One of the best shows ever. Completely unrealistic, yet hugely entertaining.

Yes it is very well written with a lot of between the lines humour, and is one of my favourite shows but there is only so much you can watch.

Each episode is the same, there is not enough character development or interaction and not enough side plots.

The writers take no risks in changing their proven forumla.

Good show but Paul makes a very valid point.

Meh, I don't care if 99% of the shows have House bagging his sidekicks, having multiple guesses at the diagnosis and shotgun treatments that might kill the patient, playing practical jokes on Wilson and flirting unmercifully with Cutty, before having an epiphany to miraculously cure the patient of what turns out to be an easily solved problem caused by a multitude of coincidences.

Hugh Laurie is awesome and I never miss an episode. And Cameron and 13 are highly r00table.

Cuddy. And i'm not a big fan of 13, preferred Amber to her. But i agree about Cameron.

There's something about 13. Maybe it's the lesbian thing...

by Henry Nolonga on Mon 05 Jan 2009, 22:19

That is a plus...ok now i'm imagining her and Cameron...

Who's 13?

"I watched an episode of House last night where he was trying to discredit an old college rivals reasearch ...

The guy had published it in an Indian medical journal and House greeted him with what I'm sure was "Teri maaki"
"

Given the context, and knowing the character, it would make perfect sense for him to say that.

skully, did a marathon season 3 & 4 and up to episode 11 in season 5 so far over xmas off the back of you and I think JKL's suggestion.

Its highly addictive, blindingly well acted by HL, and yes Cameron and 13 are most highly r00table.

Brilliant stuff.

Does not mean anything in any Indian language, AFAIK. I'm sure they meant to put in "teri maaki" - sounds a lot like that with some playing around with the accent and pronunciation - but poor research has led to a bastardization of those sacred words.

Is it a mid season break for House as well in Series 5?
