Monk received critical acclaim and awards throughout its run, including eight Emmy Awards, one Golden Globe Award, and two Screen Actors Guild Awards. The two-part series finale aired on November 27 and December 4, 2009. The final episode held the record for the most-watched scripted cable television drama from 2009 to 2012 (broken by The Walking Dead) with 9.4 million viewers.[1]

While Monk's personal challenges and compulsions often cause problems and frustration for both himself and those around him, his observational skills and keen attention to detail enable him to solve cases through unconventional means. His 312 phobias include germs, needles, birds, heights, dentists, milk, death, snakes, lightning, mushrooms, crowds and enclosed spaces.[5]

According to an interview with executive producer David Hoberman,[26] ABC first conceived the series as a police show with an Inspector Clouseau-like character with OCD. Hoberman said ABC wanted Michael Richards, who had starred as a private investigator in The Michael Richards Show two years earlier, for the show,[26] but Richards turned it down. Hoberman brought in Andy Breckman as creator, and Breckman, inspired by Sherlock Holmes, introduced Dr. Kroger as a Doctor Watson-like character and an Inspector Lestrade-like character who eventually became Captain Stottlemeyer.

Season five premiered Friday, July 7, 2006, at 9:00 pm Eastern time. This marked the first time change for the program, which aired at 10:00 pm during its first four seasons. The change allowed the show to work as a lead-in to a new USA Network series, Psych, another offbeat detective program. Monk followed a consistent format of airing half of its 16 episodes in midyear and the second half early the following year, with the exception of the first season, which broadcast entirely from July through October 2002, and the final season, which broadcast entirely between August and December 2009.

Previously aired episodes of Monk began airing on NBC Universal sibling network NBC April 6, 2008. NBC eyed the show because its block with Psych could be plugged into NBC's schedule intact. The shows were being used to increase the scripted programming on the network as production of its own scripted programming ramped back up following the writers' strike.[29] Ratings for the broadcast debut were well below NBC averages for the time period. The show came in third behind Big Brother 9 on CBS and Oprah's Big Give on ABC.[30]

Although set in the San Francisco Bay Area, Monk is for the most part shot elsewhere except for occasional exteriors featuring city landmarks. The pilot episode was shot in Vancouver, British Columbia, with some location shooting in San Francisco, and the subsequent season-one episodes were shot in the Toronto, Ontario, area.[31] Most of the episodes from seasons two through six were filmed in the Los Angeles area. These include the sets for Monk's apartment, the police station and Stottlemeyer's office, Dr. Kroger's office, and Natalie's house.[32]

In the later part of season four, some on-location filming was done in San Francisco. Many portions of the episode "Mr. Monk and the Big Reward" were shot on location, including a climactic chase scene where Monk and Natalie are chased by three bounty hunters.[33]

During the first season of Monk, the series used a jazzy instrumental introduction to the show by songwriter Jeff Beal, performed by guitarist Grant Geissman.[34] The theme won the 2003 Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music.[35]

Randy Newman also wrote a new song for the final episode entitled "When I'm Gone". The song was released on iTunes on December 1, 2009, and won the 2010 Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics.[39][40]

Over the years, the show was syndicated on MyNetworkTV from 2010 to 2014. Other networks include Ion Television, WE tv, Sundance TV, MeTV, WGN America, Universal HD, Heroes & Icons, IFC, Cozi TV, and Hallmark Movies and Mysteries.[41]

USA Network premiered a 10-episode online series entitled "Little Monk" on August 21, 2009. It includes Adrian and Ambrose Monk during their middle-school years, bringing a back story to Monk's detective skills and phobias.

On March 14, 2023, Tony Shalhoub confirmed on Dr. Loubna Hassanieh's Unheard Stories: Stories That Inspire podcast that a 90-minute Monk movie was produced for Andy Breckman Productions, Mandeville Television, Universal Content Productions and Peacock, with shooting expected to start in May 2023.[45] The following day, Peacock officially ordered the Monk follow-up film, titled Mr. Monk's Last Case: A Monk Movie with original cast members Shalhoub, Levine, Howard, Gray-Stanford, Hardin and Elizondo (who played Monk, Captain Stottlemeyer, Natalie, Randy, Trudy, and Dr. Bell respectively) confirmed to reprise their roles from the series with creator Andy Breckman writing the script.[2] The movie premiered on December 8, 2023.[46]

Since 2006, during the airing of season four, Lee Goldberg, a writer for the series, has produced a series of novels based on the original television series.[48] All of the novels are narrated by Natalie Teeger, Monk's second assistant. For the most part, the novels remain faithful to the television series, with slight discontinuity. On December 31, 2012, the last novel to be written by Lee Goldberg was released. After Goldberg left the series, Hy Conrad wrote four more books, ending with Mr. Monk and the New Lieutenant.[49]

In Australia, Seasons 1-5 were re-released in slimmer packaging in 2010. In 2017, all eight seasons were re-issued and distributed by Shock Entertainment (previous releases were Universal).[citation needed]

For the first attempt to determine the best season of Monk. I took the episode ratings for each season and just averaged them to arrive for the season average. When looking at the season average here is the ranking of the best Monk seasons:


According to IMDb rankings, the final episodes of Monk have some of the highest rankings of the series. Because of this, I decided to approach the data a little differently. What if I looked at what season had the most episodes above the average episode rating. This would show which season of Monk has, on average, a better number of episodes. 


I was curious to see how the average episode ranking compared between Sharona and Natalie. Sharona appeared in 36 episodes (not including an appearance in season 8). Natalie appeared in 89 episodes.


After trying to solve the Sharona vs. Natalie debate, I decided I would look at some of the other recurring characters to see how their episodes were rated. At first, I looked at Dr. Kroger and Julie Teeger. Both of their ratings were average, 8.12 and 8.11, respectively. Dr. Kroger appeared in 46 episodes, and Julie appeared in 25 episodes. 


If not Priest, how else? E.g., above, I mention Warrior. Would a Brawler Stance be a better single-point injection, allowing certain skill use while unarmed? I am also interested in ideas of how a truly unarmed melee archetype could come into Classic and make sense.

[Power Word: Discipline]

When no item is equipped in either weapon slot and [Inner Fire] is active, attack speed is increased by 80%, Spirit grants bonus Unarmed skill, and Unarmed damage increased by weapon skill. You can no longer change weapons in combat.

[Resonance of the Divine]

[Holy Fire] is instant cast with an 8 second cooldown. When the Priest hits an affected enemy with a melee attack or Smite, [Inner Fire] spends a stack to radiate healing to allies within 20 yards. Critical healing from this effect may trigger [Inspiration] if talented.

[Radiant Nova]

Casting Holy Fire grants Power Word: Wrath, greatly increasing the damage of your next Holy Nova. Casting Prayer of Healing grants Power Word: Mercy, greatly increasing the healing of your next Holy Nova. These buffs overwrite each other.

Personally i dont think melee priest should be a healer. Its Season of Discovery why not try its as a dps that uses holy spells to debuff opponents while buffing its own attacks. I also think 80% attack spped is a bit high on a skill. Could give them a conal holy attack that increases based on spirit.

Fair point on dual wielding, i was thinking that it got the same attack speed as dual wield since no weapon involvement. And i just see a chanting monk cause powerful words to debuff enemies and strengthen allies like a saint mixed with a brawler lol

Buffing classes are so difficult to balance but extremely rewarding when done well. I think of Shaman from EverQuest as the epitome when it comes to that. I feel the psychic aspects of Shadow (debuffing) and Discipline (buffing) are good crowbars for injecting those features, if possible.

Monk is an American comedy-drama detective mystery television series. It was written for TV by Andy Breckman. It stars Tony Shalhoub. The show was on the air from July 2002 to December 2009. The last episode before the series was cancelled was one of the most-watched in cable television history.[1] Other actors in the show were Bitty Schram, Jason Gray-Stanford, Ted Levine and Traylor Howard.

Adrian Monk (Tony Shalhoub) had been a good detective for the San Francisco police department. After his wife Trudy was killed by a car bomb, Monk had a nervous breakdown. He was too upset and afraid to work. He was then let go by the police department.

After that he stayed inside his house for many years. He finally began to go outside his house; but only with the help of his nurse, Sharona Fleming (Bitty Schram). He could only go places when she went with him to protect him from his fears. This let him do some work as a private detective. He still has a severe case of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Sometimes, the obsessive-compulsive disorder helps him figure out the answers to clues in cases. He has a great memory for details. Since he was a child, Monk has been able to notice small things that others miss. 152ee80cbc
