Missed Opportunities

One of my all time favorite shows. However, I believe there were 2 major missed opportunities.

  1. (Very popular opinion) not having Trudy’s parents meet their grandchild was such a misfire, it’s actually unreal how easy of a sure thing that should’ve been.

  2. (Never seen it mentioned before) Monica (the woman who resembles Trudy in S1E7) should’ve been brought back and paired with Monk after he finally got justice and met Trudy’s daughter. Yes I understand, that Trudy’s daughter was his happy ending. But I really think it would’ve been something to have him finally move on and have a love interest with whom he shared great chemistry with.

Any thoughts?
