One Man Shy

[edit]

One thing I always liked about this episode is that Valerie always forgives Peter for his mistakes, but she never forgives Ronnie.

Also I believe the page could do with some improvement. -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 01:57, 2 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Clarisse in Monkee Mother

[edit]

They straight up lied about Clarisse being an english girl. She's american actually, or her actress is at least, so I would have thought her character should have been to. But they had to fake their way through choosing a perfect american female for an english character, or an okay english female for an english female. I got a tad suspicious when hearing her voice. I'm not the best at distinguishing english accents from american ones - I'm a kiwi myself - but Clarisse didn't really sound english, not a full english anyway. -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 22:14, 8 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

End of series timing?

[edit]

We currently say "...aired on NBC from September 1966 to March 1968. ... The program ended on Labor Day 1968"

Which is it? Labor Day is in September. The "episodes" article lists the last one as being broadcast in March. Huw Powell (talk) 14:03, 8 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]


My two cents -- I also agree that the phrasing is awkward. However, I interpreted it to mean that the last original episode aired (first run) in March 1968 and that the last rerun during the second season aired by Labor Day 1968. The start of the new TV season was (typically) Labor Day weekend -- in the 60s and 70s it was a pretty big deal. Reruns would run (sporadically) until the new season launch. Same thing happened with Star Trek and other 60s shows. Chesspride 66.19.84.2 (talk) 08:58, 11 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
