Monk, the Tony Shalhoub-starrer on USA, just wrapped its eighth and final season with the record for the most-watched episode of an hour-long series on basic cable. If you have ever seen one episode of this show, I demand you leave a comment proving you exist.
The Friday series finale of the USA Network comedy-drama drew about 9.4 million viewers, 3.2 million of them in the adults 18-49 demographic.
That represents the largest audience and demo turnout to date, not only for the show and for a USA scripted series but also for a drama series on basic cable, eclipsing the 9.2 million mark for TNT’s “The Closer.”
Damn, sounds like Monk went out on fire! But they tend to do that.
