Without a doubt, the Beatles was one of the biggest bands of the 1960s. As Beatlemania swept the world, the Fab Four capitalized on their popularity with the 1964 musical comedy A Hard Day’s Night. The film wasn’t just a financial and critical success — it opened the door to one of the most impactful TV series of the decade: The Monkees.
While it’s easy to brush off both the show and its band as a byproduct of the Beatles’ popularity, The Monkees was much more important to television and pop culture than you might think. This is The Monkees: the untold truth of the TV show.
