    One of my favorite TV shows growing up. So influential to my comedic sensibilities that I created a parody of them in the comic book I'm working on.

    Took me until my teens to get to know them, but it was in 2011 when I began watching the TV show regularly
    (I remember watching The Christmas Show back when I was a kid and I loved it then).
    It's now one of my favorite TV shows ever, and anytime it's on, I'm watching.
    Still hilarious and endearing.
    And I've been blasting their music ever since. One of the best pop/rock/whatever bands in history.

    Loved the TV show. in the intro it is in the chorus Hey Hey We're the Monkees. And loved the music afterwards!

    They don't get enough respect because of their tv band origins. But they've got some real solid songs. I was pretty happy when they used Goin' Down during a montage on Breaking Bad once.

    Anyone seen the 1968 movie Head?
    If you thought the show was weird...nobody ever lends money to a man with a sense of humor.

    They have been credited with pioneering (some may even say inventing) country-rock music, particularly due to Mike Nesmith.
