"Monk" is a comedy-drama, with the emphasis on comedy, which tells of a San Francisco detective-savant with Sherlock Holmesian abilities and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The result is a peculiar sort of super cop who has to have a babe sidekick/babysitter to help him make it through the day. "Monk" is a lukewarm sitcom quality watch which is entertaining but something which probably will not pass the test of time in the dog-eat-dog world of television. Worth a look if the premise sound interesting but not all "that". (B-)
