CBS has a new show this year with a "female Monk" character called "Elsbeth"


Yeah I don't think that is what that is. That is a spinoff show from a character in "The Good Wife". She's an eccentric lawyer not a detective. I haven't watched the new show I just remember the character from the when I watched "The Good Wife". I'm also not saying it's good or bad but I don't think its meant to be a female Monk

Thanks for the breakdown. I really enjoyed Psych but fell off when he finally landed Jules. Tried Monk but couldn't get into it. Wasn't crazy about Mentalist so never gave it a shot.

The Will Trent promos caught my eye and I figured I'll eventually give it a shot and binge the first season.

She was a recurring character on The Good Wife and The Good Fight.

the Mentalist, who clearly stole the idea of Psych


Out of loyalty to Psych I have never watched the Mentalist.

Mentalist went a season too long. Maybe it was 2. Should have ended with resolving the main mystery and such.

There’s an episode of Psych where they talk about how good The Mentalist is and how it’s like watching your own life.

There’s also an episode of Psych - I thinks it’s the one when Shawn gets kidnapped and put in the trunk of the car - and the gang needs to backtrack his steps. They look up his browser history to see what he was researching and one of the last visited sites was mentalistspoilers.com.

Monk I would watch with my mom, Psych is fun but very, very campy, and Mentalist went two seasons too long.
