YMMV / Monk S1E2 "Mr. Monk and the Psychic"

• Hilarious in Hindsight: Monk being so adamant against his belief in psychics, especially psychics working with the police, becomes twice as funny with the premiere of USA Network's other comedic detective series, Psych, centering around the premise of a fake psychic aiding the police.
  • Even more hilarious, the series finale of Psych implied that both shows take place in the same universe, as Chief Vick, who moved to San Francisco, told Shawn that there was already a consultant working with her on a case, who at the moment was alphabetizing the kitchen offscreen.
