    I love this show! I've seen all of season 1 & 2 and the actor Tony Shalhoub is great as the phobic Monk.

    David Carradine? That's Kung Fu and Kung Fu: The Legend Continues. His son Peter Cain in the show is a police detective though...

    Monk is a new show, started last year I believe. It's about an ex police detective who solves homicides. The twist is he has OCD and various other phobias and can't get over the unsolved murder of his wife. It's been 8 years after the fact, and Adrien Monk is still trying to solve the case, and you know what? He will!

    What else has Tony been in? right now all I can think of is the alien who sold weapons in MIB and II who would get his head shot off.. anything else?

    wow he was in a lot of stuff: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001724/


    the last episode of Monk was really cute! when he went on a date and made the lady walk up with him to the 52nd floor to the rooftop restaurant! but then.. on the way down when he's in the elveator and sees the 800 pund weight limit and checks the overweight woman with him.. that was a bit mean of him.. lol.

    oh! and the time he was going through why and how this one man killed his wife and the ambassador and bodyguards, then he just blurted out 'you disgust me! you..!' because he found the subway urinator and wanted to arrest him instead.. lol.

    and the last season when he ran in the burning house to save his brother, how he paused while running in to fix a crooked book on the pile..

    then the monkey! that one! he called his psychiatrist.. who came over.. lol...

    sigh.. good times!

    So I have been missing alot. I watched this show when it first aired. For some reason I stopped watching TV this year. Now, I am back at it. Playing catch up stinks.

    Monk is an entertaining show. ^_^ I love the character of Monk, because he's so quirky and unusual. <3 Tony Shalhoub is amazing. ^^; (Granted, I've only seen bits and pieces of one or two episodes... but they were really cute (and cool, too) scenes! ^^)

    I love in the monkey episode when Monk gets 'locked' in the safe room. And when Stottlemyer(or however it's spelled) puts on the shriners hat and the cymbals...yay.

    roflmao LOL. because it was a loaded gun and they were all screaming and he was trying to piss the monkey off LOL. but the next Monk will be so funny. see the commercials? Sherona needs a vacation. ABOUT TIME! that new lady from the temp agency is crazy. hah ha. but.. who would want Sherona's job? It takes a lot of patience.. and wipes.


    OH! almost forgot, my bro was taping The 4400 Sunday night on USA, and there was this HILARIOUS commercial between Adrien Monk and Johnny Smith!(Monk vs. Deadzone) Adrien kept asking Johnny if he really had to touch the guys to get any psychic reading off of them and if Johnny could just jab them with a finger and/or hover around them instead. Johnny himself got FREAKED OUT and left. ROFLMAO it was classic.

    Heh, I was in a car on my way back from Boston when the 4400 was on....too bad for me.

    Anyways, the lady playing the new nurse is also on Reno 911!. Which is a funny show. So...I'm looking forward to it!

    What did you think of that episode? the English teacher Anya from Buffy really took the vengeance demon a bit too far. But, the character she played was really stupid! My friend really thought Sherona was hallucinating lol. I would have gone up to the guy and stabbed him some more since he was in pain, ne? put him out of his misery. LOL.
