I'm so sad about this because I love the Monkees to bits but hate the fandom. It is overwhelmingly full of boring commentary on their dick size and how they'd perform in bed and whether Pete was really bisexual etc etc etc. I feel like there's lack of space to actually just sit down and say, "hey, I really love the episode where..." I know, I know, it's harmless and I can scroll by, but it really does feel like the fandom is full of undersexed obsessives who want to write Mary-Sues all the time. And dear god, this fandom has the WORST fic I have ever come across.

THIS

Ugh, I hate the fandom. I steered away from it pretty quickly.

I was really happy seeing there was a fandom, and then...

"It is overwhelmingly full of boring commentary on their dick size"

No. Just no. Happy I've avoided it, really.

WOW. I was super-active in the Monkees fandom back from '97 to '99, and YES, we were whackjob obsessive Marysue fangirls on a unending sugar high from hell, but we were never pervy litle creepers about it. It's one thing to be dingdong when you're 13, another thing entirely when you're 23.

/ please tell me someone here remembers the Swooning Hippie Chicks and our round-robin story of doom.
// or Mike's cross-dressing alter ego that was written into the story... who was named Carlisle Wheeling
/// lol, her inclusion pissed me off so much way back when... she's not canon, damn it!

Honestly I find the dick size discussing "pervy litle creepers" and the "whackjob obsessive Marysue fangirls on a unending sugar high from hell" are on pretty equal footing of DNW.

But we were still young enough to keep our minds out of the Monkees' swimsuit areas, lol.

It was a simpler time.

Now my brain is trying to write a pastiche of What's My Age Again. Darn you.

See, you make it sound like a fun, creative yet silly fandom (much like the show itself) ... the current fandom just sounds plain creepy and uninspiring.

(These made completely from the outside looking in.)

OP

Oh, I'm so glad someone else finds the same thing! I've been feeling like it was just me :) I mean, it just seems like all the dick stuff and sex stuff is all there IS - and like you said - it's just incredibly boring if you want something different. And yeah, I've managed to find some good fic, but overall, the standard is depressingly low.
