i’m so late to discovering this show but like if you haven’t seen it, watch it; he’s still a bad ass but this time not addicted or mindlessly ridiculing his peers lol. it’s only 2 seasons, came out 2016 (it’s on hulu, there might be more options, that’s just how i watched it)

it’s like house but with secret agent energy lol and he evolves into a more wholesome doctor (always work above everything, it’s house :P)

It really doesn't have to be like in what movies or TV shows they're

Just like which one you think has a good personality or their stories or even if you think they're cute

My personal favorites are Jennifer Morrison and Lo Mutuc (Charlyne yi)

I think Jennifer Morrison is very smart to hear talk about something,actually she has a podcast about books (I read I will die in a foreign land for that and I'm very grateful for that)

And I think that I just love the quirkyness of lo Mutuc and I absolutely love paperheart, is one of my favorite movies,it has a lot of charm and a kind hearted perspective of love plus it has a weezer song sung by Michael Cera and I can't ask more

(Okay this wasn't planned to be here but I checked lo Mutuc's instagram page while I was writing this and oh my god I didn't know that Hugh Laurie and David shore were huge jerks, like really, how I didn't knew that, favorite TV show is ruined :( the only thing that could make it worse is if I find out that Jesse Spencer or RSN are jerks too)

It really feels like God's cruel joke but, hey, at least House is here to tell me it's not Lupus :)

What medical term comes to mind most readily when you think back on the show?

In 2004 Jennifer Morrison and Jesse Spencer started dating which changed the course of their characters

They originally had a minor relationship but since they were dating in real life he writers thought it was a good idea to give their relationship a mayor relevance in the show

The funny thing is that shortly after season 3 final aired they called off their engagement and ultimately broke off in 2007

So the entirely of their irl relationship they were only coworkers/friend with benefits and after they broke up irl they were a couple that even had to get married

I feel like Eva Amurri would have better been cast as a blind character or even a patient who experiences blindness as a symptom. She has this strange 100 yard stare the entire episode where it looks like shes staring right through everyone. Ive seen her in other stuff and she doesnt usually have this quirk as an actress. Also, she wasn't looking the right direction in a couple scenes. I actually kinda second guessed myself halfway through thinking I might have missed something and the character was literally blind. None of this is meant to be a joke or pun at the fact that she was 'blind' to her fiancé being homosexual in the episode.

Am I the only one that thinks Chase giving that 9 year old a peck on the lips wasn't that bad?

He ABSOLUTELY should have said no! It was a not great choice. But he genuinely thought she was gonna die and even because everything went okay, she still only had a year left to live 😭

It shouldn't of happened dgmw! But I don't think he's a weirdo for that.

​

(Just a reminder. This is the one with Katheryn Winnick who plays a girl named Eve. Eve gets raped and only wants to talk to House about it).

House was the first person to find out about Eve being raped. But it wasn't because she chose him personally to confide in him about it.

She wasn't telling anyone at first and that included House. But then she relunctantly reacted to him coming near her by yelling at him not to touch her. And then he figured it out.

I think this just as easily could have happened to any doctor who came near her during a checkup. House basically found out that she was raped by pure accident. And she didn't even tell him, he told her.

So maybe it wasn't necessarily House whom she wanted to keep on talking to but just the doctor who now knew what had happened to her.

And since the ice had already been broken between House and Eve, it would probably be more comfortable for her to just continue talking to him about her rape instead of having to start all over with a totally new doctor.

This also makes sense because Eve didn't know House or anything about him at all. So why would she choose him to be her confidant? Especially when he made it blatantly clear to her that he wanted nothing to do with that. And especially since she knew that he didn't specialize in talking to and treating trauma victims.

Unless maybe she was an empath and sensed that House was sad and so was she. So she simply felt connected to him because of that.

But she never mentioned anything about being an empath so I don't think that's it.

I don't know, what are your opinions of this episode?

Scrolled through some behind-the-scenes trivia and found out House almost had a season 9.

Would make it work after that?

Or Cameron would still think that chase changed too much?

I truly believe this scene is a testament to total breakdown and easily one of the single greatest moments in television history. What makes it so devastating isn't just the hallucination itself, it’s the bitter humiliation of complete self-delusion. House, the smartest man in every room, walks around believing he’s finally cured his addiction and found peace, entirely unaware that he is making a fool of himself while his mind slowly disintegrates. Watching his smug confidence violently strip away in real time as he realizes his entire reality was a lie, staring at the lipstick while Amber whispers right behind him is heartbreaking. It’s a tragic, painful breakdown of a brilliant man watching his own brain betray him. Unmatched writing and acting.

Vogler was terrible for the hospital, and I don't understand his argument about House costing too much

I'm rewatching House and the whole Vogler storyline bothers me more every time.

His biggest issue with House is that his department costs the hospital a ton of money while only treating a handful of patients. But wouldn't House's department actually be bringing in a ridiculous amount of money per patient?

Think about what happens to basically every patient House treats. They're admitted for like 3 days and in that time they get multiple MRIs, CT scans, blood tests, biopsies, medications, procedures, sometimes surgery, and occasionally they end up in the ICU. House will order 10 different tests just to rule something out.

Assuming the patient has decent insurance, wouldn't the hospital be billing the insurance company for all of that?

So yeah, House might only personally take on a few cases at a time, but those have to be some of the most expensive 3-day hospital stays imaginable. Meanwhile his actual department is House plus 3 fellows. How expensive can that department possibly be compared to what they're billing?

And on top of that, these are usually people who have already been to multiple doctors and hospitals without getting diagnosed. House figures out what's wrong with them in like 3 days.

But what really gets me is how insanely invested Vogler becomes in all of this. The guy is a billionaire who gave the hospital $100 million, and somehow he ends up personally obsessed with one doctor who won't wear a lab coat.

He basically starts wielding his money like a weapon. Do what I want with House or I'll take my $100 million and leave. He puts Cuddy in a position where she has to choose between doing what she thinks is right for the hospital and keeping Vogler happy. Then he uses his influence over the board to go after Wilson too, all because House won't fall in line.

At that point, how is Vogler good for the hospital? You have a billionaire threatening the hospital's leadership and board because he's in a personal pissing match with one doctor.

Obviously it's a TV show and hospital billing is way more complicated than "more tests = more profit," but Vogler constantly acting like House's department is just setting money on fire never made much sense to me.

If anything, House seems like he'd be the hospital's favorite doctor to send an insured patient to. 😂

I feel like that was the moment they came closest to kissing 😭
