Two wonderful stories, both of which bring tears to the eyes at one point or another. Rose Marie puts her finger unfailingly on what's special about each of the boys, and Mike and Peter's stalwart holiday cheer shines like the star on top of their $20 Christmas tree. I've never heard a more beautiful rendition of "Riu, Riu, Chiu."

I have a few Monkees episode videos and I like this one best!The first episode,Monkees mother,is awesome!Rose Marie moves in with the boys,and they go from disliking the lady to loving her.The sweetness of the Monkees and the 2 great songs they perform add up to a winner.The second episode where our boys teach a bratty boy(Butch Patrick) the value of Christmas and friendship is good too.If only the world were as sweet and loving as our Monkees........

Rose Marie is the best mother anyone could ever have. Also, the heartwarming episode at Christmas is wonderful. Way to go!

The first episode is called "Monkee Mother." In this show, the Monkees are unable to pay the rent and are kicked out of thier beachside home by the landlord. Rose Marie plays a widow that moves in to the Monkees home and lets the Monkees stay as boarders. The second episode is "Monkees Christmas Show." Here, the Monkees teach a young boy about the true meaning of Christmas.

What can I say about this? The Monkees are a true classic! So happy to have found it here at Amazon!

This is worth it for the rendition of Riu Chiu alone! And if you love the antic of the Monkee's, even better!
