DECEMBER 18, 1971

“The Monkees On Tour”, Episode No. 32 of The Monkees (prod. #4753, aired on NBC April 24 and August 21, 1967), was repeated @ noon (EDT) on CBS, with a new song added: "Steam Engine" written by Chip Douglas.

Trivia Footnote: This was the only broadcast of “The Monkees On Tour” during the Saturday Afternoon run of The Monkees. This version of the episode redubbed with "Steam Engine" would later be absorbed into the 1986 Colex syndication package.

"It's A Nice Place To Visit..." (a.k.a. "The Monkees In Mexico"), Episode No. 33 of The Monkees (prod. #4752, first aired on NBC September 11, 1967 as the opener to its second season), was repeated @ 7:30 p.m. (EDT) on NBC.
