The Mexico episode
Mar. 7th, 2011 10:45 pmI'm trying the Paid account trial. It's nice to have more icons again. I remember when I used to be able to afford a Paid account.
I've always loved this icon here, which I took from some long-ago icon post by someone. (I think? Either that or it's her own icon she was using that she gave me permission to take.) It looks like it's from the photo shoots of one of my favorite episodes, #33, It's a Nice Place to Visit.
It's strange. Even though Davy is probably the central character in that episode, causing the conflict and all, I keep thinking of it as a Micky episode. But he does have some classic scenes, from trying to convince the townspeople to rise against the bandits ruling the town to pretending to be a Mexican bandit and "mingling" by dancing on a table to the final, awesome scenes that parody old Westerns by having him in white. He's the one El Diablo challenges to the duel, which surprised me a bit, but I suppose it's because Mike passed Micky off as the leader of their bandit gang.
The somewhat melancholy, yet majestic, horn version of The Monkees' theme that plays as the showdown begins is epic.
I absolutely love Micky's calm reaction as El Diablo shoots all around him before even finishing counting to three. Then, without warning, Micky bursts into childish taunting and faces as he exclaims, "You missed! You missed!" I would love a moving GIF icon of that. It's classic Micky.
