USA Network will integrate the Buick Lucerne sedan in five upcoming episodes of “Monk” as part of a sponsorship agreement.

The Lucerne makes its first appearance on August 4. In the show, Sharon Lawrence plays a real estate agent who hires the lead character, Mr. Monk, to investigate a scratch on her Buick. In a later episode, Mr. Monk’s assistant Natalie drives a Lucerne.

Buick will also be the exclusive sponsor of the Monk Web site, monk.usanetwork.com. The car will be integrated into one level of the “Monk’s Mind Game” on the site.
