Netflix subscribers are celebrating the arrival of Monk, one of the most beloved television shows of the 21st century, on the service.
The comedy crime series starred Tony Shalhoub, 70, as private detective Adrian Monk, who helped police with unsolved crimes even as he struggled with his own obsessive-compulsive disorder and a debilitating fear of germs.
The show, which ran for eight seasons from 2002 to 2009 on USA Network, was so successful with fans that Peacock revived the character for a follow-up film, The Last Case of Mr. Monk, in late 2023.
Now that Netflix has upgraded its offering with the classic comedy, fans of the series have expressed their excitement on social media, with many saying they plan to stick around to binge on Monk.
‘Netflix just made my day by adding Monk!!! Very very happy!!’ » exclaimed a fan.

Fans already received some good news late last year when Peacock revived Monk for the follow-up film The Last Case of Mr. Monk: A Monk Movie.
