Synopsis
TV Series (2002-2009). 8 seasons. 125 episodes. Detective Adrian Monk used to have a minor case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Then, the murder of his wife and his inability to solve the case exacerbated his condition to the point where he finds it impossible to function in society without assistance. He hires Sharona Fleming, a nurse and single mother, as his personal assistant, as well as his Watson for when he investigates cases the police cant' solve to pay the bills. After three seasons Sharona got tired of the frustrating job and remarried her husband. Monk's new assistant is Natalie Teeger, whose loss of her own partner allows her a deeper bond with him than Sharona could ever have.

Critics' reviews
  • "It is so clever, that it makes you remember how good TV used to be"
  • "Despite very likable characters, deft acting and the psychological twist, the rest of Monk appears to be pretty standard issue"
  • "One of the most imaginative crime dramas on television"
  • The script is a little too silly and lighthearted for its own good, undermining its cleverness with absurd plot twists.
  • "Monk is a delight, a show that should be added to everyone's can't-miss list."
