Editorial Review:
Product Description: HE'S INGENIOUS, HE'S PHOBIC, HE'S OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE. MONK'S HILARIOUS OFFBEAT ANTICS HAVE MADE HIM UNFIT FOR DUTY BUT HE'S BACK AS A POLICE CONSULTANT TO HELP OUT ON THEIR MOST BAFFLING CASES. THE BRILLIANT BUT NEUROTIC MONK IS NOW FIGHTING CRIME AS WELL AS HIS ABNORMAL FEARS.
Amazon.com: Monk: Season Two finds the popular cable dramedy all the more satisfying and fun in its second year. Relationships between the series' core characters have (against all odds) actually deepened and sweetened, while the new whodunit storylines challenge obsessive-compulsive investigator hero Adrian Monk (Tony Shalhoub) in fresh and novel ways. There are no big changes, but there is more compassion, even friendship, exchanged between Monk and his former boss, Captain Leland Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine), and grudging admiration for the difficult private sleuth from Stottlemeyer's second-in-command, Lieutenant Disher (Jason Gray-Stanford). As for Monk's crucial bond with his long-suffering assistant, Sharona (Bitty Schram), well, nothing comes easier than before. On the other hand, Sharona continues to draw Monk out of his self-obsession by giving him someone to care about.
Highlights include the strong season opener, "Mr. Monk Goes Back to School," starring Andrew McCarthy as a science teacher whom Monk instantly suspects of killing a colleague. (The latter's death was disguised as a suicide.) Monk's investigation leads him to take, with many pitfalls and funny moments, a post at the school as a substitute teacher. But the episode also demonstrates the series' increasing preference for mysteries that concern how a crime was committed rather than who did it. Also good is "Mr. Monk Goes to Mexico," in which Monk finds himself in a panic without bottled water while working alongside two south-of-the-border equivalents (in looks and personality) of Stottlemeyer and Disher. "Mr. Monk Meets the Playboy" stars Gary Cole as a girlie-mag publisher who blackmails the chivalrous Monk by acquiring, and threatening to print, old topless photos of Sharona. One of the season's best shows, "Mr. Monk and the Paperboy," finds the fastidious, orderly detective in a major freakout when his own home becomes a crime scene. Still a comic joy and still stimulating for mystery buffs, Monk: Season Two is highly recommended. Among appealing guest stars are Rachel Dratch, Glenne Headley, Tim Curry, and John Turturro as Monk's Mycroft-like brother. --Tom Keogh

Any fan of the first season Monk series will be thrilled to own this set. There is a different theme song which has us OCD fans a bit challenged, but by the third season, you will be comfortable with this challenge. Captain Stot.... becomes my hero!

As avid Tony Shalhoub fans, we thoroughly enjoyed this first season disc. He's smart, funny, obsessive and the best detective on TV. Too bad he's calling it quits. We will all miss him and the rest of the cast greatly. Make some popcorn, turn out the lights, turn off the phones, load up the disc and prepare to be truly entertained by this wonderful series.

My sister told me about this show several years ago - one of her favorites. I didn't watch it and wasn't interested at the time. I bought her some 'Monk' DVDs as a gift, but ended up watching them myself and got hooked! My wife and I have been married 30+ years and this plus the (now discontinued) 'Reba' series are our all time favorites. This is good family entertainment - something rare these days.

Absolutely hilarious!! I have never seen OCD in such a funny light. The writing for show is engaging because it appeals to the my comical and suspense side at the same time. My husband and I got hooked watching reruns of Mr. Monk on Sunday nights. When we realized that we wanted to see the early seasons, Amazon offered the best price. I look forward to purchasing the other seasons.
