Monk

A brilliant former police detective now works as a private consultant after a personal tragedy and a nervous breakdown. Living with numerous fears and compulsive habits, he uses extraordinary observation skills and unconventional methods to help solve San Francisco’s most baffling cases.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want cozy crime mysteries with humor, heart, and an unusual detective; Not for you if you prefer gritty realism or tightly consistent storytelling, like The Mentalist.
