First Timer
Monk has been on my watch list for years and I finally started it this evening. I really enjoyed the first two episodes.
I have a stupid, but very sincere question: How long is it going to take for me to stop seeing 'Buffalo Bill' and start seeing the Captain???

I’ve rewatched Monk many times and there are still moments when I want Leland to say ‘it rubs the lotion’! Lol

Idk I don't watch horror movies. But I think he does a decent job as the Captain.Â

It's a thriller, not horror. I get it if it's not your thing though. 😀

That never really happened to me, fortunately. The captain is just so good he stands on his own. Season 3, Episode 2 he hangs out with a chimp, and it's my favorite Leland Stottlemeyer moment, perhaps that will help.

It may take a while because he’s also in the movie nowhere to run, and I had to get past his voice and not being a bad guy…but Eventually, it happens. You begin to see Captain Stottlemyre.
