Just like Jerry's show, the viewer gets treated to four strong characters. Tony, Bitty, Ted, and Jason are irreplaceable....... well expect maybe for Bitty, amazin' as she wuz. (Thank God Traylor is so hawt.)

Ok, Og---another personality????
I'm sorry,aalexg1220. Just had to tease our Ogman a bit.
Although I didn't care for the Seinfield show, you're very right about the strong characters. And not just one "star" like some shows do. Each had a moment, or eppy, where it's mainly about them, and they shine in it.
Very cool of TS to not be a Star-hog and stepping back, so to speak, and letting the others show their acting abilities in a plot about them. That shows what a truly good person he is IMHO.

It's not me; all my personalities know how to spell "Hot."

But I do agree, aalex, that Nnatalie is One Sweet Potato.

As far as the Seinfeld thing -- Well, but this show is about something. It's got themes and subplots and character development. That, and peoples with kiddies can let them watch it, which they couldn't do with Seinfeld, unless they wanted to explain what it means to be master of one's domain.

Well, except for "Mr. Monk Goes to the Dentist! DUH!

True, the uncut version of the "Randy Disher Project's Don't Need No Badge" video was a bit racy.

Oh God, after seeing the short version, I can't bring myself to watch that.

Yay! Finally, Natalie in a skirt in "Dentist" episode. I wish the skirt could have been like a foot shorter in length, but I'll take anything I can get. Some nice cross-legged skirt scenes by Natalie

Never was big on Seinfeld. Maybe I was too old my son loved i t. Thought it was best program ever on tv. But Monk now this is a show I understand and love. Husband on other hand thinks it is just this side of stupid. Never have figured out why I married him. We never like any of the same things on tv. He likes to watch people hit little white balls, silly man.

There is no comparison whatsoever between these two excellent programs! LOL!

Do we see Monk embrace his little man? I think NOT! He embraces Cautious Bacchus the Phobia Plenitentiary! (giggles)
