Storyline
Micky, Mike, Peter, and Davy are four young men in mid-1960s LA, members of a struggling country-folk-rock band looking for their big break amid madcap encounters with a variety of people straight out of TV/movie central casting, with full knowledge that their existence is part of a weekly television series. The real-life young men occasionally discuss off-camera matters with their producer, Robert Rafelson, at the end of episodes, and perform a litany engaging country-folk-rock songs each week.
