A few years before he directed "Five Easy Pieces", Bob Rafelson assembled four young men into a musical group based on The Beatles, and thus The Monkees were born. "The Monkees" depicts the band's fictional escapades, consisting of zany antics. This combo of the "cute" Davy Jones, the oddball Peter Tork, the jolly Mickey Dolenz and the folksy Michael Nesmith made for one fun series.
While we could be cynical and note that as a studio band, the Monkees didn't write their own songs or even play their own instruments. But seriously, the point is to have fun! There's no way not to have fun while watching this show. You're bound to love it.
score 10/10
