Monk enters childhood TV favourite to solve murder.
In cutest episode, Mr Monk and the Foreign Man, the couple are kidnapped. When Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje asks Monk if he can reach into his trouser pocket, there's a lovely long moment of nothing - deadpan hilarious:
Guests include Eric Stonestreet, various Sopranos alumni, Jay Mohr, Dylan Baker (horrible critic), Meat Loaf, Virginia Madsen, John Carroll Lynch, Bitty Schram (the original Sharona), a dog, Brooke Adams again and Craig T Nelson.
Also loved the 'Michaelangelo' of the rest room, played by Bernie Kopell.
Great chase in finale through the comfortable looking seats of Union Station and into railroad rather atones for clumsily handled action scenes in previous series. Also, show seems to have showed increasing incidents of writers being unable to finish scenes properly and just cutting to the next one.
