Hollywood weirdo, Sarah Silverman is great in another episode. My wife hated Sharona (who was always saying, "Oh my ___!") but she really liked Monk's next assistant, Natalie. Dale the Whale is fascinatingly creepy!

One strange episode had Willie Nelson in it. Out of the blue, Monk says he's a huge Willie Nelson fan. Sorry, but Monk is not the kind of man who would even know who Willie Nelson is. Further, Monk would be disgusted with what must be living in Willie's hair.

Overall, I loved the show. I looked forward to it every week.
