Monk's Favorite Show , Monk meets the star of his favorite childhood show, and explains to her that, while he has seen the episodes only once when they originally aired thirty years earlier, he has them all memorized. He punctuates the story with "Not crazy, just a fan". Goofs When the captain is talking to Steven Billy Cooper in his office, Monk sees him and goes to the window.

He pulls on the blinds. They should have been on the inside of the office, not on the outside where a passerby or employee would be able to look in.

Don't get me wrong, it is still an interesting and entertaining episode, though one can definitely see why some would not like it, but there are a few things that seem somewhat off.

It is let down by the mystery being one of the show's most simplistic and obvious, the why the motive is pretty flimsy here for 'Monk' standards , how and especially who aspects are pretty much see-through very early on due to that there are elements of the story here that is a long way from being new.

Elizabeth Perkins does do her best and brings some charm and filth to her character, but the character herself just isn't very interesting. The most interesting ones are those that Monk pits himself off against and rub him up the wrong way rather than the ones that he is fixated in protecting which lessens the conflict to me. Was a little put off by the way Monk is written here. He is still the quirky, funny and obsessive Monk, but for somebody protecting his childhood crush he has rarely been this less serious or focused when solving a case.

Disher and Stottlemeyer are fun enough, also did appreciate that Disher's goofiness was toned down a little and Stottlemeyer was effectively downplayed while not losing his personality, but have little to do, don't remember their contributions much.

However, "Mr Monk's Favourite Show" is interesting in many ways. While it does get a little too goofy and silly in places, Shalhoub in late 60s-early 70s garb with Afro included accusing characters of murder while funny has to be seen to be believed, the portrayal of the Cooper clan with obvious and affectionately nostalgic allusions to 'The Brady Bunch' was very well done.

The interior sets and production values are very authentic and the sit-com style of photography is appropriate as are the groovy wardrobe and on-the-nose hippie jokes.

The clips from 'The Cooper Clan' are great fun. The music is both understated and quirky. While there is a preference for the theme music for Season 1, Randy Newman's "It's a Jungle Out There" has grown on me overtime, found it annoying at first but appreciate its meaning and what it's trying to say much more now.

Writing lacks the emotional moments and doesn't have enough of the obsessive quirks though they're there , but it scores highly in the comedy with some very funny lines and exchanges, even the running gag involving the contents of the auto-biography. Particularly memorable is the uproarious fantasy summation, one of the show's most imaginative.

Because without it, there would have been no laughter. Could this, perhaps, be a hidden gem I could watch for the first time??? Keep track of everything you watch; tell your friends. It's the one with the Brady Bunch style show Monk watched as a kid. Looks desperate to defend Christine Rapp before he sees what's on the page Years passed and Christine had written a tell-all book, which Monk and Natalie were waiting to purchase.

While waiting, Christine's car was bombed, and Monk was on the case and later hired as her bodyguard. Knowing that this would be her last chance to get her career back on track, Christine encountered mail carrier and obsessed fan Victor Timlinson, and manipulated him to rig the voting ballots that resulted in Christine winning the award. Monk must reconcile reality with his fan-boy feelings toward an actress who starred as a child in a Brady Bunch-style sitcom in his youth after an attempt on her life.

She later lured Victor to the motel she was staying and shot him in cold blood, falsely claiming self-defense. Christine's tell-all book prompted Victor to demand more money from her, and knowing that Victor would be relentless, the villainess bombed her own car and made it look like Victor was the culprit.
