@@harringt100 that(character) guy was annoying is he always like that , lack of commonsense and sympathy ( well he is a good actor when he does his role and the viewers get annoyed)
@@harringt100 You know, I love the characters of Monk and Kevin Dorfman, but you are quite right, the poor lady's plight absolutely demonstrates the fact that we would really have our patience tested if we knew either one of these guys. XD
Have you just never seen the show or were you a kid when it was on the air and the jokes went over your head? Anyway, I hope you continue to enjoy Monk. It really was a great show. 🙂
In case anyone's curious, here's what happened. The dog next door was secretly trained to run to his house and turn on the fireplace has in response to the radio guy saying a specific word. On the radio show, he said that word, making sure the dog would be hearing the radio at the time. The shoe was missing because the dog took it.
It's unique that Monk's ADHD / OCD is what makes him can notice the odd things normal people find ordinary, which usually leads him to finding clues for the case.
For some athlete and scientist adhd can be the reason of them training or making models over and over again until everything is perfect. Not a good motivator, but for some peoplenit could be a motivator for something.
@@randomfullywonderful yeah OCD is probably most likely.. They have almost the same common signs.. In sense that in some major cases the person is unable to respond normally according to social norms because their mind is focused somewhere else.. And they have a need to do things or some things according to a specific order / rule..
I love this episode because it shows Monk being annoyed by someone arguably more annoying than him. Though he definitely should've become a recurring character/sidekick to monk
That was not why. His point in the show, his purpose, was to show that despite characters around Monk being flawed (like him, or not like him...) they still formed a fabric of his reality that meant something positive to him, even if he did not find them the nicest of people to be around. That is why when he (SPOILERS SPOILER SPOILERS) died, Monk was actually incredibly sad.
I so enjoyed that irratating character. He did win the lottery and the next day the most beautiful girl he's seen meets and falls in love with him! Man, can you believe his luck?
Checks the calendar. Such a minor clue. No matches died in a fire. Like the time the woman died from an overdose of pills. Monk knew it was murder. The woman was found without a bottle of water or even a cup! Brilliant observation Mr. Monk!
When I first realized I was OCD it terrified me. If I was at somebody else's house and we were planning on watching a movie or listening to some music I would pull my shoes off and touch each shoe before I pulled my socks off and put the socks in the shoes and touch each sock and it felt like I had to do that or something bad was going to happen and when people would see me doing that it terrified me I thought that they would think that I was a freak or unstable or weird in some way or deranged because in my mind that wasn't normal and I'm sure it didn't seem normal to them either. We tend to laugh at this disease but it is not a laughing matter for a majority of the people that have it..... in reality it's a scary thing.
If I was watching a movie with someone and they did something like that, I wouldn't mind at all :) I'd rather be around someone who tics than someone who shames people for their tics! Hope we all find ways to cope with our stuff
I felt a similar way through my life. I don't think I have OCD, but I do have autism and have tics like that. The main one I have is I need my body to have a "symmetrical feeling." For example, if I accidentally burn myself on some hot water or something, I will be extremely tempted to burn my other hand so they're even. Most of the time I can stop myself from doing it if it causes me pain, but if its something like scratching an itch on one side of my body I'll just follow it. Sometimes if I get hurt on one side, slapping the other side will be enough to make it seem even ish. It doesn't make any sense but, honestly very few tics do.
@@TheVardener Thats so wild, I have ADHD and I used to do that exact same thing! It wasnt like I was forced to make it symetrical, but I couldnt take my mind off of it until it was. This is actually the first time I've ever heard of anyone doing the same thing. Its really crazy how there's so much crossover between different types of neurodivergent disorders.
Funniest thing is that the missing shoe was key in discovering foul play and proving it. Seems like another Monk Idiosyncracy, but it was an important detail.
Thinking of it, I would've loved seeing a Monk Psych crossover. They're both very observant, though I think Monk wouldve figure out Shaun wasn't really psychic and possibly a little annoying. He might get along with Gus, though 🤣

@@saikotropos7088 It went over mine. I was thinking, "Huh?" and waited for some new animal to be shown or something. Then he made the gesture, and it finally struck me.
They _weren't_ getting divorced, that's the point. She said to get divorced would cost him 30 million. So he killed his wife instead of initiating a divorce.

@@maxwelgearbox1940...because he wanted to get rid of his wife? If they were divorcing, she would have said "is costing" not "would cost." Or even "will cost." The way she said it makes it hypothetical.
It has to be lit by a spark. The stove only lights if you want it to. It wouldn’t make sense if when you turned the stove to high it kept trying to light it
It's interesting how Hollywood depends on benevolent sexism to be able to do lazy writing. They just criminally trespassed his home, with the help of his wife's sister.
It wasn't criminal trespass. She had a key that she'd gotten from her sister, and though her sister is deceased; as far as we know her welcome to use the key had not been revoked by the "'grieving" widower. It doesn't have to be her house. There just needed to have an understanding of welcome, the possession of key bestowed by one of the owners, and a lack of rescinding the welcome.
I’m not sure exactly what your point is, but House MD has (actual) criminal trespassing instigated and carried out by men, pretty sure Sherlock does too and I’m sure there are more examples. This sort of thing is accepted by viewers not because of any kind of sexism but because they are the heroes/main characters and we all want them to be able to solve the case. I actually prefer it when lead characters do questionable or illegal things some of the time - especially if it doesn’t always work out - because it’s more interesting and engaging that way.
"If you could wait until my assistant gets here. She's in charge of saying the right things" 🤣🤣 I love Monk
He’s at least aware of how tactless he is, much better than Sheldon.😂🤣
"99 point 9"
"Ahhh, so close"
The little details are great in this show! 🤣
I got the 1000th like for this, so I understand Monk's need for that. :D

@@toasterchild6191 Let's just say we have a contradictory approach to the subject and leave it at that. I have the same with my sister.
This episode was my favorite ending. Monk: "You're not laughing now...are... you" Killer: "No I'm not" Monk: "Join the club".
Then, you should have seen the RUclips roundtable discussion inside a prison cellblock. Dwight Schrute and Angela Martin from The Office, etc....

It's hilarious that there's someone SO similar to Monk but JUST different enough to drive him crazy.
There are a few people like that who pop up from time to time.

Monk was an incredible show. Great writing, Tony Shaloub, and a great supporting cast. It was a golden age for shows on USA network.
I’m on the Internet?’. Monk doesn’t know what the Internet, is.
The missing shoe is an important clue to this case. Love this show! 😀
I feel like I've been left hanging on the casserole dish story.
I had no idea this show had such hilarious jokes.
Nice cat.
Killed me... that was savage
Tony Shalhoub's acting really made it. Passing his hand over his head is what broke me.
Have you just never seen the show or were you a kid when it was on the air and the jokes went over your head? Anyway, I hope you continue to enjoy Monk. It really was a great show. 🙂

They genuinely made me sad when they killed Kevin.
Internet gets you everytime. Ask Ron Swanson.
0:41 that line hurts since he died in the magician episode
That was so sad! I was blown away; I never expected Kevin to die.
@@Aileil Same here. Kevin was insensitive and self-preoccupied, but there was no malice in him. He always meant well. It was so sad when he died.
the only thing that would have made the reveal more satisfying was if he'd done it live on the radio show.
I watched the episode fully and I greatly enjoyed it.
especially the part where culprit was caught.
"99, 9"
"Aaah so close"
I feel you Mr. Monk
Always look at spouse or immediate relatives first, then other individuals as suspects ! Good job Monk !
Nice cat, Monk says about the dog. Indeed Shalhoub has a Retriever, Shelby called.
That's the best news I've heard all day🤣🤣🤣
It’s a good thing the tissues were two-ply or else Linda wouldn’t have gotten another one.😆
You think Monk would ever buy single-ply tissues?
@@BKPrice Probably not.😅
Silly Monk, you have to mix the spoons with the other cutlery. That prevents the spoons from, well, spooning and no water getting in between them.
I love this episode because it shows Monk being annoyed by someone arguably more annoying than him. Though he definitely should've become a recurring character/sidekick to monk
Funny thing is he definitely could've been a relative, or in an alternate universe Monk's illegitimate son
Kevin was so annoying the show writer decide to kill him later seasons
*"THAT'S A NICE CAT" .... "WOOSH"*
I wonder if there is a criminology class somewhere which shows Monk episodes as an example of looking for clues ;)
5:35
The missing shoe is connected directly to the murder.
The tissue hahaha
Love Kevin!! Would love to have seen him in a few more episodes! Such a perfect added character!!🥰
I prefer the serving spoons in the front... While a woman ist crying. Always make priorities 🤣
Monk making jokes ahead of his time
"What's he like?" .... someone more clueless than Monk. lol
There's a word for that.
This episode shows that not all famous actors r nice people
do you know how annoying ya gotta be to make a person suffering from OCD to say they dont care about how something is done?
All hail the great Shalhoub
4:15 Anybody ever notice the guy with the dog walked the same area twice?
My theory is that Kevin was put on the show to make Monk seem way less annoying.
That was not why. His point in the show, his purpose, was to show that despite characters around Monk being flawed (like him, or not like him...) they still formed a fabric of his reality that meant something positive to him, even if he did not find them the nicest of people to be around.

A Sherlock Holmes with a laundry list of phobias and idiosyncrasies.
