Muhammad, 35, a psychology and
human sexuality professor from At­
lanta, stars as one of the Professors
in the upcoming second installment
ofTBS' “The Real Gilligan’s Island,"
which premieres June 8.

said. (The Harlem Globetrotters vis­
ited the island in a 1981 TV movie.)

’60s stranded-on-an-uncharted-is-
land sitcom, two real-life versions

together in a village reminiscent of
the CBS show
