Have you gotten to the Monk "trilogy" yet? The first part was pretty good, the other two......
"The Pyramid at the End of the World": You know, when you're watching the show, and you come up with a better solution to the problem faced by the characters before the show is over....
"Bill, I can't see the numbers."
"OK, Doctor, can you use your glasses to send me a picture of the dial?"
"Sure, coming right up!"
"OK, the dial is at 9867 right now, the numbers decrease as you go down."
"Got it! Thanks, Bill!" (turns dials, unlocks door)
"The Lie of the Land" was a mess. Nice acting, but what the script was asking us to believe about The Doctor..... wrong. And that godawful sappy ending with Bill's mom. Why couldn't you have had BOTH The Doctor and Bill place their hands on the alien device to break the transmission? Teamwork is good, you know....
