I loved him in a number of films as a serious actor. Then I saw him in Men In Black as jeebs and thought to myself that he was pretty good in a comedic role as well.
I missed monk when it first started and I hate starting a series when I miss out on the first episodes so I kept on waiting for replays but I could never tune in on time.
So I waited till the 1st season came out on dvd and figured what the hell. I must have watched that first season 3 times over by now, the show is amazing. It's funny, it's got drama, it's got great story lines every episode, the writing is top notch and the whole basis for the show is brilliant.
You have one of the most brilliant if not the most brilliant detective ever, he sees things no one else notices yet he can't do what he loves doing because the police force won't have him due to the fact he has an intense fear of basically everything from germs to heights and is a major OCD nut.
The main problem that Monk suffers is that of The Shield, they are on shitty networks. Shield is on FX and Monk is on USA. They don't have the exposure of other major shows, if they did, they would be on everyones top 10 lists for sure.
Season 4 of monk starts Friday Jan 21st I beleieve, they had a 24 hour monk marathon on new years day. I caught most of season 3 and season 2 is coming out on dvd next week.
Monk is actually the reason I started this discussion with my friends and this poll here. I was watching Monk with them and they had never seen it but naturally everyone loved the show.
