Remember the USA Network show with the germophobe Monk? He has been preparing for something like Coronavirus since he was born? Adrian Monk was using wipes long before they were cool. Which makes me wonder what would he be like now when we are all washing our hands every few minutes?
I don’t have to wonder because Seth MacFarlane asked Tony Shalhoub to reprise his most beloved role for Peacock’s The At-Home Variety Show. I seriously cannot remember the last time I laughed that hard. Once you see him washing his hands to 99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall, you know you are about to watch a comedic genius at work.
If that is not enough to bring some much needed joy to your day, then seeing a mini-reunion between Shalhoub and his co-stars Ted Levine (Captain Leland Stottlemeyer), Jason Gray-Stanford (Lieutenant Randy Disher), and Traylor Howard (Natalie Teeger) will do just that.
If I were Peacock, then I would reprise the dramedy with Monk solving unsolved murders from his home because he is too afraid to go out. They could actually film it now. Wouldn’t you watch it?
Back to For Good, the online series is raising money for three nonprofits. They are United Way, AmeriCares, and Feeding America. Three organizations that have helped people get through this Coronavirus crisis.
When it comes to Coronavirus, Shalhoub revealed that he and his wife Brooke Adams tested positive for the virus a few weeks ago, and have beaten it.

When I was younger, I used to say that they call it Passover because you don’t pass over your food until after the holiday is over. I am not the only person who feels that way, so does Family Guy’s Alex Bornstein. She reworked Miley Cyrus’ Wrecking Ball and turned it into a song for Pesach. Forget Dayenu; this is the song of 8 days.
While that is how I feel about it, my cousin feels this way, “Disgusting Seriously! Just like you and you’re wrong, we don’t all relate at all.” Needless to say, that cousin and I agree on nothing.
Scott Grimes has voiced Steve Smith on American Dad since 2005, and the Coronavirus is not going to stop him now. The Orville actor shared a photo of himself recording some tracks for the TBS sitcom from his laundry room. That is the cleanest the show has ever been. Which is why we love it so much, no matter what network it is on.
Back to Grimes, doesn’t it make you feel better that Hollywood stars also have to work at home in whatever room they can? I wonder what room his co-star Seth MacFarlane is using at his house.
Fun fact, Grimes is two years old than his TV dad, MacFarlane.
Before Seth MacFarlane was a douchey talking teddy bear in Ted, he was a dick on the Gilmore Girls. He hasn’t changed a single bit since he was 28 in that 2002 episode.
Before Seth MacFarlane created the Star Trek inspired show The Orville, he filmed a Star Trek spoof in the late ’80s. He still looks the same as he did he was 13 in that 1987 video.
