According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "Son of a Gypsy" - the sixteenth episode of The Monkees series - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (26 December 1966). It was written by Gerald Gardner, Dee Caruso, and Treva Silverman, directed by James Frawley, and featured the song "I'm a Believer." Sandoval describes the plot as: "A band of jealous gypsies kidnap Peter after The Monkees purloin their party gig."
