It’s ‘Gilligan’s Island.’ If it’s still on the air 50 years after I’m dead, wonderful,” said Gemmill.” I’m just so damn lucky to get paid not to have people shoot at me or run into a burning building.” When Nickerson noted that of Gemmill is right, he also had a follow up question: “The thing that we need to know is how you hold onto that perspective and frame when the void that lives inside you is threatening to eat everything you ever thought you could be, would be or should be.”
