe and someone else was behind it.

We are talking about Hollywood, aren't we?

Good point, it does need a twist or why do it?

I'd go all surreal with it, is it real or not? Tease it a little. Reveal little by little that it might indeed be a dream.....

The viewpoint character is in extended adolescence refusing to grow up. Maybe he's having a fever dream, maybe he's on drugs. Maybe.....

Gilligan's been his friend since grade school, but now is a meth-cooking ne'er do well.

The Howell's are his neighbors.

The Professor is a friend of his parents who owns a company and is trying to offer him a job.

Mary Ann is someone he's been sweet on since college but never quite connected with, because she thinks he's still a little immature. They keep in touch.

Ginger is a tatoo'ed and pierced, hot but damaged chickie who's a barista at the coffee place near where he lives. She's 'available', comes on to him on occasion, but it sure wouldn't go anywhere meaningful.

'The Island' is him being trapped in the stagnation of his own life. He needs to realize what Gilligan is, ditch him, get the hell off the island without getting Ginger pregnant, so he can make a real life with Mary Ann.
