The Monkees were a pop rock quartet assembled by Robert "Bob" Rafelson and Bert Schneider in Los Angeles in 1966 for the Americantelevision series The Monkees, which aired from 1966 to 1968. The members were Americans Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith, Peter Tork, and Englishman Davy Jones, who were supervised and popularized by Don Kirshner.At the time of the band's formation, its producers saw The Monkees as a Beatles-like band.[1] At the start, the band members provided vocals, and were given some performing and production opportunities, but they eventually fought for and earned the right to collectively supervise all musical output under the band's name. The group undertook several concert tours, allowing an opportunity to perform as a live band as well as on the TV series. Although the show was canceled in 1968, the band continued releasing records until 1970. In the 1980s, the television show and music experienced a revival, which led to a series of reunion tours, and new records featuring various incarnations of the band's lineup.

What was unusual about the Monkees apart from being about a fake rock band?

The Monkees was one of a very few civilian ( which excludes service comedies) sitcoms that was not, in any sense about a family, and also one of less than a handful that oculd be called Musical Comedies- the others being Partridge Family and in a sense, Sha-Na-Na. The Monkees television show was about a fake rock band, but the Monkees themselves were far from being fake. They were a real rock band in real life. Agreed. If by fake you mean manufactured, the same charge could be made against many other groups. The Grass Roots and the Village People were manufactured, and the Oak Ridge Boys are nothing more than a corporation.
