Interestingly, in 1964 they pitched a dramatic TV series called "Lost on Gilligan's Island" but the TV execs thought it was too dark for audiences in 1960, so it was retooled into a slapstick comedy called "Gilligan's Island".
The reboot of the original series shortened the name to "Lost" because they didn't want people to think it was a Gilligan's Island reboot. Here's the trailer to the original series:
