Before Tony Shalhoub worked in an airport on Wings, he worked at a post office on Search for Tomorrow. He looks the same now as he did when he was 31 in that 1985 episode.
In 2002, we fell in love with Tony Shalhoub as Monk, a germ-hating, OCD detective who was beyond incredible at solving crimes. And then, seven years later, we said goodbye to him.
Well, on December 8th, he is back on Peacock for Mr. Monk’s Last Case: A Monk Movie. And after watching the trailer, I feel like I am home in my happy place.
I forgot it was a feel-good show, even though there were murders in almost every episode.
But that was not why we tuned in. We tuned it because Adrian Monk was just so gosh darn lovable with all of his quirks.
I hope that this movie, which also stars OGs Ted Levine, Jason Gray-Stanford, Traylor Howard, Melora Hardin, and Hector Elizondo, will be back for more. Maybe they can team it up with a Psych revival. It is what we need!
In March, Peacock announced that they were bringing Monk back for one last movie, and today, we got to see the old gang together again.
Here is the first look of Natalie Teeger (Traylor Howard), Adrian Monk(Tony Shalhoub), Randy Disher (Jason Gray-Stanford), and Leland Stottlemeyer (Ted Levine) discussing the case in Mr. Monk’s Last Case: A Monk Movie.
Monk returns to solve one last, very personal case involving his beloved stepdaughter Molly, a journalist preparing for her wedding.
Even though it has been 14 years since the series ended, it looks like no time has passed for them. Their wonderful chemistry survived all the hand sanitizer that Monk has used, and imagine how much he used during the pandemic.
