  • I was 12, at the time. I taped most of that marathon.

    Still have one of the tapes, but the audio is long gone, and the picture couldn't be saved by all the tracking adjustments, in the world.

  • Try fast forwarding the tape all the way to the end. Remove it from the player. Put it back in and rewind all the way. Then play it. This is a trick that works sometimes. It re-spools the tape so that it is at the same position on the reels all the way through. Tracking problems sometimes happen from taking a tape out halfway through viewing. 4 of these vids I posted are here because I did that.

  • I was not much into the Monkees music, but the show was amusing once in a while. This was back when almost all the MTV shows had to do with music in some degree. Even The Young Ones and Remote Control had music elements to them. Those were the days. I stopped watching MTV around '92 or so other than an occasional flip to Beavis and Butthead. More to come...

  • i remember taping the whole thing... i think i turned 14 that summer. i still have the VHS tapes, with all the episodes labeled... and now i have them on DVD, knowing this was wayyy before i thought something like a DVDs or the Glory of YouTube could be possible. makes me think what we'll have fourteen years from now. (virtual 1968-era-interactive-nez-in-my­-room...???)
