I was actually hoping for a thread like this!
Okay, I'm in the process of making a list but right now these are my top five favorites of all time...
1
Goes Home Again-This is the first Monk that made me cry!

Seeing Ambrose, Adrian and Natalie in the ambulance crying, because Ambrose thinks he's going to die any minute was so sad! And prior to that, when Adrian realizes that Ambrose ate the "tainted" candy bar! This one also had several hilarious moments; my favorite being Randy's suggestion that they write "Not Keifer Sutherland" on the bottom of the suspect's picture!

Oh, and the "Frankenstein's Monster" comment!
2-
The Three Pies-OMG, I absolutely LOVE this epsiode! Such sweet scenes between Adrian and Ambrose. Especially when Adrian begs Ambrose to tell him why he never contacted him after Trudy died. OMG, that was just heartbreaking, watching Ambrose break down with guilt because he asked Trudy to go get him some cough syrup. I loved it when Adrian was comforting him. That's definitely something you don't see every day!
3-
Mrs. Monk-This is definitely one of my most favorite Dr. Kroger episodes. When this episode first aired, I wasn't as huge of a Monk fan as I am now. When they were suggesting that Trudy might be alive, I was seriously on the edge of my seat the whole time. In the middle of the show, my husband and I left to go eat at a restaurant and I swear the whole time I was just so restless, because I wanted to see how the show ended! I thought it was an extremely emotional episode. I wish I would have told Stanley that I loved him in "Mrs. Monk" He was wonderful. I loved how he was so gentle and caring with Adrian. My only suggestion to "enhance" it would have been to have more scenes with Dr. Kroger. I know they only have so much time, but I wish there would have been a follow-up (hmmm... that gives me an idea...

)
4.
Visits A Farm-I love this one! I love that Randy is front and center through most of the episode. I love Brooke Adams as well. That was hilarious when the Sheriff hit Adrian on the butt. I'm sure she was the only one allowed to do that. OMG, his face was priceless! I think my favorite moment, though was when Randy was asleep, and Monk came in and whispered "Here's what Happened" so that Randy would think he had solved the crime (which gave him his self-confidence back). So sweet! Also I loved "A bus to a farm, a bus.... to a farm..."
5.
Sleeping Suspect-contains probably the funniest scene ever. Adrian spills the plant and gets dirt all over the floor. He goes to the closet and pulls out the vacuum cleaner and unplugs something to plug in the vacuum. I about DIED when what he unplugged turned out to be the "coma guy's" life support! I was laughing so hard, I was crying, and afterwards I couldn't even describe it to anyone without throwing myself into hysterical fits of laughter! That was classic!
