House, M.D.; does anyone else watch this?

I searched for a thread about House on here but I didn't find anything. Anyone else watch this show? It's Tuesday on FOX. I like it, I think House is funny because he's a friggin bastard. Anybody else catch this show?

I love House.
Greatest show on FOX as of late.

Like, it's cool how sarcastic he is, and he knows how to push peoples buttons, but for the good of the case.

It is an awesome show...I'm intrigued as to what is going to happen on the show each and every time I watch. I enjoy his (Dr. House's) cynicism, sarcasm and wit. I find him to be hilarious. The writers of this show have a great thing.

I watched it religiously when it first came out, and I really like the House character. However, I think the show got stagnant way too fast. Every episode was "Someone comes in with a mysterious, life-threatening illness, and after trial and error, House comes up with some brilliant idea that saves the patient". I know there are other sub-plots, like his pain med addiction, but the sheer repetition of the main plot kind of put me off. Now, I only tape it if I'm not taping anything else.

I have a question for those who watch it....last week's episode (I think) was about the woman who they supposed had some kind of sleeping sickness...and were trying to get the hubby to admit he'd had an affair.

I didnt get to see the last 10 minutes...does anybody remember how it ended?

yeah.. This show was a complete shocker.. The Husband insisted he had never cheated... the wife did the same... eventually they did the treatment as if one of them had cheated...... and she woke up.... the husband left her on the spot..no questions asked.... turns out it was the husbands friend that he was jogging with in the begining of the show.....

Love the show. Hate the new Chairman of the Board.

The girl can't be dismissed that quickly. There has to be a further fumbling attempt at a love interest.

I like this show a lot.

I'm just waiting for the big showdown between the boss man and House. With the last new episode taken into consideration, it has to be soon.

I admit the main plot usually follows a pretty predictable path, but I watch it for the odd 'free clinic' patients he gets i.e. the girl who has sex while sleepwalking, the overweight gal with the big, freakin' tumor and when he told Santa to have a smoke to cure his 'bowel problem. Good stuff there.

I absolutely love this show. Hugh Laurie does a fantastic job as Dr. House and is probably my favorite tv character along with James Spader's Alan Shore. I'd say this is by far my favorite new show of the season and I'm really glad it's set for another season. And, the fact that I'm watching it religiously now says a lot because it conflicts with Scrubs, which, in my opinion, is one of the best comedies of the past several years. My VCR recently gave up on the whole "being functional" thing, so I'm always in an unfortunate predicament on Tuesday nights.


As for the show's plot being redundant, I was never put off by the fact that the formula of "patient is admitted with weird ailment, House and team make guesses that are wrong then House realizes something and saves the day" has been used with each show I've been able to catch. The show is a medical drama, but the way it works is much more like a detective or CSI style show than ER, and just like those detective shows, one can assume the plot will at least loosely follow that formula.


I really enjoy the rest of the cast and I think they all play off of House really well, and I'm really curious as to what will happen with Dr. Cameron (the doctor who resigned in the last episode). I hope she sticks around, because as well-written, interesting and funny as the show is, it doesn't hurt to have a ridiculously pretty woman in the cast, heh.

I'm also a big fan of House. He says the kind of blunt, truthful things to people that most of us don't have the cajhones' to say to people in real life. It makes the show REAL funny and that's why I watch.

It sucks that one of them must go. My money was on the one that House actually picked, but I wasn't expecting him to be a snitch for the new Big Boss Man.

I watch it every Tuesday when it's new. It's one of the 4 TV shows that I watch, which says a lot - I like it I'm really hoping Dr. Cameron isn't gone for good. First, because her character really provides a lot of personal insight into House, and it creates a good dynamic, but also because she's really cute. Not to mention the actor that plays her is basically from my hometown

I'm pretty positive the next episode is the last one for Vogler.

Same here on all counts. I love watching the show, and it's one of the few that I watch any more. And I'm also hoping that Dr. Cameron isn't leaving. It's always funny seeing how awkward she and House can get around each other. That, and she's cute.

I enjoy this show and catch it whenever I can. It's pretty good about getting the details right medically.
I'd echo the criticisms about House following the same pattern every week. I don't even think any of their patients of died yet. Considering these are supposed to be cases no one else can solve, that seems unrealistic.

Thanks for correcting me SecretMethod70. I really have to go back and get caught up on this show.
Am I the only one who finds it hard to believe that a girl like Cameron would fall for a guy like House? There's got to be something wrong with her.

totally agreed....too bad the jerks at the networks decided to play both at the same time


I'm about 3 and a half hours from being absolutely torn between House and Scrubs.

Well, you can look at it two ways: he's an ass and offends everyone at some point, or the guy is a freak because he's willing to continue despite the great risk to his life due to his current condition. I'm thinking that it's a combination of the two meant more as a "what the hell are you thinking? Don't you know you're near death and this will only hasten it?"

Yeah, I kind of took it that way.

I really like this show. House is by far my favorite, but Wilson and especially the dynamic between the two made last night's episode that much more enjoyable.

Now that House has gotten his date out of the way (the bald-faced realism during the restaurant scene was delightful) I wonder just how far the 'love interest' angle will be taken?

House is easily my favorite new show of this season. I've been hooked ever since the first episode I saw, and this is my most anticipated show for next season.


Did anyone catch tonight's season finale? I think they ended their first season very well and it was really nice to finally get to see another side of House. A lot was explained regarding his leg in the past couple episodes, and we finally got to see a glimpse of House as a loving boyfriend and a large look at his past and the woman he's still in love with. Man, I love this show.

For those that missed the finale:
Spoiler: last night was a continuation from the previous week. they found that the husband is in good health but his brain is dying. house had an idea to give him some hemoglobin but if he does and his guess is wrong he will die before the night is over. so they injected him with a substance to read his brain activity, they put him in a CAT scan and asked him some questions, he got agitated cuz House was asking the questions so he started ranting about how he took the wife on a honeymoon to paris and blah blah. so House talked to the wife and she said they never been to paris, so they looked at the pictures of his brain and realized on that question, his brain thought he was telling the truth but he wasnt...he was having delusions. so they realized what illness he had but to make 100% they need a urine sample when he was having his mentalattack..just then the patient was not able to feel his legs/hands he was becoming paralyzed. he brain was dying faster than they thought. and he didnt want to be injected with the hemoglobin. so house said fine. the wife wanted him to take it so they argued and house was going to inject him but the 3 doctors wouldnt let him, so he faked like he wouldnt then stabbed him in the leg. the injection was supposed to induce another attack. in the commotion his tube to his urine came undone so house drew urine straight from his bladder. He tested it and they found out what was wrong with him and treated him. he made a recovery but they want to keep him for observation. while he is in the hospital the wife applied for the job of Counsel for the hospital, but she would only take it if House approved. he reluctantly approved and went home. while at home he tried to walk w/o his cane but could barely manage 1 step. it went off with him sitting on his piano's bench and just staring into the camera.


Now what is the deal with his leg i didnt watch all of the prequel to the season finale..

Sela Ward's character, the girlfriend, authorized an operation which removed a large muscle mass from Dr. House's leg. He was suffering from "muscle death" due to lack of circulation, which started the deterioration. It was either clean out they dying tissue, or amputate the leg. She signed the consent forms when he went into a coma. I do not recall what happened after that. I also missed the finale. Damn.

Yep. So House talked the doctor to put him into a coma to sleep off the worst of the pain and hopefully recover. Once he was out, Stacy (Sela Ward) acting on House's behalf had them do the other surgery that subsequently caused the limp. A surgery, House himself and previously declined.

The more I watch this, the more I like it. Sure he's caustic and sarcastic, but he's so funny.

That opening scene where he drugged Stacy's new husband was fantastic.
