Did Monk buy a house a season or so ago? I watched this week's episode and he was in an apartment. I know there was an episode where a handyman made a mess of the house that I deliberately avoided--did that result in him moving out?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

He bought a house (to avoid the sound of someone practicing the piano if memory served) but moved back to the usual apartment by the end of the episode (after making his peace with the piano playing and discovering that the handyman guy was a killer, of course).

Thanks. I don't remember who played the handyman, but for some reason they made me turn the episode off.

It was somebody like Ray Romano. Very turn-offable.

Brad Garrett? Okay, that's precisely why I turned it off. Can't stand.
No Disher this week. There haven't been many eps without him, have there?

He does usually show up, but maybe not when they are out of town. I can't remember. It seems odd to not have him in it at all.
The references to Julie made her sound a lot older than I thought she was, but maybe we haven't actually seen her for longer than I thought.
ita, did you say something about the seven-pointed sheriff's star? I got to wondering about it after counting points on badges on several shows recently and looked it up - apparently it's a kabbalistic sign used for protection from evil - the seven points correspond to the seven days of creation and probably other stuff - that somehow got more or less monopolized by sheriffs.

Sheriff Carter on Eureka wears one, but most of the other sheriffs I've noticed have six-pointed stars. I only started looking once I counted Colin's, though. Where else did you see it with seven points?
eta: The actress who plays Julie is eighteen, so I guess she could be that old. Older than I thought, too.

Tonight on Monk, and I think last week's Psych, though I'm not sure if that's what I was watching when I started counting. I'm pretty sure there's a seven-pointed star painted on the door of my local police station, also, I'll check next time I'm over there - it's got the closest no-fee ATM to me, so I'm there fairly often.
(eta: that is to say, last night's Monk that I watched tonight)

I could have sworn the one on Monk had 6 points. But I didn't count Psych.
When I image google sheriff's star it comes up with a bunch of five-pointed ones too, which I'm really sure I never see on TV.
