House, M.D.

aside from the james earl jones killing shit, i have kind of enjoyed having the old gang back together.

Oh snap, it's a House, M.D. holiday marathon on USA. Yesssss.

I'm still not cool with Cameron being gone. ;_;

Yeah I really didn't like that whole storyline and didn't think it was very believable that she would leave Chase over that or in that way. That said, she made me cry when she said goodbye to both him and House. Damn her!

so far, this is the worst season yet

4 > 1 > 2 > 5 > 3 > 6

i am beginning to like this show

season 4, huh?

the episode from the perspective of wilson was insane - how his apt was just totally filthy and jacked up all of a sudden, and that insane scene with the old hispanic man shouting nonsense in spanish while house accused him of being a tennis player...?

i am beginning to like this show

Am wondering if this is for the same reasons that I have taken more of an interest in this show, since they are no longer talking in fancy medical gibberish so much as in stuff you learned like a week before you saw the episode sometimes.

Or, you know, all of the sassmouthy remarks, those are also fun.

The doctor who does medical reviews of House episodes had the most awesomely corny illustrations for the Wilson episode.

no that is pretty much exactly it, it's fun to follow along now! esp the neuro stuff

Does anyone else get the impression last night's episode launched a lot of House/Wilson slash?

More like inspired by a lot of House/Wilson slash, I'd say.

They played Maggot Brain at the end. Very nice.

That actually made me laugh out loud, which I suspect wasn't the intended effect.
I do watch the show for laughs though, so it was fine by me.

Following it up with a show tune from Chorus Line was definitely done for laughs, so I think your reaction was dead-on!

this was the best episode of this season so far. and by best i mean funniest.

i didn't cringe once!

My godsister is on tonight so I will be watching for the first time ever... what can I expect?

if you've seen that new sherlock holmes movie, it's like that but less fisticuffs.

Is she playing the psycho patient?

patient ill ---> House indifference ----> wrong diagnosis makes things worse ----> B-plot/character exploration leads to Wilson saying something ----> House figures it out around the :48 minute mark.

yep, she went off the deepend.

Expect her to withhold the truth several times, prolonging the delivery of inaccurate diagnoses.

Also when House figures it out he'll stop talking in the middle of a sentence and just walk away from Wilson/Cuddy/whoever.

... leading to him being forgiven whatever transgressions he's being lambasted for, just on account of his brilliance.

^ always my favorite part of the episode.

I thought that was the best episode so far, psycho patient

love spanish-zinging house <3

shasty, yr godsister reminds me of tricia helfer!

I was hoping would put a pillow over the head of that pshyco, just like they did to James Earl Jones.

Also, 13 is so smoking hot.

^^ LOL I finally watched this last night, and I said to my wife, "Well, 13 could always just ask Chase to kill her."

I actually took a break from "House" during the horrible Chase/murder story. I finally decided to catch up this week and watched all the episodes I missed since then. The show really picked up again after Cameron left, and in particular all the episodes that aired since New Years have been amazing.

So... was that the extent of Cameron's return? DUD.

so, should i start watching again?!? i gave up during the Chase-murders-Mugabe story arc.

Has been excellent in the time since that, but tonight was a real step backwards (shame too, since the episode was directed by Hugh Laurie).

I liked this one more than usual.

This was terrible, and I will stop watching this show if it continues in this direction.

they should stop mentioning chase's murder of james earl jones. what a dumb idea.

This is probably only interesting to photo/video nerds, but WOW

Canon 5D Mark II used to shoot entire House season finale, director says it's 'the future'
By Vladislav Savov posted Apr 13th 2010 8:02AM

May 17, folks. That's the date when the grumpy doctor you wish you were and the snazzy camera you wish you owned will join forces on American network television. The final episode in this season's run of House has been shot exclusively using Canon's 5D Mark II, and the show's director Greg Yaitanes has been taking questions about the experience on Twitter. PetaPixel have helpfully collated the Q&A session into a coherent pseudo-interview, which you'll be able to find at the source below. The major takeaway is that the crew liked the experience and didn't have to do an overwhelming amount of work to adapt to the different shooting method. Guess after SNL and its own movie, the 5D Mark II just had to go and do a guest appearance on its favorite TV show.

Taub is an asshole (but tbf he and his wife should've had this conversation before getting married).

Our DVR cut out early tonight, did Taub pull away from the girl or did he keep kissing her?

He didn't pull away, they left together in her car.

Ah, thanks.

He nailed her, at least thats what was implied.

Also, if that patient was 35 yo, then Im 17.

This show continues to suck this year. So disappointing.

SPOILER FREE POST

Lots of good things about this finale, up to the very very end when they bring back the least convincing, most nonsensical element of the show. I have never bought that connection, and probably never will.

Really? I thought the finale was terrible straight through, and the ending was totally unbelievable and insane.

SPOILER-ESQUE

It's like they're decided to just start writing for the shippers + fanfic'ers.

Yeah, best episode of the season until it suddenly wasn't.

Ok cool, I'm glad I'm not alone here.

My wife liked the ending, but I don't think she appreciated my audible groan.
