The way Monk smiled at Sharona wish such admiration when she said “looks like you picked the wrong two women to mess with” will always get me. He respects and admires her so much. It’s not romantic like most shows have it. They are friends. He sees her as his friend and partner in crime and genuinely cares about her. I have always loved that.

A magnet can't really work that strongly from a distance of 3 feet. The attraction power decreases very quickly with distance. When you see these electromagnets being used on TV at a car junkyard, say, the magnets only attaches to the object when touching of a few inches. Also a magnet that size would weigh > 100 lbs.

Columbo and Monk both knew there was no such thing as the perfect crime. There was always one or two clues that pointed directly to the murderer.

[@tomsmith3045]

I agree. Both shows are great. I find Monk more fun to watch, but I have to give the edge to Columbo for the character. Columbo knew who did it within a few seconds of being on scene. But it took him the episode to prove it. He also had a bit of a dark side that Monk didn't, where he would manipulate the situation to get the back guy, even if he had to break the rules. In a way, they were opposite, in that Columbo was an expert in human nature while Monk was a perfect observer of the physical world. But they were the same, in that their adversaries always underestimated them. That last part is a bit weird, now that I think about it. Imagine the bad guy, who is often at the first scene, being introduced to either of them as "this is Lt Columbo/Monk. He's been doing homicide investigations for 20 years. If he doesn't catch this person, it will be the first time he's failed. Best of luck!"
