Synopsis of The Monkees: The Christmas Show
Butch Patrick, late of The Munsters, plays a wealthy and cynical youngster named Melvin Vandersnoot. Hired to look after the boy, the Monkees take advantage of the holiday season to show Melvin the true meaning of Christmas -- and, incidentally, to prove that money isn't everything. Burt Mustin, who played an octogenarian Tarzan-type on the previous episode "Monkees Marooned," is here seen as Melvin's butler. At the end of the episode, The Monkees introduce the series' production crew, joining them in wishing the viewers a merry Christmas. Song: "Riu Chiu". Scripted by Neil Burstyn from a story by Burstyn and Dave Evans, "The Christmas Story" aired, appropriately enough, on December 25, 1967. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
