In his dreams, he often finds himself losing swords in sword fights, getting caught by giants or accidentally shooting his pet duck. Gilligan also seems conscious that he is a screw-up. Gilligan is also vocal about not getting married, even in a pretend marriage to Mary Ann. This is reflected in his playful personality even when he gets hurt, he says he sees stars, "but they're shaped like hot dogs." Because he thinks of himself as a young boy, Gilligan often gets nervous around the girls, especially if they try and kiss him, especially Mary Ann and Ginger, who both seem act as if they have a crush on him at times.

Gilligan is accident-prone, and usually, disaster follows him wherever he goes. Obviously not very intellectual, Gilligan sometimes doesn't understand words like "navigable" or "gourmet" and is very forgetful. Usually, when faced with headhunters and kidnappers, Gilligan is visibly scared, though when things get serious, he has been known to display a brave streak.
