Re: Me TV
The only thing that I find worthwhile about watching The Monkees on repeated viewings are the music clips. Those are enjoyable, although there's nothing that I would describe as being mind-blowing. So much of it was derivative from the first two Beatle flicks (A Hard Day's Night & Help!) And by the time that the Fab Four put out the then-critically reviled (but way ahead of its time) Magical Mystery Tour, the Monkees' musical clips looked very tame and dated in comparison.
The problem that I have had with most "classic" TV channels for the last 20 years have been the fact that networks are using edited episodes that shave off a few minutes in order to squeeze in more commercials. That makes every showing of Hawaii Five-0 on KWHE unwatchable for me. If Me TV airs uncut versions of their shows, then they have something special. If not, then it's no better than TV Land.
