Description:
Return to the scene of the crime with Emmy Award and Golden Globe winner Tony Shalhoub in all 16 Season Four episodes of the quirky and amusing series Monk. Private detective Adrian Monk has brains, instincts, a photographic memory and more than a few Obsessive Compulsive Disorder’s. These traits, his ever-present handy wipes and his devoted assistant, Natalie Teeger (Traylor Howard), help him as he solves cases involving amnesia, betrayal, first-loves, true loves, and of course, murder. Along with Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine) and Lieutenant Disher (Jason Gray-Stanford), Monk is on the case and more germ-phobic than ever in this fresh and funny 4-disc set.
Amazon.com:
Adrian Monk is still 'the man' as this brilliant fourth season demonstrates. Not that his confidence in his crime-solving abilities isn't tested from time to time. In the fun season-opener, Monk finds himself upstaged by low-rent private eye Marty Eels (guest star Jason Alexander in a spinoff-worthy role). The very flappable Monk is further undone by Eels' seemingly uncanny ability to find clues in the baffling case of a jewelry store robbery ('He's cheating,' Monk protests in vain). This is something of a 'threshold' season for Monk, to quote his psychiatrist, who is moved to openly weep when Monk uncharacteristically allows a glass to go uncoastered at one point. But his obsessive-compulsive disorders still get the best of him, as in one of the season's more clever episodes, 'Mr. Monk Goes to the Office,' in which Monk, going undercover, is blissfully in his element as an 'office drone,' doing the same tasks day in and day out. Just as he is accepted as one of the office gang, he alienates them by not participating in a bowling tournament (it must be the shoes).
Tony Shalhoub, a two-time Emmy-winner for his nuanced performances as Monk, was nominated for his third Emmy for this season. One of his finest hours is 'Mr. Monk and Mrs. Monk,' in which it appears that his beloved late wife, Trudy, is not only still alive, but a suspect in a murder. This season also develops Monk's relationship with his new personal assistant, Natalie (Trayler Howard). In 'Mr. Monk Gets Drunk,' it's all about trust when Natalie initially doesn't believe Monk's implausible tale of a disappeared wine-country-inn guest Monk claims to have met the night before. Genius is pain, John Lennon once said, and this applies to Monk. His neurotic tendencies alienate him from the mainstream. In 'Office,' he so wants to be accepted that he writes conversational cue cards, and the solving of the crime doesn't compensate for him being a cubicle laughingstock. But as the series progresses, Monk is getting better, so much so, that Captain Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine) informs him that he is being put under contract retainer for '16 homicides a year.' With a sly nod to the series' renewal, Stottlemeyer tells him they best take things 'one year at a time.' --Donald Liebenson

Monk 4 has exceptional subtitles--clean, complete, and covering everything including most, if not all, of the extra stuff. I didn't watch the whole season straight through, so I might've forgotten some of the extras. It's pretty unusual, and very welcome, to have accessibility for the extras. Thanks, whoever's responsible!!! Monk is just too good to miss a word!

Monk continues to be one of the best series on t.v. Tony Shalhoub plays his difficult character believably and with just the right amount of humor.
It's good t.v. without vivid violence. The strong language is only moderate and kept to a low level. Almost as good as Moonlight...which some idiot canceled.

This is one of the few TV shows that my whole family enjoys. Tony Shalhoub is so fun!

The Monk Season Four DVD was sent to my Son who is living in Japan. I have to compliment Amazon for their expertise when it come to shipping Items internationally. It arrived before the date that was given to me as an arrival date. My son and his new friends in Japan enjoyed the DVD. The DVD was in perfect condition and the DVD was Monk Season Four in entirety. A good buy as always from Amazon.

Things keep changing for the characters, which is a good thing for any tv series; it helps the show to evolve. The captain's marriage crumbles, Julie tries modeling, Randy speaks up for himself, and Monk has several breakthroughs with the help of Dr. Kroger, although the main character's tragic core remains, and is central to the show.
I still have to say that I miss Bitty Schram tremendously; Howard just doesn't quite fill the void, although she does her best.
