"there was a bomb"

I just finished rewatching the finale and I think it is one of the best ever! The way they tie everything up so perfectly is satisfying and heartwarming! I also love the callback to the pilot (the stove being on). Just a perfect ending to a perfect show!

Hopefully this doesn't break any rules, but I thought the sub would appreciate the cake me and my brothers had made for our mother. It's her favourite show and she's actually the one who got me into Monk, funnily enough lol

As you can see, Mr. Monk noticed a smudge on one of the corners and just had to clean it up, much to the dismay of Natalie

There are some episodes that are consistently in the top favorites (garbage strike, three pies, the kid) but what is an episode that you think deserves more love?

Hey everyone, have you noticed any inconsistencies in the series that you would like to share? Or anything that's wildly implausible?

I'm always baffled how Monk hates to touch anything and is obsessed with hygiene but yet he wears shoes on his couch and touches the sides with his soles. Or how he doesn't need a tissue for when he touches every bollard on his path.

Have you noticed more of these?

I’ve gotten like 2 1/2 to 3 seasons into this show but i havent watched it in a long time so im restarting since i basically remember nothing. Im on the first episode again and so far what confuses me is that Leland kept explaining away Monks reasonings for things. Like when Monk called him out for him and his wife having problems and he said “how did you know that” and Monk listed reasons why he knew that and Leland looked confused. Or like when he didnt believe Monk when he said the suspect is over 6’3 tall and that there were no skid marks on the road so that meant the car crash was not an accident. But if Leland was Monks watch commander back when Monk was still on the force, then shouldn’t he have known Monk just knew things and shouldn’t even question it or be confused at this point? Because im so confused by this, i thought maybe somehow after his wife’s accident he fell into his mental illness then thats what caused him to be Sherlock-like although i know thats stupid reasoning. Is there some kind of explaination to this or is it just a “its a new show and we need a way to show what he does is amazing and people just cant believe how right he is all the time” type thing. Thanks in advance.

I know Leland does a lot of paperwork, but realistically would he have been out of the office that much? Thank you,

My lovely partner tragically died in June, at 27 yo 💔 (I'm 27 too)

I wanted a tattoo that said "Le pain" (The bread in french) and "Le beurre" (The butter in french) on my wrists for years, but when they died, i've wanted to do it in a form of tribute 💔

Since they're dead, I'm devastated, the symptoms of my autism and other problems are worse, same for my OCD, soooo it seemed logical to me, to do it in reference to Monk, and Andrea, my partner.

(Sorry for my English, I'm french and i have some difficulties with expression 🥲)

girlfriend and i say it’s a family heirloom around the house all the time 😂😂

Hello !
Je revisionnais l'épisode « M. Monk et les trois Julies » (S6E13). Je trouve que la version française est vraiment solide dans cette série.

En version originale, Randy bafouille pour se rattraper devant le regard noir de Monk :
"crazier than yo—... Hugh. Grant, the actor."
Comme le jeu de mots "You / Hugh" est impossible à traduire, la VF l'a remplacé par "vous / wou, l'équipe de doublage a très bien adapté la réplique de Randy en utilisant Woody Allen à la place de Hugh Grant :
« ...il est encore plus fou que vous... wou... Woody Allen ! »
Je sais qu'il y a d'autres anecdotes de ce genre mais j'en oublie.
Est-ce que quelqu'un en a une en tête ?

The first episode that introduces Natalie shows that she is on birth control so she is clearly dating and having sex but we don’t see many of her dates and none of them really end up being part of the show. I feel like that would have been a good plot device

Any other fans out there with OCD? I have a different type than Monk, but I find it comforting to watch the show 💖
