"Fairy Tale"

According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "Fairy Tale" - the forty-eighth episode of The Monkees series (and the sixteenth of the second season) - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (8 January 1968).  It was written by Peter Meyerson, directed by James Frawley, and featured the song "Daily Nightly."  Sandoval describes the plot as: "The group put their own twist on a classic fairy tale."
