Monk e Drama

About The Show

Show Time : Fridays, 9:00 PM

A detective who is afraid of the dark…and heights…and germs!

Believe it or not. His name is Adrian Monk. And he is here.

Adrian Monk was once a rising star with the San Francisco Police Department, legendary for using unconventional means to solve the department’s most baffling cases. But after the tragic (and still unsolved) murder of his wife, the devastated Monk became obsessive-compulsive. His psychological disorder has caused him to develop an abnormal fear of virtually everything: germs, heights, crowds… even milk. His condition eventually cost him his job, and continues to pose unique challenges in his daily life.

Monk’s personal nurse, Sharona Fleming is there to help Monk make it through the day, offering her assistance when even the simplest of tasks (like organizing his sock drawer) become an angst-ridden ordeal for Monk. Along the way, she also becomes Monk’s own “Girl Friday,” an unlikely Dr Watson to his Sherlock Holmes.

Now working as a private consultant, Monk continues to investigate cases in the most unconventional ways. Although Monk is no longer a member of the police force, his former boss, Captain Leland Stottlemeyer still often calls upon him to provide unique insights into cases that have the cops stumped.

Monk is a detective afraid of the dark, a gumshoe afraid of gum. He has no problem cracking a case - as long as it doesn’t involve heights or germs, and is in close proximity to his apartment. He’d like nothing more than to gain back his position on the San Francisco police force, but can he pull himself together and get back to solving crimes full time?
