USA's Monk Portrays Life With OCD

Tuesday December 4, 2007

The USA Network's popular TV series Monk depicts the life of a detective with OCD. Actor Tony Shalhoub, who has won three Emmys for this role, plays Adrian Monk, a former San Francisco policeman whose obsessive-compulsive disorder ultimately cost him his job.

Now working as a private investigator, Monk uses his meticulousness and obsessive attention to detail to solve cases that have stumped the police. Check USA's schedule for program times. In addition, the official website for Monk provides information on OCD.
