I'm addicted to this show. I know it's predictable, but I love it. Hugh Laurie is incredible.

Yea, I love him in Stuart Little.

I love that fact, that the plot is completely formulaic (disease nobody understands confuses doctors, they guess a couple of wrong things, patient gets worse, then inspiration strikes house and his genius saves the day) yet this is irrelevant to what the show is about, as it is a character driven show. It really is about genius, and how much of an a-hole you can tolerate to be around it, and about how much the ends can justify the means. Also it is hilarious, which helps. One of my favorite things house does is when he blackmails a surgeon by saying he will tell the man's wife he is cheating on her unless he performs the operation, so he performs the operation and house tells the wife anyways smile.gif.

Best show on television right now, IMHO.

I think the character-drivenness (lol) could be taken to a whole new level if they varied the plot more. How does genius (in this case) deal with the death of his patients? How does that affect his future patients?

Fair point. But that the show can be so good in spite of its formulaicness (see I can make up words too smile.gif ) says something about ... well something.

This is probably my favorite show right now. The characters and teh dialogue have really made it into a great show. Listenin to the random comments is hilarious.

House is good, but unfortunately it's opposite Scrubs. More people need to watch Scrubs.

Scrubs has even taken some shots at House in recent weeks.

I agree...house is kind of in between scrubs and ER. I like scrubs but i dont think it can compete against house

New episode on tonight.

That new one pwned.
MapleLeafs
The funny thing is, that if CBS didn't move The Amazing Race to Wednesday night, then I probably still would have never seen House. The wife and I were watching American Idol a few weeks ago and House came on after it. This was the time when we would usually switch over to Amazing Race, but we decided to watch House. It was the episode where the husband and wife had the twisted sex fetish and she was poisoning him. We've been hooked ever since and I swear it's the best show on TV right now.

Definately deserves it.

But it looks like he ends up killing the guy...wonder how they'll pull that off without him getting booted from the hospital.

I havn't seen that. I doubt he kills the guy though. From some of the show critics who've already seen it say it's one of the best episodes.

cant wait for next season. i am glad that the finale had a little more to it than regular episodes
Mattnxtc
Dont know if anybody saw tonights episode. It was a rerun but it was the episode where House is teaching the med students. This may be one of the best episodes of House

Really?? I thought the finale of season 2 was pretty solid. The season 3 premiere was pedestrian at best.

i was reverse. if the finale for season 2 wasn't just a gigantic hallucination telling him to get a ketamine-induced coma, it'd have been fine. i just hated that we spent 57 minutes to end up in the exact same place as the beginning of the show. fine episode, everyone was good, but the idea i didn't like.
the premiere of season 3 i loved. he's the most interesting character on tv right now and hugh laurie is the best actor on tv right now. the actual case was basically irrelevant to what house was going through, but just served as a story springboard. i thought it was a solid opening to hopefully a very solid 3rd season.

My 2 favourite episodes were

1. House teaching the med students.

2. The 2 part episode where Foreman almost died.
