8-year-old Recreates ‘The Monkees’ Opening Sequence with Toys, Mostly LEGO

First of all, it warms my heart that an 8-year-old knows who The Monkees were, and that he has watched their TV show enough to know the opening sequence. You know it too, you can admit it. That theme song is likely stuck in your head now. You’re welcome.

Dylan Reitz is an awesome kid. He created a stop-motion version of The Monkees TV show opening sequence using his toys. He used a lot of LEGO bricks, stuffed animals, and even fingerboards. In the video you can see a side-by-side comparison to see what an amazing job he did.

I’m glad to see that some kids still know The Monkees today. It was a silly and fun show. Timeless really.
