I always thought of Shalhoub as a solid 5’10” on Monk. Today, likely close to an inch less.

Monk got arrested in one episode, and they took a mugshot of him.

He's probably in shoes there, so looks pretty much as listed.

It's true he did ofteb the same or even edging Ted Levine in Monk but I think Levine wasn't usually standing tall a lot, frequently assuming a slightly slumped and hands at the hips posture as he gets exasperated.

Tony Shalhoub gets the complete 5’10” from me, for his peak height. In early episodes of Monk, Shalhoub looks very similar in height to Ted Levine, in fact, I see Shalhoub appearing as the slightly taller man in scenes! However, I think Levine was taller than Shalhoub in real life, maybe Shalhoub had advantageous footwear for Monk. In Barton Fink, I got the impression that Shalhoub was no less than a full 5’10”.
However, I suspect Shalhoub is closer to 5’9” than 5’10” today. Rob, do you think Shalhoub could only measure a flat 5’9” now?

He seemed an inch and change shorter than his co-star, Ted Levine, on Monk. Seems a good listing, but could also seem really close to Levine in some episodes, so the full 5'10 is also possible.

I always felt short because my dad is 5'11 and my brother is 6'0.5 but I manage 5'9.5 with excellent posture. I doubt this guy would be my heoght maybe 5'8 or 174cms

I just finished binge-watching Monk with my wife after about a month and have to say he really did look 5'10" or very near it (5'10" is what's claimed in one episode when he becomes a fugitive). A lot of times, with good posture and his suits, Shaloub could seem a bit taller than his actual height. Also, through those years, he really gave a masterful performance.

I was expecting him to be about 5'6". He gives off a short-man impression in "Monk". lol

Perfect listing Rob! As Mr Tempus pointed out, a weak 5'10 can look both tall and short, depending on circumstance.

Sometimes he seems a little bit short and sometimes he looks a little bit tall compared to others, so yeah 5'9.75 seems right.

When I stood next to him he was a solid 5'9. Couldn't tell what type of shoes he had on though.

I went to school with him and stood next to him many times. I am 5.9 and I'd say 5.8 would be correct.

On Wings, Tony looks about 2 or more inches shorter than Steven Weber. If Weber really is 6 feet tall, then Tony really is about 5'10. Only problem is that some people claim that Weber is really around 5'10, which would then make Tony around 5'8 or maybe even a little less.

Tony is typically the kind of man for whom "height" is of no importance at all!

Shalhoub and Tucci also costarred in the 1996 movie "Big Night," though I haven't seen it in a while.

Yes surprising. I just watched him in an X Files episode from 1994. He looked at least four inches below Duchovny and only a few inches taller than Anderson. Maybe lifts now he has more stardom

Stanley Tucci, who's listed at 5'8" on this site was on Monk tonight. Shalhoub was noticably taller. Something not right here. Shalhoub doesn't look like a 5'10"-5'11" guy to me on screen. Of course I've never seen him in person so he could be one of those people whose looks smaller on screen that what they really are.
Could Tony be wearing lifts or is Tucci not really 5'8"?

Well in first Season (first episodes) Monk asked the captain about his height. Captain said 5'11" (after the tried to convince he is 6'1"). Monk is a little shorter. I think 5'9.5" - 5'10" is real, except I am wrong, which you know, I am not ;) (For Monk fans)

I've only watched Monk on my handheld TV.....granted, it doesn't get very good reception. But I think you should adjust that height to 9.5 inches. I think your'e being too generous.
