Does anyone else still watch Monk? He is probably the most entertaining detective I've seen on TV for a while. He is the only one I know who washes their toothbrush in boiling water, and I feel I can really relate to him. If you haven't watched him, I recommend watching the one about the game show and Mr Monk takes his Medicine.
Is there anyone else here who still watches him?

I do. I have all the dvds and was watching "Monk" almost every day. I love "Mr. Monk and his other brother", "Mr. Monk gets drunk" and, "Mr. Monk goes to group therapy". I probably love most of the episodes. "Monk is on right now on WGN".

Oh gosh yes :) I love that show. The best episode to me was the one where Trudy came to him in his sleep and sat on his bed. So, so sad. I love his sessions with his therapists.

I love that show too. I wash my toothbrush in boiling water and I change it every week. I have a bit of a fear of germs, but I"m not as bad as Monk.

I Love the episode when Monk thinks he's an amazing artist. When he tries to pay his therapist with a "sketch" I can't help but laugh.

The one where he loses his job as a detective and goes to a magazine to apply as a fact checker. The editor of the magazine looks at his pages of corrections and asks "how many issues did you go through?" Monk replies "one". I love that episode.

I love Monk. It's a great show. I like it how he sets store by such little things. I also do some of the things he does, but not because he does them, but because I've just simply always done it.
