You can catch up with the entire season of Monk so far and a few previous episodes today, although they are in reverse order for some reason. The big news of the night is the return of Jordan Collier on The 4400. Where has he been? Billy Campbell, the guy who plays him, has been on a sailing trip around the world? What will his return mean seeing how he was thought to be dead? Will you be watching tonight?
