2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1

The Gnats

The Gnats
  • Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
  • Possibly the worst fictitious band on the ballot, the Gnats comprised of the four male castaways on Gilligan’s Island. In this episode they sing (although unintelligibly) as the Gnats in a bizarre attempt to get the Mosquitoes (a Beatles rip off who was stranded there) to take them off the island. As bizarre as it sounds, only on this show can it make perfect logical sense. Sometimes, it is best not to think about it and just enjoy Gilligan on the drums.
  • TV Show/Movie Appeared: Gilligan’s Island (1965)
  • Actors: Bob Denver (Gilligan, Drums)
    Alan Hale Jr. (The Skipper, “Guitar”)
    Jim Backus (Thurston Howell III, “Guitar”)
