"Monkee Mayor"

According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "Monkee Mayor" - the thirty-sixth episode of The Monkees series (and the fourth of the second season) - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (2 October 1967).  It was written by Jack Winter, directed by Alex Singer, and featured the songs "No Time" and "Pleasant Valley Sunday."  Sandoval describes the plot as: "Mike runs for mayor in a bid to save the group's groovy pad."
