Maynard G. Krebs is a character in the
60's TV show The Many Loves of
Dobie Gillis. Most of you probably know him as
Gilligan from
Gilligan's Island. His real name is
Bob Denver however. (NO not
John Denver he's a dead country star!)
Maynard G. Krebs was supposed to be a
beatnik but was not really one. He was of course the Max Shulman made up
Hollywood version of a
beatnik. He could actually be the first ever TV
slacker. He was often heard making the statement "WORK?!?".
