Tony Shalhoub in Monk (2002)

Goofs

Mr. Monk's 100th Case

Monk

Edit

Continuity

When the 911 call reporting the discovery of the girl who was murdered in the lobby of her apartment building is played, the caller frantically says there is blood everywhere. At the crime scene, however, the victim has been strangled, and there is no blood.
When Monk is examining the board, he moves the yellow note for "Victim #2" from the bottom-right corner to bottom-center of the picture. He then gets his inspiration, and when he's pointing it out to the captain, the yellow note is back on the bottom-right of the picture.
During the re-enactment of Kate Kindel being strangled, the shoes she is wearing disappear from her feet, then reappear.

During the re-enactment, her shoes come off. They do not reappear during the re-enactment. The shoes do appear on the body of the actual victim.
In the last scene, the digital clock goes from 3:02 to 3:07 and then back to 3:02.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

When trying to name the killer, Randy suggests Lipstick Assassin.

That would be an error because assassination is a political killing, which would not apply to these murders.

This is completely within Disher's character - to get something wrong or to be inappropriate.
While there's a reference here to Monk's 100th case, it's actually the 100th episode but only his 99th case.

However, at the end Natalie incorrectly mentions it's his 101st case (to keep him from quitting at the round number).

This count does not include any cases he worked while a member of the SF police department,.only those as a consultant in this series.

Mr. Monk actually solves two cases in this episode: the murders of the first 3 victims, who were killed by the photographer (case 100), and the murder of Kate Kindel, killed by Novak (case 101).

Revealing mistakes

When Capt. Stottlemeyer and Randy are riding in the car, they discuss the whereabouts of the search warrant. However, the document that Randy fishes out of the glove compartment and hands to Capt. Stottlemeyer is clearly labeled "Arrest Warrant."
John Turturro apparently did his scene in front of a green screen, and the lighting in the background doesn't quite match with his appearance.

Miscellaneous

Front seat headrests were removed from Natalie's car (seen as they are driving to the theme restaurant).

Errors in geography

(at around 20 mins) When talking about Trudy's death in San Francisco, the shot is of the famous Chicago Water Tower in downtown Chicago.

Character error

When Eric McCormack talks about the last victim, he states that she was 24 years old. A few moments later, in the background when he is heard talking about her again, he states that she was 27 years old.
