2. I like the way Cuddy is setting up Foreman

AND showing him how well House works outside the norm.

I also loved the end where the woman was still Munchausening out after she was saved. And the bit on the park bench was one of the best conversations I've ever seen on TV.

3. I liked that it showed that they both still have their addictions.

House with gamblings, pills, whatever. And her with her Munchausen. I also liked watching House screw with Foreman! :rofl:

4. Also, the length of time he spent arguing with Foreman

showed how much House relies on him as part of the team. He would have made the infection diagnosis much earlier if he wasn't squabbling about the cost of tests.

It's a GREAT show. I think i am going to buy season 1 for Mrs. McLargehuge's Christmas Present.

5. I was kind of mad that the show didn't get nominated

Edited on Wed Dec-14-05 12:08 PM by Shell Beau

for a Golden Globe (I think that is the award) but at least Hugh Laurie did.

That will be a good gift!! I love it. I didn't even want it to end last night.

10. At least Fox is supporting House

unlike their multiple emmy winner, Arrested Development.

6. House is truly a swine.

He's great--who'd have thought old hapless Bertie Wooster would mature into this? :toast:

7. I was watching Flight of the Phoenix the other day and

noticed he was in that movie. I love hearing him talk with that British accent b/c he sounds so natural w/o it!! He is good!

8. or better yet, that the idiot Prince George/Georgie

Edited on Wed Dec-14-05 12:13 PM by BigMcLargehuge

from Black Adder the 3rd and Black Adder Goes Forth became house.

I hope they get Steven Fry as a guest on at least one show.

14. Yes, yes!!!!

As a sick prince from another county. I want to watch Wooster and Jeeves but I've seen all the tapes I rented from the library that they have.

18. Yep.

Turns out he's a hell of an actor; I guess he wanted to expand beyond playing upper-class twits. And he certainly managed that! :applause:

12. How true!

Guess Bertie grew up after all.

I enjoyed hearing Charlie Brown Christmas music in the background. Yes, last night's show was on the best. Did ya notice how it snowed and snowed but the the flakes didn't stick. So unlike Boston (is that where it's supposed to be?)

17. Has House ever had to steal a creamer?

Does he make inappropriate bets at a children's fair?

To tell you the truth I can't watch this show. The commercials are SOOOO serious. I don't want many series and I just watched all of "Rome" so I won't watch another series for a few years.

13. First one I've watched all the way through

House would've found himself at the bottom of an elevator shaft if he was like that in real life. I don't care how fucking smart he thinks he is.

15. Obviously in real life, he'd have been gone loooong ago!!

But on the show, he is such an asset that they would probably rather get their pants sued off than let him go.
