R.I.P. Sherwood Schwartz

 

Sherwood Schwartz, the creator of The Brady Bunch and Gilligan’s Island as well as their catchy theme songs, has passed away at the age of 94.

The Emmy-winning legend began writing jokes for Bob Hope before launching the world famous television sitcoms and writing their songs that I now can’t get out of my head. He was working on a big screen Gilligan’s Island when he fell ill last week. He is survived by his wife of 69 years and their four children and the Harlem Globetrotters. (AP)
