It's All About The Monk

Remember when TV was reality free (except for the news and well made documentaries)? Man, was that good times. No "Who's Your Daddy?", "The Ashlee Simpson Show" or "The Surreal Life".

It's never been easier for TV executives to make money. Take 15-minute famers, make them compete for a $50K price, throw in some drugs, liquor and nudity. Voila - you got yourself a hit show!

Then there is The Monk. Finally back to an intelligent, funny and very entertaining TV show. Monk is a character with a lot of issues but a brilliant problem solver and analyst. He puts things in perspective and at the same time makes you feel good about your petty problems.
