Adrian Monk New Look: With Facial Hair!

>

I can't believe what I am seeing in this video! Tony Shalhoub, the Adrian Monk in my mind, the super allergic to germs and dust and anything that is not symmetric and not in balance, has grown facial hair. Wow! I like his smile as he still looks very innocent, still very Monkish rather than anyone else. but Monk. Maybe this is cause by the fact that 99.9% of the time that I saw this person, he is always the Adrian Monk to me! I love this video as this is a video to cherish: he looks so different yet the same Monkish one!

.
What do you think everyone? Do you like him in this new look? For me, he looks great in this. He still looks very organized, even the facial hair is arranged in a very symmetrical fashion.

Adrian Monk Withe The Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Role

>

See how Tony explained how he did the role of a person with OCD. If you see the youtube page, you would be able to read various reactions to this video. Some claim that he is very alike to persons with OCD that some of the respondents know while there's one respondent telling that he's got OCD but not acting like Adrian Monk at all. Isn't that an interesting thing? I bet it was a whole lot of challenge to succeed to his level. Believe it or not, when I see Monk's face, I think of cleanliness, symmetry and perfection. His character hits the subconscious taking the person to believe that Tony is Monk... It's a very strong character.

For me, it's not the thing that he's got OCD but Monk is just lovable! I bet you agree, right?.

Monk's First Theme Song: "Monk Main Title Theme"

>

If you still ache for the last, original, the very first theme song in Monk, you better check this video out. It looks so real with the close up playing of the guitar. There are a lot of mixed reactions as to the changing of the theme but for me, whether it's the first (this one) or the the second theme, which is entitled, "It's a Jungle Outthere", they both suit the series. Why is that? And how about you? Maybe your preference over the original theme is stronger over the second theme, or vice versa? What do you say?

Why do I like the first theme? Here are the reasons:

1. It is the original one, I got used to it already;

2, It is strong and indicates a funny/jolly feeling when I hear it;

3. It signals me to watch out for Mr. Monk who's going to adjust the umbrellas;

4. It's beautiful!

Why do I Like the Second Theme, the "It's a Jungle Outthere" by Randy Newman?

1. The lyrics does suit what is Mr. Monk, his 132 phobias and a lot more;

2. The voice is so cool, although the melody is not as jolly as the first theme;

3. I just love the idea that someone sings that "it's a jungle out there", as it is indeed!
