Television films (1978–2001)

There were three sequel films. The first (1978) had them rescued and proved so successful that it spawned a second (1979) and third (1981). By the third film, ratings were down, and no more were made.

In 2001, Dawn Wells co-produced a television film bio-pic, where she, Bob Denver, and Russell Johnson appear as themselves as hosts and remember what life was like during the series. In the memory scenes, they and the rest of the cast and crew are played by actors, while Dawn narrates.

Title	Original air date
Rescue from Gilligan's Island	October 14 & 21, 1978 (October 14 & 21, 1978)
The castaways turn the huts into rafts and are finally rescued, to great fanfare. On the first anniversary of their rescue they all meet in Hawaii for a reunion, and decide to take a short cruise. The weather starts to get rough, and they get stranded on the same island again. Ginger Grant portrayed by Judith Baldwin.
The Castaways on Gilligan's Island	May 3, 1979 (1979-05-03)
The castaways are once again rescued from the island, but this time they return voluntarily to build a resort on the island. Ginger Grant portrayed by Judith Baldwin.
The Harlem Globetrotters on Gilligan's Island	May 15, 1981 (1981-05-15)
The Harlem Globetrotters crashland on the island. When a millionaire tries to take over the resort, the rivalry is settled by a game between the Globetrotters and the rival's robot team. Jim Backus (Thurston Howell) has only a walk-on part at the end of the film as he was suffering the advanced stages of Parkinson's disease by then. His role on the island was filled by creating "Thurston Howell IV", played by David Ruprecht, the couple's supposed son. (Conflict with the first season episode in which Gilligan was adopted by the Howells after saving Lovey's life. He was said at that time to be their only son.) Ginger Grant portrayed by Constance Forslund.
Surviving Gilligan's Island	October 14, 2001 (2001-10-14)
A behind-the-scenes look at life as member of the Gilligan's Island cast. Dawn Wells, who was the co-executive producer; Bob Denver, and Russell Johnson reminisce about the trials and tribulations associated with making the show. These memories come to life as the cast and crew are portrayed by actors.
