@solidfoamsoul True, but remember he dropped out of the group shortly afterwards earning him the rath of the other Monkees. It would be my guess that Mike was only doing this movie for the money.
The taller guy is Michael Nesmith? If he is he looks so different as when was young, the rest haven't change much, just look older, but all still look cute.
I was so glad the Monkees did this special. It was well-produced and well-liked by the critics. I made darn sure that my grade-school kids watched this and tapes of the 60s TV show. I wanted them to enjoy the Monkees like I did when I was their age. I grew more fond of them than I did the Beatles because I got to visit them once a week. We were lucky to see anything from the Beatles once a year. Kudos to the Monkees. You had a good run.
@squirm13 send link - i can tell ya..... There was a Disney biography out at the time, this TV special, and a VHS called "JUSTUS"; each very different from each other.
@RevSpike i have a biography from uk channel 4, which was very in depth, and another one, but not seen the disney one, or the justus one, which i will probably get.
@squirm13 i was saying there were THREE things out at that time - the tv special which pretended it was just another Monkees episode, 30 years later (i have a copy i taped from tv when it was one, then there is the commercially-released Rhino VHS called JUSTUS, and then theres the Disney special bio called "Hey hey We're The Monkees". I've been collecting since 74, I'd be happy to help with any questions if I can! Dyu have all the albums yet?
I understand the thing about taking down parts of the episode. I got suspendeded b/c I posted the entire Six Million Dollar Man pilot movie called "The Moon and the Desert." But I remember the night this came on. It was the year before we got DirecTV, and we were still using an aerial for TV. The nearest ABC affiliate to us was 3 hrs away in Pittsburgh. I was all over town looking for someone with cable!!!
I remember when this came on TV back in 97', about a month or two before I was married. So hard to believe that it was 30 years ago at that time, and now it's been upped to 43 in 2010. I also remember watching the reruns back in 1970 when I was 6, and I ask myself...where in the HELL did the time go?!?
Oh boy... I worked on this show. The first time they tried to shoot this scene on the beach, a lite drizzle turned into a full out rain. We had to cancel the shoot and head indoors & scramble to shoot the "Throw Up" scene.
@bradpix Nice to have details about the shoot. The Monkees Show was the very first TV series I watched on my own and wasn't tuned in because my parents watched it.
Youtube took them down. I can't re-upload them without risking complete suspension, so I'm leaving these parts up so that some of it is here at least. ;/
that's stupid....they only allowed you parts 3 and 5? that's really absurd.....I was hoping to see the whole thing since I didn't get to see it when it was on years ago....
@johnny10301968 I was half-joking....but, seriously.....Youtube is the one that takes down videos that they deem innapropriate....or if it's not licensed by them
@solidfoamsoul couldn't you just tweak the video? I know a coupla friends who got by the copyright "bots" because they tweaked a song enough. or could you get another channel for the sake of the video?? just a thought.. though the idea is really just absurd, I know.
am I the only one who thinks Mike's "once every 5 years or so" comment was his way of hinting at the band's disgust of the scripts from the old series?
does anyone else think that davy requested to be in drag?

Re how they looked:
- Davy, good hair, looked nice
- Peter, Still with long 60's style hair in the late 90's. He should have it shorter (more marine look). Otherwise, he looked nice with the tux.
- Mike, Handsome, should have a goatee rather than a beard
- Mickey, he could hold the ponytail. At least it was not hanging like in the 60's. I prefer a shorter haircut, but he was able to hold it off.
