Did you catch the Monkees reference on this week's "Modern Family"?

"Hey."

"Hey."

"We're the monkeys."

I thought I was the only one who noticed that!

I saw a children's play two weeks ago about a pirate ship overrun by monkeys. Someone mentions Davy Jones' Locker, and the captain says, "Wasn't Davy Jones a... Monkee?"

All the parents laughed.

Old joke. But a good line.
