Monk
Monkhad many great episodes across its eight seasons.
The innovative comedy drama produced a total of 125 episodes between 2002 and 2009.
The episode also has some very funny moments, showing how good the show is at balancing its focus.
However, the episode’s ending, with Ambrose finding a letter from his dad, was extremely emotional.
Even better, he wasn’t playing a character but a fictional version of himself.
This is one of the episodes whereMonkplays with the format of the classic detective seriesColumbo.

He even gets the kids in Julie’s class to start bullying the detective.
Billy Burke (Twilight) stars as an actor named Brad Terry.
Since it plays as one itself, it really makes all the jokes feel all the more familiar.
The mystery comes when Brad’s wife is murdered while he is outside talking to the paparazzi.
However, Monk believes that Brad killed her despite being outside when she appeared to have died.
The episode is also notable for centering Sharona’s son, Benji (Max Morrow) throughout.
He even calls him in one episode to have Benji walk him through Sharona’s chicken pot pie recipe.
