At the end of the day, the story of Adrian Monk is the tale of a sad and pitiful man who is utterly trapped at the moment of his wife's death; too guilty to live and too scared to die.
Four years before the first episode, Adrian Monk was one of the best Detectives in the San Francisco Police Department, and he was married to the love of his life.
Being a cop and being married to Trudy were the two pillars of Monk's existence. And so when Trudy was killed by a car bomb, ...

Along with "House", Monk is one of my favourite shows now running on TV. Part of the shows humour comes from the contradictional charakters Monk (paranoia-ladden) and Captain Stottlemeyer (rash, slightly choleric, always on the verge of explosion). A lot of fun lies in the character of Adrian Monk himself: Who would bring suitcases full of his favourite bottled drinking water to a trip to Mexico? Who would ask the stewardess to show him the statistics of the airlines recent crashes or who would ask ...

The reason I bought this was that in some online reviews they likened the sense of humour in Monk to Seinfeld. I am a big fan of Seinfeld and have seen every episode so was obviously intruiged.

Fans of light-hearted detective shows will probably like Monk. It's watchable. In my opinion some of the ways in which the crimes ...

First of all I would just like to say that (at the time of writing) this DVD boxset is an absolute bargain at just under £35 with 61 episodes to enjoy at your own pace.
I first saw this when it was first aired one saturday (can't remember exactly what year it started, time goes so fast) on BBC2 just because I thought the idea of a former detective with obsessive compulsive disorder sounded interesting but I didn't expect it to be this good, from that very first screening I was hooked although ...

What can I add to the other reviews on this page? Monk has to be one of the most intelligent/funny/moving/clever shows to ever appear on tv. Here we have some of the best writing (and the witty one liners rival the likes of Frasier or Seinfeld) and one amazing actor in Tony Shalhoub!!! There really isn't another actor I can think of that could have played the character so subtly that it allows you to laugh at his problems with O.C.D ( a very serious problem for many people) but, at the same time, feel almost ...
