“Monkee See, Monkee Die” (prod. # 4705) first aired @ 7:30 p.m. (EDT) on NBC as the 2nd episode of The Monkees.
The sponsor of the week was Slicker and Black Label by Yardley Of London, and the songs featured were "Last Train To Clarksville" by Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart and "Tomorrow's Gonna Be Another Day" (erroneously listed as "Tomorrow Is Another Day") by Tommy Boyce & Steve Venet.
This episode marked "Last Train To Clarksville"'s debut appearance on the series. The next 2 episodes would feature the tune, and the prolonged TV exposure would help displace ? and The Mysterians' "96 Tears" to ensure "Last Train To Clarksville"'s status as the first #1 hit for The Monkees for 2 weeks. It was issued on the A-side of the Colgems #66-1001 single on August 16, 1966, well ahead of time--almost 4 weeks before the official NBC debut of The Monkees' TV series!--to accurately time it for weekly network promotion.
