Movie Reviews of Monk - Season One
Movie Review: Mystery with a Stroke of genius literally
Summary: 5 Stars
I am a devoted fan. Monk is a good example of those with weaknesses emphasizing their strengths. This is a great show and I have bought several copies to pass to friends and family. You gotta love the characters. Monk- OCD but great master of detection. Sharona- divorced single mother with sense and helpful sidekick. Captain - with eccentric wife and loyal friend. The detective- bring a love-hate comedy relationship with Sharona.
I sure hope rumors of the actress who plays Sharona isn't true she is an asset. Well at least I have these and many more episodes to watch.
Movie Review: The Best ThIng Ever!!!

If you like mysteries and comedys at the same time then you have to check out Monk. It's about a detective who can solve cases that even the police can't. His wife gets murdered in by a car bomb and he gets absessive compulsive disorder. Now he fears germs and all kind of things. He eventually gets fired for his fears and now is a private consultant who has a nurse who takes care of him as a partner. The police always call on him when they are in a jam. But will his fears get in the way of being reinstated? Come on solve a mystery and die laughing. Whats better than that?Movie Review: Magical !
Summary: 5 Stars
This series has brought me back to episodic television. No computers solving all the cases, no women swooning over the leading man. On the contrary, we have a lovable but not likable guy that seems crippled by fear of everything. We have detection being done by a detective, what a concept. I like these early episodes that show Sharona having to get Monk to focus on the case, not his other obsessions, which are many. This is old fashioned, but entertaining. I appreciate the way the dics are set up and you can choose to watch all episodes continually, or pick a selection.Movie Review: We Love Tony Shalhoub
Summary: 5 Stars
Monk is great! This season one disc set is 4 DVDs, with a total of 12 episodes (that's 3 per disc). The last disc contains a few special features, which I haven't watched yet - Mr. Monk and His Origins, Mr. Monk and His O.C.D., Mr. Monk and His Fellow Sufferers, Mr. Monk and His Emmy Award-Winning Performance, and Mr. Monk and His Partners in Crime. I loved Mr. Shalhoub is Wings, and Monk does not disappoint! I think there's alittle O.C.D. in all of us (some more than others ~cough~ lol). I can't wait to get my gf the rest of the seasons, so I can watch 'em too!Movie Review: refreshingly original
Summary: 5 Stars
"Monk" is the first American detective/crime series in years that I have enjoyed - comedic or otherwise. Shows like "CSI" and other slick, new crime productions fall flat compared to their British counterparts, with too much shoot-em-up violence, lame dialogue and all the lead actors looking like they stepped out of a Calvin Klein ad.
The fact that "Monk" is comedy-based doesn't at all retract from it's being a valid detective show. It works on all levels. Both Tony Salhoub and Bitty Schram do fabulous jobs. A real must-see.
