Mr. Monk and the Election
With her daughter's school about to be closed as a cost-cutting measure, Natalie becomes a candidate in the upcoming school board election despite Monk's fears that she'll desert him if she wins. Natalie's frustrations with a jammed photocopier and other defective equipment bought at a police auction are dwarfed by fear for her life when a sniper fires into her campaign headquarters, further damaging the equipment and killing a security guard. The only clues to the identity of the sniper are an oddly folded note demanding that "Natalie Teege" withdraw from the election and a bullet from a semiautomatic rifle made in Russia. Suspicion falls on Natalie's opponent in the election, Harold Krenshaw, whom Monk knows as a fellow patient of Dr. Kroger's. Although Monk thinks that Krenshaw is lying about his friendship with Dr. Kroger and Krenshaw admits to being an excellent shot, Monk is sure that Krenshaw is innocent because he wouldn't misspell Natalie's name.

The classic American crime drama "Ironside" made waves during its original run from 1967 to 1975, captivating audiences with its compelling storylines and unforgettable characters. The series stars the legendary Raymond Burr as Chief Robert T. Ironside, a brilliant detective who becomes paralyzed from the waist down after a violent encounter. Rather than allowing this life-altering event to define him, Ironside takes on the role of a consultant for the San Francisco Police Department, showcasing not only his immense intellect but also his unwavering determination to fight for justice.
In Season 1 of "Ironside," viewers are introduced to an ensemble cast that includes talented actors such as Don Galloway as Detective Sergeant Ed Brown and Barbara Anderson as Officer Eve Whitfield. Their dynamic relationships add depth to each episode, which revolves around various intriguing cases ranging from thefts at race-tracks to murder investigations involving high-profile personalities. Each storyline is crafted with precision, drawing viewers into a world where intellect triumphs over physical limitations, making it a trailblazer for future representations of disabled characters on television.
The first season kicks off with an exciting premiere episode where a significant amount of money is stolen right under Ironside’s nose at a race-track event. As he and his team investigate this high-stakes crime, they uncover layers of deception connected to an inside man—setting the tone for the thrilling mysteries that lie ahead. Subsequent episodes explore darker themes, including serial killers targeting vulnerable women and corrupt gangsters facing their final reckoning before turning state evidence. This variety keeps viewers engaged and invested in both the overarching narrative and individual character arcs.
