Monkees vs. Macheen: Michael Nesmith (1942-2021)
There’s wings to the thought behind fancy,There’s wings to the thought behind playAnd dancing to rhythms of laughterMakes laughter the rhythm of rain. Mike. Mike. Mike. My favorite Monkee. The smart one. The very-funny-and-sometimes-awkward one. The one from Texas. The tall one. One of the “musician-not-actors.” The only Monkee I trusted when I was in…

Monkees Vs. Macheen: “Monkees at the Circus”
“It’s Great, It’s Terrific, It’s the Best Show on Earth” “Monkees at the Circus” is one I do remember watching in syndication in the late ’70s. It features a circus (obviously) , so of course it would make an impression on my five-year-old mind. David Panich, writer of “Monkees vs. Machine,” also wrote this one.…

Monkees Vs. Macheen: “Son Of A Gypsy”
“Everybody Wants to be in Showbiz!” “Son of a Gypsy” was written by the team of Gerald Gardner & Dee Caruso and Treva Silverman. I really do enjoy the ones that Silverman wrote. The story is about a gig gone wrong, but it is also a wildly improbable, high adventure territory as their opponents in…

Monkees vs. Macheen: “Monkee vs. Machine” (What?)
“They Just Won’t Stop with the Social Commentary” “Monkee vs. Machine”, directed by Monkees creator Robert Rafelson, aired September 26, 1966 on NBC and was written by David Panich who wrote “Monstrous Monkees Mash” and “Monkees at the Circus.” This is one of my favorites because of its unusual storyline. It’s cited on the Chaos…
