>watching a detective show>actor i recognize is guest starring>immediately know they were the killer
>its a gift.. and a curse
>>215093135>explains to police how he notices things others don't monk's premise is infinitely better than psych's stupid premise
>>215093135If you're watching monk to figure out who the killer was you're retarded.Furthermore the only famous killer in Monk was Malcolm McDowell
>>215093135Except for the Willie Nelson episode.
>>215093192No one said anything about famous people. If you watch enough of these shows, you start to recognize people, and it's only gotten worse. You will watch a show like The Rookie and have an extra line. Then that same actor is a suspect in law and order.
>>215093271But just because you recognize someone it doesn't mean he"ll be the killer. There are some recognizable actors who aren't killers like Danny Trejo or Sarah Silverman
>they brought it back for a covid zoom episode
>>215093135Who the fuck else is going to be the killer? A regular cast member? Of course it's the guest star.
>>215093204Or the Jason Alexander episode
>>215094606You sure about that?
>>215093135This also happened on every episode of Columbo, only there the guest stars were really famous at the time. Some even appeared in two or three episodes.
>>215094859columbo episodes literally start with them showing you who the murder is and how they commit the crime
>>215093189I thought the lady in the new dexter had that power as well. But, somewhat disappeared after all.
>>215094896kind of glad they dropped angle that tbqh
>>215094895Yes, but even in the first two minutes when the murderer prepares you know he'll be the killer because he is the guest star.Also: Some people who later became famous directed Columbo episodes, like Steven Spielberg for example.
