Monk Season 3 is a masterclass in how to handle a major cast change without derailing your show. It deepens the characters, sharpens the mysteries, and delivers some of the funniest physical comedy (watch Shalhoub’s face during the panic room episode) and most touching drama in the series.

Whether you’re a first-time watcher or revisiting, pay close attention to the transition from Sharona to Natalie. It’s a testament to the show’s strong writing and Shalhoub’s incredible performance that you’ll soon forget there was ever a change at all. Warning: Mild spoilers for Season 3 ahead

This two-part season opener is essentially a Monk movie. Monk returns to New York to find his therapist’s killer, forcing him to confront his past, his agoraphobia (hello, plane ride!), and the mystery of his wife Trudy’s death. It’s epic, emotional, and sets a dark, serialized tone that the show rarely attempts again.
