I mean people who have such bad OCD as monk has? Do you think they exist?

Did they do any episodes where the victim themselves turned out not to be dead and were the killer? Or that idea was at least played with even if that's not the case? Can you name them if so? It's a trope I'm interested in seeing done even if it spoils it for me (and it won't fully if it could also just be an idea that's played with). I've seen every episode but can't remember offhand.

So I'm watching monk and just watched S7EP14 monk and the bully and I am SUPER annoyed ...

Nobody is standing up for my nk, Natalie should have stood up for him when the annoying bully didn't show any remorse or regret when kijk read his card about how that guy ruined his life.

Neither did the captain or any..

I feel like this is one of the worst episodes that have been written.

I for one would never ever let someone downplay a heartfelt speech about my friends life been ruined. I would have stood up and walked away.

Since I've been severely bullied it really pisses me off the writers didn't give monk any closure.

Although that is too be expected...every single time monk has a chance of redemption, of being more happy the writers just take it away again...let it go already give that man some happiness geeesus

End of rant

I did start noticing things which were not even or clean.

i started another rewatch last night and on netflix i swear the first episodes were a part one and two of the candidate, on prime it was only one episode

has it always been one episode?

My wife has been a long time fan and was excited for me to watch this. I like the show a lot - even though Monk can drive me crazy at times (hits too close to home lol).

But I noticed a pattern to the show that now annoys my wife because it had been generally true.

Now, caveat, I have not tracked this data. It is anecdotal now but can be easily translated to actual analytics. But I look this up for every single episode. I am on my first watch through and am at season 8 episode 9.

Ok, now that that is out of the way I have noticed a pattern around the criminals. Most (not all) of the criminals who are men are 6ft or over. I would guess 80-85%.

Whenever I see a tall character introduced, I now assume he is the bad guy. I joked about this with my wife and she was mildly amused at first but then mildly annoyed when I was right more often then not and now back to mildly amused (she's watched it before but when I call out the bad guy in 2 mins with no evidence but height it had to be annoying).

Just curious if anyone else picked up on this?

I was scrolling through my streaming services to find a new show to go to sleep to after losing Monk on Netflix.. and to my surprise it’s now on prime! All 8 seasons!

I know it’s a silly nitpick but it bothers me lol. Lole if he just did any thinking at he could just marry someone who didn’t have a connection to the police right? Or even tell them about the plot to steal the gold and then just kill them after anyways.

S2:E15

When Tony Shalhoub as Monk uttered the dialogue " I've got the munchies, man!!!" It felt so real and authentic, it made me feel like the actor may have tried it at some point in his life 🤣🤣

I'm not saying everything episode but like few times each season. Because having a recurring character be the one who killed his wife is a plot twist not suspecting anything. Again my opinion

I have just rewatched it and man o laughed so much in this ep

I've always loved murder mysteries. Columbo, Law & Order. And I love comedies like Brooklyn 99.

And this show, with the guest stars. Amazing. I just got to Andy Richter. Insane.

Stanley Tucci and Alice Cooper were awesome gets.

Just finished watching the series. While we always knew how much Monk loved Trudy and it was never in question, how Monk reacts to hearing that Trudy had a daughter who was still alive really struck me.

Here’s someone who idolized his wife and likely couldn’t bare the thought of another man being with her even in the past. But the moment Monk learned that Molly was alive, his first reaction was heartfelt joy that “Trudy’s daughter” was alive after all. The father wasn’t a factor at all in his mind. All he wanted to do was get to meet Molly. Yes, part of that is that it’s a piece of Trudy still in the world. But more than that he loved Trudy so unconditionally that he unhesitatingly and naturally loves the daughter she had with another man. So many people could learn a thing or two from this pure form of love Monk shows in the series finale.

For me, it’s just another beautiful piece of a beautiful show.

I’d love to see an episode with all three of the brothers together! (Must have the original actors) Adrian - Ambrose - Jack Jr. omg the hilarity that would ensue! (Admitted it would ensue in mostly one place lol)

I’d love to see an episode where one of the women (Monica Waters and Leyla Zlatavich) who genuinely cared for Monk - as he is - to come back!

A episode where Tommy - comes back and helps Monk solve a case!

Those are my top three lol what are yours?

For me I think so or kept it 😂

Well time to keep watching it on Peacock 😅

The scene (Daredevil, season 6, episode 7) where Natalie and Julie try to get Monk to confront one of fears made me howl with laughter.

"Put a ladybug on your finger" as something terrifying to Monk is a line that will live with me forever.
