Australian television
star Chips Rafferty plays a captain who has
become a pirate...yet is unfazed by Micky's
foolhardy, rash attempt to mutiny. (Micky stars
as the parrot's voice in this episode, too!)

|

Barton MacLane leaves
his "General Peterson" uniform back at
the "I Dream of Jeannie" set to play a
double-dealin' Texas millionaire land-grabber.

The blond dish is Joy

recognizable to anyone who is a fan of the movie
"Cool Hand Luke"!
|

The bespectacled kid is
Butch Patrick stepping outside his role of
"Eddie Munster" to appear on "The
Christmas Show".

Radio star and voice
man Regis Cordic as The Town Crier in "Fairy

(and Davy Jones' girlfriend) Deana Martin plays

cameo.

BUT WAIT...THERE'S MORE!
VILLAIN-IN-RESIDENCE
MONTE
LANDIS

Demon From Down
Under...but Monte Landis starts
his seven Monkees incarnations as a kindly sheik looking
to hook up Davy with his pretty daughter. (And the perqs for
his buddies aren't to be believed!)

Here
Monte plays Wilbur Zeckenbush, local political
puppetmaster looking to knock Mike out of
competition for Mayor.

museum security guards (Vic Tayback and Monte
Landis) intend to use Peter's painting talents to
commit art forgery!
|
|

Can Davy's antics and
trickery save Micky
and other victims from the clutches of health club fraud Shah-Ku?

Monte is
Major Pshaw and he's hunting Monkees with the
reluctant assistance of Rupert Crosse as his man
Thursday in "Monkees Marooned", one of
my favorite episodes!
|
|

As Oraculo the
mentalist, Monte hopes to snag a 10-week gig away
from the Monkees by turning Peter into his
psychic slave! (That's Monkees director Jim
Frawley in the back!)
|
|

So how bad can a villain
be on a groovy, romping, zany show?
Meet Mr. Zero, aka The Devil, who bought Peter's soul for a
song...
or rather, a harp.
