Question: How exactly does Monk afford to pay Natalie? Would he still get a pension after being discharged for psychiatric reasons? Is it ever mentioned (in-universe or otherwise) if he's independently wealthy or something? On several occasions Natalie tried to get the department to pay Monk more and tells Monk he can't afford things at times or his check will bounce, like he's broke.

Question: Is it ever stated (in-universe or otherwise) if Natalie has a second job, or how she can afford everything, including all her new cars (I've seen her in at least 5 new cars, including an Audi)? She's always complaining she's broke, even after it's revealed she's a Davenport. But she also claims she doesn't take money from them. Plus, she's always trying to get Monk to pay her and/or pay her the full amount she's owed.

Mr. Monk and the Rapper - S6-E2

Continuity mistake: When Murderuss introduces Snake, we see Monk turn to shake his hand and the briefcase on the table is closed. But in the next shot, it's opened.

Bishop73

Factual error: When Cyborg is looking at video footage of Linda Reed, it shows her social security number (971-33-1276). But SS numbers don't start with 9, which is reserved for ITINs.

Trivia: The delivery company seen in Westview is called "Presto", which is a word magicians often use (usually after a quick change trick).

Show generally

Revealing mistake: When everyone is supposed to be frozen, the neighbor girl standing behind the car can be seen moving her hand onto the car. This happens as Monica says "I'm not afraid of you, Wanda." (00:24:25)

Wrench in the Works - S8-E2

Continuity mistake: When the guys are around the table talking about the car, Mike is holding the pictures. It cuts to his hands being empty and then back to him holding the picture and back to being empty.

Mr. Monk Makes the Playoffs - S7-E13

Revealing mistake: When Monk steps in front of the limo to stop it from leaving, on the bottom right of the screen there's a black line that doglegs to the right (seen over Monk's coat sleeve). It's like the camera was cracked or something was stuck to it. When the camera angle changes it's gone, but is there where the camera is back on Monk.

Bruce Wayne - S2-E7

Trivia: When Dick Grayson sees Bruce Wayne on stage, Bruce does the "Batusi" (moving his fingers across his eyes) seen in the original Adam West "Batman" TV show.

Bishop73

Season 2 generally

Other mistake: Conner's T-shirt never gets a bullet hole in it despite being shot in the chest. For example, we see him block 3 bullets with his body when saving Mr. Luthor. Nothing of his powers suggest he's generating a force field.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk and the Big Game - S5-E3

Character mistake: When Julie asks "who discovered DNA?", Captain Stottlemeyer says "Watson and Crick. Two British scientists." However, James Watson is American (as of 2021 he's still alive), not British. And the duo only discovered the structure of DNA, not DNA itself. As much knowledge as the Captain demonstrates on the subject, he should know these two facts at least.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk and the Actor - S5-E1

Continuity mistake: At the end, when Monk is in Dr. Kroger's office, when he says "it's nice to be home", you see Dr. Kroger putting on his glasses. When the camera angle changes, he's putting his glasses on again.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk Buys A House - S7-E1

Stupidity: There's no reason for Jake to just chain Monk and Natalie up instead of just killing them once Monk figured out what was happening. He killed Cassie because Monk was onto her and then Ramone. Keeping them alive while he searches the house serves him no purpose.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk Buys A House - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: When Monk is asking Ms. Moody if the roof is known, she's crying into both her hands. But in the next shot, she's only crying into her left hand and her right hand is down. The shot changes, and we see her lowering her right hand, not left. In the next shot her left hand is up again.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk Buys A House - S7-E1

Continuity mistake: In the beginning, we see Cassie with her watch on her left wrist. But in the shot with both her hand on Joseph's back, the watch is on her right wrist.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16

Continuity mistake: When Monk and Natalie are watching the video of Dale, Monk puts his hand behind the screen (like he's blocking the sun to see it better) and Natalie is holding it on the bottom. When the shot changes to the screen, there're no hands behind it.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk Is on the Run (2) - S6-E16

Other mistake: The article about the "Car Wash Columbo" repeats itself after it mentions he's named after the famous T.V. detective.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk and the Three Julies - S6-E13

Other mistake: When Natalie sits down with Randy eating ice cream, she's says "vanilla fudge, my favorite." But the carton is labeled "chocolate." Plus Randy says he got it out of her freezer, so she would know she bought just regular chocolate ice cream.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk and the Man Who Shot Santa - S6-E10

Continuity mistake: The amount of stuffed animals on Natalie's hood change depending on the camera angle, as she and Monk are talking before he goes up to the roof.

Bishop73

Mr. Monk and the Daredevil - S6-E7

Trivia: The doctor that calls Joey is named "Dr. Levine", which seems to be a nod to Ted Levine, the actor who plays Captain Stottlemeyer.
