I'm a big fan of the following, though:

SOA
Breaking Bad
Walking Dead
Rescue Me (ended pretty well)
OZ, (I need the box set. I miss that show)
Sopranos
Deadwood - (ended too soon)


out of all of them, I like House the most. The characters are enigmatic, House is someone I can relate with. Often times, I feel like driving my car through someone's front ****ing door. It's just a compelling and interesting show.
Hugh Laurie was absolutely perfect for this role.
Gregory House is one of the most intriguing television characters of all-time.

That's the ONLY way to send the show off.
The only way I could think that they could get away with killing him off.....is if he has to experiment on himself to figure out the cure for another patient.

An overdose would work.

Did you know that they considered signing Dennis Leary to that role?

It would have never made it.

He might've been good in the role too.
He would've been able to pull off House's "curt" side, but I'm not sure I would've believed him being as cerebral as Laurie.

Just an FYI

It's on now.

So far, it's a pretty damn good ep.
It's a little closer to the norm. House being a dick, showing Foreman up etc.
I hope the numbers improve. It's a great show.

Went to watch it on the DVR and Fox was messing up here for me, so I'll be having to watch online when it's available.

I'll have to catch it on Hulu. It's one of the very few shows I watch regularly... even in the past few seasons when I think it's jumped the shark with all the relationship crap or a fluff episode here and there, they always seem to reel it back in with a couple of great episodes.

Yeah, Laurie is really believable as someone who is as genius as House is. Leary...I don't see it. He was great in Rescue Me though.

It was an alright episode.

Agree with the bolded. Most definitely. There have been a lot of genius type TV characters before but not many have been all that believable.

I'm not sure Laurie was made for the role though. I think he's just a ****ing brilliant actor. Listen to an interview sometime. He's epic British and really pretty proper and polite. Everything on screen is acting, and it is really believable.

Yep. When you see an actor outside of their role and they're completely different than what you expect, they're great actors.

Last night's episode was pretty much a classic one.
1. Patient has health issue with emotional baggage.
2. House acts like an asshole.
3. Side stories that are unnecessary but somewhat interesting.
4. Rinse and repeat.

Next week looks ****ing awesome. Something is going to happen that may or may not begin to bring closure.

I think House has jumped the shark. Without Cuddy the show is missing something. Foreman is House light so anything he tries to do is hypocritical. He used to fight against it, but he doesn't anymore. He had no problem cheating with a married woman until he found out. Wilson isn't a big part of the show anymore except when they use him as the one sane person on the show.
