hi am am very new here and i don't know quite were to go toask a question, so i came here. see i have a friend the lives in ireland and she loves monk. well it's not very popular down there so she tries to watch it online, only she cannot find a place that won't take a hundred yrs so that she can watch all the new episodes. well i guess what i am asking is if i tell her to log on to the usa network to watch monk will that work over there in ireland or no?

Hmmm....wish I knew but I don't. I am sorry. But I do think it would be worth it to post the same question in the topics section in the actual Monk forum where other Monk fans may know or be able to tell you how to find out. Here's the link for it:

Good Luck and I hope she can watch it!

sorry neither do I

Hi I'm new too so hope it's okay to post this!

If she can't find anything online, play.com in the UK are selling the complete seasons 1 - 6 boxset with free P&P (for northern Ireland and the free shipping also includes Eire) for just £28.99, I just ordered it so thought I'd mention it. Here's a link to that product's page Play.com. I've bought loads of stuff off them and they're very reliable, they state 7 - 10 days shipping on orders outside the UK - this sadly doesn't include for the US folks, but then you'd take a hit on the exchange rates anyway...

(I'm not connected in any way to play.com btw so hope it was okay to post this. )

that may work for her.

After I posted that, play.com went to "awaiting stock" AFTER you order (I wanted a second one as a gift) and so did amazon.co.uk - I got lucky and got my boxset yesterday BUT I think amazon at least (UK version) is awaiting new stock around the 15th October, so just some info if anyone's awaiting this or thinking of buying it.

But I'm no industry insider, those are just the dates I got from amazon.co.uk. and I have no idea if they'll be fulfilled or if play.com are on the same schedule.

Oh - and the packaging on that deal SUCKS, so it might not be the best gift for people totally new to Monk - you get a really flimsy outer case, not the usual solid board thing, it's more like a cornflake packet! - and the discs are in black un-marked flimsy board envelopes with 2 discs to each bi-fold envelope (there's an amazon review that warns about this) so be ready to surf and print out your own episode guides!

That price is still brilliant though for SO MUCH entertainment, and play.com do free P&P, amazon of course don't... just bringing this thread up to speed on my findings, there's probably other sellers out there who have other deals for the UK.

I'm well happy with mine, but I won't pretend it's the world's best ever presentation, I think is an accurate summary!
