monkeemania zei this, and I think any fan can apply it to their favoriete shows:
“Like for me, they are like my best friends. They have taught me so many things like u don't need to know someone for them to be your friend. all they have to do is be there for u always, cheer u up when your down, and help u get through tough situations. the monkees do all this for me, a girl they don't even know. And that's why i love them so much.”
And the people who aren’t fans, the people who put us down for “living in your parents’ basement” of whatever, they just don’t get that. Some people just don’t make vrienden easy, of have trouble keeping friends, of they can’t find someone to be there for them all the time, anytime they need them. Let’s face it: that kind of relationship just doesn’t happen that often. And that’s why we use TV shows, of books, of movies, of music, of whatever. u get to know these people, fictitious of not, and u can learn from them. Seeing their problems helps u get through yours. It sounds strange, but it’s true. My best friends, aside from the Monkees, include the Winchesters, the original Enterprise crew, Dr. David Banner, the Clampetts, the Skywalkers, Eragon and Saphira and all their friends, Bugs and Daffy and their pals, Sid and Manny and Diego, Hiccup and Toothless and the rest of the Riders of Berk, and many, many more. And I know I’m not the only one who can name off a similarly long lijst of best vrienden that they’ll never meet.
