an oddly addictive, endearing cop dramady on the USA cable network, centering around the character of Adrian Monk (played by Tony Shalhoub), a San Fransisco detective battling with obsessive-compulsive disorder and his grief over the death of his late wife, Trudy.
i usually don't watch TV, but i make an exception for Monk.

I can't believe no one has given the real defintion yet. A monk is a dedicated religious person who lives in a monastery.

An incredibly good show starring Tony Shaloub. Sharona used to be Monk's assistant but she left and now his assistant is Natalie :-( But its still the funniest show on. Monk is afraid of milk, dogs, germs, small spaces, elevators, kids and birth. He is OCD and needs everything to be perfect. His wife, Trudy died in a car bomb accident and he will never be the same. Hes funny though, and so is everyone else on the show.
It's a jungle out there, disorder and confusion everywhere.........

A large yet studious creature that builds and studies architecture. When in action, a Monk can be seen up to 15 mph -running- scooping ground balls or getting lit on the weekend. Overall, any man strives to be a Monk by any means necessary.
Example 1: “What’s good, Monk.”
Example 2: “By the end of the summer I'm tryna be Monk.”
