Monk Synopsis: Adrian Monk (Emmy®-winner Tony Shalhoub) 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, Trudy, the devastated Monk becomes obsessive-compulsive. His psychological disorder has caused him to develop an abnormal fear of virtually everything: germs, heights, crowds... even milk. Monk's condition costs him his job, but he's back as a police consultant despite the unique challenges he encounters in his everyday life. These challenges lead Monk to hire a personal nurse, Sharona Fleming (Bitty Schram), who is always there to offer her assistance, even with the simplest of tasks (like organizing his sock drawer). Her less-than-subtle prodding keeps the "defective detective" on track in his investigations, as well as in his efforts to convince Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine) to allow him to return to the force.

Ironically, he's the most trustworthy of the bunch.
This was one of my favorite episodes...Monk irritating the other jurors then saving the day by alerting Natalie that something was amiss in the jury room. A comic version of 12 Angry Men!
In real life, there would be next to no chance Monk would get picked for a jury since he has close ties to the police. Not to mention his documented mental health issues.
I got kicked off the Jury selection by talking too much. During a Voir Dire I gave an extra couple sentences on matter of this or that. This is the recipe for not making the final Jury.
You don't even need any of that. Lawyers hate opinionated jurors. during the vouire dire he would have just been thrown out.
Usually, I got out after waiting the day. But ... got on 1 jury. Sadly, we didn't get to finish because his lawyer developed heart issues. Sad because the defendant murdered the witness in his jail cell. They had a whole new trial for that! IIRC, they built a mock cell to show jurors. Last time, the defendants lawyers kicked me for being an old white dude.
"Don't get me wrong, it's a great system, it really is the best justice system in the world. I just don't want to be a part of it."
"What if everybody felt that way?"
"Everybody DOES."
One of my favorite lines in all of fiction.
That line was not in the original script, that was his personal opinion.
My mother is not a fan of jury duty at all
All that time he's writing his vote, not one of the other eleven thinks to point out that there is no longer any point in him writing his answer because everyone knows that whatever they hear next will be his.
They deserve to be made to wait!
I wonder how many people let the fact they were forced to attend jury duty influence their decisions?
"Mr Whitaker, we have the defendant on video beheading three people, a dozen witnesses showing he held up a bank, a signed confession that he later recanted...and your still saying he is not guilty?"
"Yes your honor, I think the defense made an excellent case....and I'm hoping this proves I should never be chosen for jury duty again"
I used to work for the police department “Get out!”
Why didn't they state his OCD was a reason for him not wanting to do those things like sharing a bathroom or eating the food?
Yup.
But we're glad they didn't, because then we would have had one less episode of Monk.
Because the show almost never explicitly says he has OCD. Possibly because it's not exactly the most accurate portrayal.
because at the time the show aired, nobody would consider OCD an excuse that you couldn't just get over
Yeah I think ocd wasn’t taken as seriously back then as it is now. Plus he wasn’t always the best communicator 😂 he kinda just rambled
Also no one ever believes Monk at first 😂 he’s THAT strange and bizarre and tbh if I met someone like him I’d think he was just a weirdo too
I had jury duty two weeks ago. Waiting for jury selection, we all waited until 5pm, then let us all go. If it wasnt for android games, I woulda went nuts.
A judge? Telling a member of a jury….in a courtroom that nobody likes a tattle tale…..
6:00 -- "It's customary to start off with a preliminary vote. ... Any objections?"
YES.
Once you have stated your opinion--even a tentative one--it is more difficult to see things objectively.
No one has a totally open mind, but stating your current opinion closes your mind a little bit more. That's a terrible way to start a jury deliberation.
That is but your opinion and not a fact. One can retain an open mind and provide a current opinion. Such a provision does not unquestionably close ones mind by any degree. I disagree with your objectivity -- or the apparent lack thereof. Who sits and deliberates on your biased and prejudicial jury? I will agree your jury choice may be terrible.
@@StuartKlimek I could be wrong, but I think there have been studies done that have shown that simply uttering a statement can, over time, serve to cement a belief of that statement in one's mind.
I admit that my assertion is at least as much based on my own observations over a lifetime of 70 years--and is therefore, as you said, my opinion.
"One can retain an open mind and provide a current opinion." There are degrees of "openness." What I am saying is not that one's objectivity is destroyed, but rather that it is diminished. And I stand by that opinion.
Interestingly, you have made the opposite assertion: "Such a provision does not unquestionably close ones mind by any degree." Which, of course, is your opinion. And you're welcome to it.
The funny thing is, Monk really was not fit to serve. The judge did not believe him and did not see the signs of someone with mental troubles.
And then he paid the price with the constant interference LOL!
I wonder how many people catch that this episode is based on “12 Angry Men”. Some of the dialogue comes straight from the movie. (It’s also a play I think but I don’t know which came first)
I knew it I wasn’t the only one!
me too monk, me too. This was a fun episode, the whole thing with the blinds was always funny.
Lol the scene "No Id" No Idea?" NO, I, D, " "No Idea?" NO ID!!!" "NO IDEA?"
He actively works with law enforcement, he would never get picked lol
I had a history teacher who doesn’t get picked for jury because he taught aspects of government.
😆 oh Adrian, i find him HILLLLAAARIOUS
The Judge is well spoken.
Since he works with the police, he would not be allowed on a jury.
He do not an official police anymore
@ultmewtwo But he DOES Consult with them on murder cases!
And technically, he is out on disability, IIRC.
I just watched the movie, I didn't think I'd cry but here we are, such a awesome end thank you Tony Shalhoub and everyone that made the show ❤ best of luck ❤️
In the real world, he could just say he used to be a cop.
All that coughing and grossness. 😩
comedy and crime the best 😂
Monk prepared us for pandemic
Even Monk knew masks were useless.
Not really...🤔
No one was prepared for the tRump administration to allow hundreds of thousands of people dying from COVID 19, were they.... Hmmmmmm
That’s not how you take an anonymous vote.
Ironically he would be put in intelligence as a analyst
The *Judge* saying no1 likes a tattletale, to a *juror* !!!!!
Jury duty: civic responsibility - I'm sure we all have heard people come up with numerous excuses not to serve...we had an Asian lady that has lived in the US for over 10 years tell a judge
that she didn't know what a gun is..... they sent her back to the jury pool...lol
how can someone be on a few juries, i thought once u get picked once u r immune for a long period of time
I always wondered why Monk needed an assistant instead of just carrying his own wipes.
My theory is that he just wanted a reason to have female companionship; he was lonely.
No, there are reasons that only make sense to the person with OCD as to why things are done a specific way.
This is actually explained either in the show or the audiobooks. Basically he can only carry a small number of stuff in his pockets because the more stuff is carried the more likely they'll get disorganized and his OCD would force him to reorganize his pockets every time. I think he carries exactly one item per pocket or something like that.
Better yet, why not just wear gloves?
It’s not just the wipes. He doesn’t drive. He needs constant reassurance. He can’t focus when he’s overwhelmed. He can’t always communicate his needs etc
@@brandonpayne2877 It's really difficult to explain how OCD affects the brain and it's difficult for regular people to understand as well. That's true of many mental illnesses and is a source of frustration for sufferers as one will so often hear, "Well, why don't you just...." It doesn't work like that.
The irony:trying to be anonymous in voting "guilty" or "not guilty, only to be the vote known by everyone. 🤦🏾♂️
1:20 Like a group of loyal citizens awaiting execution.
6:57 That girl with the black hair: I'm ALMOST POSITIVE she was in the "Trick or Treat" episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm"
Funny episode
I bet all the letters had the name "Adrian Monk" in it
❤ Clyde Kusatsu!
How Can Anyone not Adore Monk?
It's Benito Martinez from The Shield
How did monk pass his police training course ?
He wasn't this bad when Trudy was alive.
He also panics under pressure. There’s an episode where he needed to pass a fitness test but he was nervous and seemed unfit but he “passed” it when he was chasing the bad guy.
@rineyairy1067 You can say what you want about Adrian, but when it comes to actually helping someone he knows, he always overcomes his mental issues, and comes through!!! Remember when Natalie was in trouble at the recycling center, and Monk came there, even being sick, and saved her!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯
It is times like these that Monks irritates me the most
The premise is false, Police Officers or former Police Officers, like Lawyers, are ineligible for Jury Duty, they are exempt.
Not true, only ineligible if they're still in that profession, if they retire or leave that job for any reason, they have to do Jury Duty just like everyone else
@@jeandonaghue2150 different in my neck of the woods, once disqualified, disqualified for life
@anthonyburke5656 If your neck of the woods is outside the UK, then that may be
@@jeandonaghue2150 australia
I loved Monk, but the entire premise of the show was false, like 90% of his cases throughout the show they could easily get away with the murder if they don't admit to it and get a lawyer. Obviously we know he's right but usually he solved it by piecing together small details he noticed throughout. Sounds great but that relies on the jury coming to the same conclusion.
Spoiler alert if you haven't seen the last movie. Basically the guy used a tape measure to kill a guy and killed the guy that switched the tape measures. There's no way to prove that he had anything to do with that. Maybe killing the second guy since they could match the handwriting but no way that he did it to cover up the first murder.
wouldnt of his misses went not guilty too duud
i meant duh
Dear Tony, I wish you a wonderful year with your family, friends and colleagues.
