Comrade Rocket I grew up on the show. I once remember watching an all day Marathon.

I used to look like the one who wore a beanie.

Dole I fucking love the Monkees. Head is a masterpiece, and the TV show was great.

Miss Modular I The Monkees. Both the music and the TV Show.

Sure, they were fake, but for awhile, they knew their place. They weren't the first manufactured pop artists, they just put a face on it.

Plus, the show has never gotten the proper credit it deserves. Forget Saturday Night Live. The Monkees were the first TV program to really deconstruct popular culture. You can get the show off of Netflix.

Royal Tenenbaum The only episode of the Monkees I ever liked was the one where Zappa guested starred and bashed a van.

Rongi I doubt it's on TV land...that would be cool though.
Mar 9th, 2004 09:39 PM
phnompehn Is it still on TV Land? Now all Nick at Nite shows is stuff I sort of remember being new. I mean, Full House? God damn.
Mar 9th, 2004 09:34 PM
Rongi Yeah, I didn't mean the music. Oh no, I'm glad I didn't grow up with that shit. I meant the show. I always hear how great the show was

Mockery Actually, the Monkees TV show was pretty damned spiffy. I used to watch the re-runs on Nickelodeon all the time.

Bobo Adobo Yeah, growing up with the Backstreet Boys and NSYNC is equivelent to growing up with the Monkees. They were first mass-marketed manufactured band that is the inspiration for all the crap thats clogging the radiowaves today, and the reasons shows like "American Idol" and "Making the Band" are popular.

Just like lennon said about the people in control of the music business have no idea whats its all about.

I will admit they had some catchy lyrics.

"Take the last train to clarksville and I'll meet you at the station... BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH"

phnompehn Is not growing up with the monkees something to be sad about? I mean, that's like me being sad that I never saw the Superbowl Shuffle.

The Monkees

Unfortunatly I didn't grow up with the monkees . I saw Head once when I was 4 so I didn't really get it. Chances are I still wouldn't get it
