I am absolutely thrilled we will get to see Sharona again, though a little sad it will only be for one measly episode. Natalie is “okay” but never really compared to Sharona, or FIT the show and Monk’s character like Sharona did. To this day, I watch and enjoy again every Sharona re-run, and have them all taped. I have loved MONK since the first episode and have been in mourning since I learned this would be the last season. Goodbye Tony, you will be sorely missed.

Count me on the side that does not care for Sharona. She always was chewing gum like a cow chewing cud. Her character reinforced the old stereotypical image of New Yorkers / New Jersey citizens as loud, crude, poorly educated slobs. I realize that is not who she is but the character she was supposed to portray. I just did not care for it. I agree that she was just to whinny. Natalie is a classy woman. She is strong willed, intelligent, caring, and comes from a good background even if they do have their own problems – she has survived in the world despite her parental upbringing, and disapproval of her marriage. And lets not forget Natalie’s daughter, Julie Teeger, she helped bring Monk out of his cocoon. She was a great addition to the cast. I have to say that I am less than happy with the quality of the stories last year and so far this year. The plot is so transparent. My wife and I usually figure it out in the first 10 to 15 minutes which ruins the rest of the show for us. The worst was the episode when Monk was pimping for a hotel chain. We all know that the sponsors pay the bills but this was just over the top commercialism. Monk appears to have lost so many of the little quirks that endeared him to us. I know he is on the road to recovery but I feel like it should have been written into the script not just ignored. Some one new to the series would never know that Monk has OCD. He just seems a little eccentric.

I would love to see a Monk Psych combined episode. It would be hilarious… those commercials are classic with the pair, and a whole show would be side splitting.

First, to Jesse,

Actually Sharona has never been back on the show. The closest we came to seeing her was the 2-part episode of “Monk on the Run” where Natalie mentioned that she and her son would come back for Adrian’s funeral.

As for a return of her for the final season, I’m very happy for the closure, but the show is not really about her, so a single episode appearance is appropriate to me.

will miss the WHOLE CAST I agree 100 percent, Toni, and I wonder what show will ever pair up with Psych as brilliantly as Monk does. That's a match made in TV heaven. :)

I didn’t care for Sharona and her whining nature … Natalie has added a lot of class to the show. Thank God Sharona will ONLY be back for one episode. Guess I can’t join in the Sharona celebration but I just didn’t care for her character.

I am excited that Bitty Schram, is returning even for one episode. The bad news is that Monk is going off the air after this season. My husband and I are very disappointed that a funny, entertaining, and good acting show should be taken off. Yet other programs not as good or entertaining remain. I for one know many of my friends who watch Monk, are very unhappy that it is going off the air. If there is anyway to save it I wish someone could do something to keep it going. I think getting Bitty Schram back would be one of the ways to keep the show going on. Tony Shaloup, and the rest of the cast just fit together and should be given awards for their great work. Thank you for Monk, it will be sorely missed.
