It's a Jungle Out There

My favorite TV show of all time has to be Monk. If you don't know why, then you've clearly never watched it. It is beautifully made. The shots are so carefully taken, and even though it is a comedy show, you find some way to bring depth into it. One way they bring depth into this show is, well, with Adrian Monk. He is such a complex character. At times, you think he is just plain stupid. But then you understand why he's the way he is, and then you feel a deeper appreciation for him. Just his backstory alone is enough to keep you intrigued in the show, but then you have that dark past mixed with the comedy, and it just equals close to perfection, in my personal opinion. I understand that this show isn't everyone's cup of tea, which is only to be expected, but I love how it's a normal detective show with such depth to it. I haven't found that anywhere except for here, and that's why I love it so much.
