Monk review

It's A Jungle Out There...Bring Your Wipes!

"Monk" is pretty cool...not least because Adrian Monk himself is so crazy. He has a basically unbeatable ability to solve crimes, but he also has so many phobias and quirks that he can manage to get himself into almost as much trouble as he solves...or at least it seems like that, sometimes. ;)

(Basically, he's a neat freak, an organization freak, and a bit of a paranoid, in general. And we love him. :P )

Monk is very clearly the main character, but the supporting characters are also very likeable and pretty real too. So, it's a good show.

~~ Best Episode Ever: "Mr. Monk And The Garbage Strike"

{'Mr. Monk, you're now sitting in the cleanest room in the world.'}

.....

"I love my work; is that a crime?"

.....

And it's sorta the one to end it all, you know.... I mean, it is a little bit like "The Big Bang Theory", (and the people who use Jim Parsons as the symbol of the geek shop are missing the point, IMO), and that's actually why "Monk" is the better show, I think, (with apologies to TBS, which I love), because nobody would use Tony Shalhoub as the symbolic center of anything.

I mean, it's funny, in a way, that it's on "Cloo", because if you took the show seriously, you might stop watching cop shows.

'8 Simple Rules', you know.

'Very funny'.

"Who cares, one day you and your father will both be dead, but that plaque by the soda machine is *forever*!"

Days without incident. ;)

.... It's just that alot of the guest characters on this show had a bit of a mean streak, you know?
