Monk (2002)

Show generally

Question: Why aren't there any more Monk reruns on TV after the 5 day marathon last Dec? I can't find a show anywhere.

Answer: There are so many TV shows in syndication now, that not all old series can be regularly shown. It also depends on ratings. A TV channel will not continue running a show if it does not garner enough viewers for them to charge higher prices for advertising time. Often channels show different series in cycles, so it may well be that Monk will be on again in the future.

The entire series is available on Amazon Video. That's where I discovered it and am now a major fan.

I am on season 6 started from 1st on Apple.

Monk is currently airing weekday afternoons on Cozi TV.

Answer: It's on Heroes and Icons channel every day at 3 and 4.

Answer: I agree with the other answers but would add that it's also a matter of economics. As the show is now exclusively available on Prime and other subscription channels, this probably prohibits regular cable channels from showing it (and other programs) as part of their TV schedule.
