One of my favorite's Mr. Monk Gets Cabin Fever. I laughed so hard when Stottlemeyer screamed and fell off the bed cause Monk tied his foot to it.  |

Yeah, I like it a lot, although I preferred Sharona to the new female lead.
Monk/USA Network has the strangest "seasons". Oh, well. I guess this means that new episodes of Monk won't be up against new episodes of Numb3rs. Figures that I like very few new shows, and two of the ones I like are on at the same time (Friday at 10:00 PM Eastern Time). |

Natalie and Sharona are the same to me. Did you see the one with Monks brother in it? The part about the labled cups was funny.
Stotllemeyer: Sir we'd like permission to search your pie.
Bad Guy: What?
Stotllemeyer: Don't make me say it again. |

| According to the Monk Web site, Monk's brother Ambrose should be back this season. Should be very good. |

I love Monk! I have the first two seasons on DVD, I watched them so much that my roommate joked that if they were VHS tapes they'd be worn out by now. Unfortunately, I missed some of the new episodes this season because we didn't have TV at school. Does anyone know where I can download them?
I also preferred Sharona over Natalie, she had a lot more spunk and character. Natalie feels like a watered-down Sharona to me.
I love Adrian's brother Ambrose, too. "Mr. Monk and the Three Pies" is my favorite episode.

| I didn't like the reason Sharona left. She hated her ex husband. And I rented Mr. Monk Goes to the Carnival, Mr. Monk and the Asylum and Mr. Monk and the Billionare Mugger on a dvd. I liked the asylum one but the carnival one was boring. And I didn't get the mugger one. If you go to tv.com they have episode summarys of Monk. |

According to the Monk Web site, Season 3 will be out on DVD on July 5th. There's a Monk marathon on July 4th, as well.
I don't know if it's that I prefer the character of Sharona to Natalie, or just that I preferred Bitty Schram to Traylor Howard. Something about Traylor Howard doesn't seem to be up to Monk standards for me. It might be her voice. Still, I'll continue to watch the show. 
I agree that the reason Sharona left is lame. There was an episode where the ex husband tried to get back together with her, and it turned out the reason was so that he could impress a rich uncle, or something like that. What a creep. |

I prefer Sharona and Bitty. (hehe, I love that name.) Natalie's pretty good, but the show is still missing the spunk and quirkiness that Sharona brought to the table. And I'm not a big fan of Traylor Howard as an actress. I saw her in "Dirty Work", and I wasn't very impressed.

| Some of the episodes are very funny, though I'd appreciate it if my partner didn't keep telling me to 'suck it up' when he thinks I'm being inconsiderate or stubborn! |

I love the episode where they think the chimpanzee killed the record producer! I was on rolling on the floor laughing when Stottlemeyer was interrogating Darwin!!!!

| I actually like this show because the cases can be goofy and still serious. |
