This show is great. Monk is a good influence, and its one of the only murder shows that is appropriate for preteens. My brother is 10, and he has no problem with this show. I love it.
Monk is a great show. My whole family has OCD to a certain extent, which makes it much more entertaining. The only real problem is the language and the violence, and many of the murders are related to extra-marital affairs. Watching it frequently gave us a bad feeling so we stopped watching it, but now Clearplay is releasing filters for Monk. We can now watch it again in peace.
The only bad thing is that they stopped it!!! It's a great show. It's funny how mr.monk is scared of most things, including milk and ladybugs. It's best in the early seasons that had Sherona. A great show that's clean except for violence. See if you can find it because it's great!
Although I find myself cover my eyes as the victims are murdered, it isn't only about that. It is also about Mr. Monk and his trials and tributes as a lonely mega-phobe. His wife was murdered and he takes it upon himself to figure out who did it until his last breath. The writers are absolute geniuses. You would have to be extremely smart in order to write these crime shows with clever solutions. I absolutely adore this show!!
I LOVE this T.V. show! It has a great combination of comedy and suspense. I love this series, but sadly it starts deteriorating in the quality on the 7th season, but its still watchable. I started watching at age 9, and I loved it. I still do.
Monk is a funny murder show. There are some brief glimpses of bloody bodies and there is a murder every show. There are intense scenes like in "Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever" where in the beginning there is a woman screaming for help and running from her murderer. This is a pretty tame murder show meant for the family.
Monk is one of the best shows out there. It is very smart and sophisticated, but isn't afraid to be silly every now and then. The characters are usually very good at not swearing, and sexual references are few and far between. Two enthusiastic thumbs way up.
Monk is the greatest show in the history of TV. There are some bloody murders in some episodes (e.g. man falls into trash compactor), but it is mostly minor blood. It's funny and awesome and there are always great mysteries. I always try to guess them before Monk solves them! Too bad it's off the air. But watch and record reruns and buy seasons on DVD! A great show to watch with the whole family!
Very good show
And when i say "noticable product placement" i mean to say they have some products like his "Clorox" wipes and some "Lysol" but over all product placement is not that much of a problem.
And when i say bad language i mean that there is the occasionable curse word.
And when i say "Too violent" i mean there is a murder in almost every episode (except one).
But all things considering it is a very good show
and is ON for eleven and up.
This is a class example of A great TV show. Monk is a detective that has been having problems since his wife, Trudy died in a car bomb accident. As he searches for the murderer of his wife, he solves murders in a genius (and witty) way. It's impossible to watch Monk blunder around and not laugh. But, with the comedy is also the kind of 'Columbo' sophistication and at times a depressing atmosphere as he remembers his wife. One of the truly great modern TV shows, and I definatly recommend it to all teens and adults.
It is my favorite show - very funny and my sister and I love guessing who committed the crimes and how. The writers are very talented and witty. Monk is my favorite crime-type tv show, and one of the only ones I'm allowed to watch-it is not too violent, and all the humor makes it very light. There really isn't that much innuendo, an dmost of the violence is in the opening scene. Five stars, all the way!
One of my favorite shows! The only thing is it shows violent murders and a lot of them are related to affairs. There are some mentions of sexual behavior. But overall it is so funny and you can always fast forward.<3 =) <3
monk is awesome and most of the dead body scenes are totally fake. plus monk is a great role model, he has a disorder and is the best detective in the country.
