Actually that was pretty much what my wife did. She wasn't flipping so much as killing a commercial break when I was away answering an email. I came back into the room "what's this?" "Breaking Bad, was wondering what all the fuss was about, this is the final episode" and then she flipped it back to whatever we were watching.
I've never heard of Monk, strange. BBT hasn't caught my attention. But then I'll admit we tend to watch mostly reality shows (Survivor, Amazing Race, and such, NOT shows such as Jersey Shore or the like), Seinfeld re-runs, HGTV, real crime shows (Murder Mysteries etc.)...

Really? Monk is (was) one of my favorite shows.

It stars Tony Shalaub as "the defective detective", (as he is affectionitely called). He has many phobias, such as heights, germs, dirt, milk. (Yes, I said milk.) ;-)

Anyway, he is very similar to Sherlock Holmes in as that he can solve crimes that baffle the police. But he is so emotionally damaged, (he lost his wife in a car bombing), that he needs an assistant, (nearly a nurse), to help him out. He, (and his family) is similar to Robert Crumb and his family, (which if you saw the movie "Crumb", means lots of weird situations).

Highly recommended.

As far as reality shows, I've only ever watched one, (King of the Nerds), which was okay, but I doubt I will watch the next season. My wife has watched a few, but they just don't interest me in the slightest.

  Looked it up, he's the guy who was on Wings, no? My wife used to watch that. I think we live in different worlds; also never heard of King of the Nerds OR Crumb!? Have a great night. :)
