I did a quick search, and from what I could see, this is a new topic.
-First off, learn how to fucking spell. I mean, come on, the 'o' key is nowhere near the 'e' key. -Second, it's Hugh Laurie. -Third, it's emotions.
-Now enough of getting on your case about trivial spelling errors.
-Personally, I think that "House" is one of the greatest live-action shows ever created. Of course, this is only my opinion, and I'm sure other people will disagree.
-It's a good show, and it has accurate medical information as well. (As far as I know.) It blends that in with a good storyline and humor, so some people can actually learn a lot of things while watching this program. This is especially useful to me, as I plan on becoming a doctor.
-Season 1 was the best season so far, and it also contains my favorite episode, "Three Stories". Season 2 so far is OK, but I'm really not liking the storyline with House's ex-wife being there. Hopefully this show will go to a 3rd season and the episode quality will improve. (Or this current season will improve.)
-Also, there needs to be a few episodes where a patient dies. I mean, I don't wish harm on anyone (except a few people), but if House keeps saving patients, some people may get tired of this, as no matter what happens, House will always save his patient.
-Overall, it's a good show. (And my 2nd favorite episode, "TB Or Not TB" is airing tomorrow.)

Hugh Laurie gets whatever he wants from me - he wins the Pommie dickhead award for his great work in Blackadder!  "I know exactly what you mean Blackadder. Why, just the other day Prime Minister Pitt called me an 'idle scrounger', and it wasn't until aaaages later I thought how clever it'd been if I'd said - OH BUGGER OFF YOU OLD FART!" I felt incredibly sad to see poor George being smart and crippled and American - terrible waste.

I have a bad feeling "House" will get cancelled. I mean, it's second season hasn't had a lot of consecutive new episode aired. In the beginning there were like 4 straight episodes, then a 2 week break, then 1 or 2 new episodes, then a 1 week break, then a new episode, then yet another 1 or 2 week break, a new episode, AND NOW no new episodes until February 7. I wonder what other show *coughcoughFuturamacoughcough* FOX has treated like this.
In either case, it is a good show and I truly hope it doesn't get cancelled. But if this kind of crap keeps up, I really don't know.

*Season 3 Bump* I had mixed feelings about the ending last season, but as somebody who was a big fan of ST:TNG for it's entire run, obviously it takes a lot more than one weak ep to make me give up on a show. But anyway, last season ended with House's knee problem apparently being fixed, and this season opens with him running all the time. House without a cane will take some getting used to. One thing I've always found interesting about the show is the contrast between House and Wilson. On the surface, House seems like a complete ass, but as you see more of him you realise that he's actually a pretty good guy (if not a nice one). Wilson, on the other hand, seems immediately nice; polite, courteous, sensitive, generally good with people. But in terms of true character, I've found him somewhat lacking. Just in case anyone cares that much, my last comment gets spoiler tags Ok, I officially decided Wilson was an ass when House caught him living with one of his young terminal cancer patients. His reaction at the end of this ep is the final nail in that coffin. His entire argument is based on the assumption that House is not as good a doctor as he thinks he is, but his real reasons seems to me to be that he just wants House to lose a fight for once. House is a bit reckless, but he is also incredibly brilliant, and the worst thing you could do to him is to undermine his self-confidence - when you get down to it, it's really the only thing he has. Admittedly, IRL house's reckless overconfidence would be likely to kill as many patients as it saved, but it's also a key factor in enabling him to do his job so well.
Eyedol: You can tell how worried Fox is about a show by how quickly they get the DVDs to market. Season 2 hit shelves almost immediately after the last ep aired. Yeah, they're nervous. I did my part, bought season one (even though I don't know that House is a show I'll really want to go back and re-watch again and again). Mole: If you think his talents are being wasted, you clearly haven't watched much of his work on the show. He is absolutely brilliant.

Bah, it sounds to me like you're just trying to typecast him. You see him in House, and you inappropriately compare it to the kind of character you expect him to play, and are disapointed. If you watch the show for a while, you'll realise his character is actually more complex than he initially seems, and is far from one-dimensional. That said, House certainly isn't for everyone, and if it's not your thing, so be it. I actually find his character quite likeable, even if he is usually a prick. In case anyone IS a fan, or for anyone else who's just currious... LinkyAn awesome site with reviews of every episode, focusing primarily on the medicine. Written by a doctor who is a fan of the show, it makes for very interesting reading, and points out just about every flaw or inaccuracy in their medicine, however trivial. It's well researched and heavily linked to references.

House is a good show, but I rarely get to see it on Fox. I usually watch it on USA. Sometimes they have it running next to Monk and Psych, so I likey.

Tuesday night, new episode. The whole alien abduction thing was a bit... strange. I was a bit irritated at the whole "alien chip"/"Surgical Pin" thing. I saw an article once, and I don't think it's entirely impossible, but it's one hell of a coincidence... Besides, didn't the thing look a little too big to be "catching a ride" in an artery?
They made Chase look like a complete moron this week; I guess the writer just hates him or something. ("Your momma is so fat..." What the hell was that about?) but Cameron had a pretty good episode; she seems to be a bit confident.
And finally, Wilson. Oh, man, Wilson. What a raging fuckwad. I don't know if he really believes his bullshit... "'Plan' makes it sound like we're conspiring against him or something..." You are you asshole! And for those who wanted to believe he's still got good intentions, he blows it by waving the "You fucked up" in House's face every chance he got. I've really started to hate that little son of a bitch.
One last thing; I rarely laugh at House's racial jibes at Foreman, but I always laugh at Foreman's comebacks. tonight perfect example. House: Why don't I have one of these High-defs? Foreman, steal it for me. Foreman: (sarcastic) uh, sure, I'll call up some of the 'homies'

Hugh Laurie went into his audition for House using his accent and the panel didn't twig that he wasn't American until after he got the part - the only other big thing he'd done in America at that point was the dad in Stuart Little (also American). How they hadn't seen any Blackadder, or a Little Bit of Fry and Laurie, or Jeeves and Wooster is beyond me, but hey. That would be the cue for more "stupid Americans" remarks

I really love to watch House. It is my favorite show of sometime now. It is one of the only things I cant live without on tv. As for Hugh he also played a part in one of the Dalmations movies.. I think it was 101 Dalmations with Glen Close. He was her helper. Health Tip: Stay away from diet pills like Lipozene Day, MediFast Liquid, Lipovox Reviews, and Lipo6
