(S08E12) Well, after the past couple of shows -- especially Monk's reunion with Sharona -- I was imagining that the final season of Monk was sprinting to the finish line, delivering some final hours that would be up there with the best ever for the series.

Then Adrian went camping. This might be one of the weakest Monks of all time. The funniest thing was the title, which was where the inspiration began and -- sadly -- ended. Nothing worked. Monk and children? No. Monk in the woods? No. Monk and the grizzly bear? Do you even have to wonder? More after the jump.

(S03E07) You ever watch an episode of Murder, She Wrote and say to yourself, "I have no idea why that guest is there. His character really doesn't add to the story?" Chances are, that person is the murderer.

Well, in this episode of Grey's, Joe's boyfriend Walter is the murderer. Of course, he really doesn't murder anyone. But he's doesn't serve a purpose in the episode until he takes a header onto a log during a camping trip and the entire male surgical staff of Seattle Grace (except Sloan... he doesn't like camping, I guess) is there to stitch up the gash in his head. What he does is slaughter three storylines at once, changing their direction and foreshadowing future events.

And all this happens when he gets in the way of a slap fight between George and Alex. Uh... yeeeaahh.... I'll explain that tidbit after the jump.
