On September 12, 1966, NBC television premiered a new television show, titled The Monkees. Featuring four young men (Mickey Dolenz, Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork), the show actually launched a music career for the group. The Monkees became one of the first boy bands, to screams of delight from adolescent girls.
Today’s Meme Express is all about The Monkees or boy bands or simply monkeys.

Were you a fan . . . or not?
