Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The show's writers occasionally satirize Monk's near-perfect memory. For example, in "Mr. Monk Goes Back to School" he can't remember if a crime scene on a roof is his 4th or 5th worst nightmare, since he "didn't bring the list". more
Goofs:
Continuity: In Mr. Monk and the Red Herring (21 January 2005) Natalie Teeger says that Julie is 11 year old. In Mr. Monk and the Critic (18 September 2009) Julie Teeger is accepted to college, so she aged 7 years in only 4 years. more

Best New Show, 3 December 2002
Author: Jim Menke from Buffalo, NY

It isn't often that a series on a cable network turns out to be the best new show of the season, but that is just what happened with "Monk". It is off beat, delightfully acted and very humorously written. Monk, himself, is outrageous and unpredictable. The viewer never knows what Monk will find to obsess over. However he is as observant or even more so than Sherlock Holmes. Tony Shaloub is really great in bringing this difficult character to life. The whole cast is exactly right. It is no wonder that ABC picked up this show to repeat the original episodes on broadcast TV.
