6. I really don't think it added anything to the story-line, in fact I
thought it detracted from it.

8. I agree! I could see that if she had been sexually abused that
it could have provided some purpose, but it seemed pointless to me.

9. Even House said something similar
and as they search through the various causes for symptoms it made sense in last night's story.

12. I recorded it and watched with my boyfriend but I fell asleep
he said it was the greatest thing he has ever seen and that I have to watch sometime when I'm not so tired.

I really like that show.

:hi:

13. It is a great show! I am so glad there are some
good shows now on TV. I really like the sarcastic Dr. House. He's a jerk, but he somehow cracks me up. :hi:

14. Oh I loved the part when the shotgun shell rolls across the table...
and falls off. And William Katz ex-wife bends down to pick it up and when she stands up she is a monster. That always freaks me out. And the monster in the closet was cool too.

16. I liked the bit when Gramps shoots the ghost and dust comes out of the
wound.

Oh wait, that's House 2

22. It was great! One of the best episodes yet!
And I especially loved the ending... though I'm not sure that right away in season 2 is the time to start having House "let it out". But it was heartening to see him enjoy himself for a change.

This show is consistently fucking excellent.

23. I am saving for the season 1 DVD so I can watch the
six Vogler episodes over and over and over and over again. That was just an amazing run in the middle of an amazing season.

24. I agree. The writer's are really going to have to
stay on the ball to keep it great. I wonder where these stories come from.

25. I hate this show. Does anyone else think it goes over the edge in
trying to be totally "un-pc"?

26. Not really. Just Dr. House, but that is almost what
I like about him. The rest of the cast is pretty PC.

27. eh - I just don't like it. Although, I can see why people would like it.
I'm just not a big fan of hospital dramas anymore. Seen my fair share going back to Trapper John, MD.

Ditto the crime dramas. Some of them make me physically sick now.

28. There are a lot of them around.
I never really got into any of them, so House for me is kind of fresh. But I totally get your point about crime and medical shows.

29. Apparently the medical part was way over the top. Far fetched.
Way too Hollywood for hubby. I hope House retains the medical credibility it had last year. This week, it didn't.

And I really like House. Hugh Laurie is great in the part.

30. Yeah,temporarily killing a 9 year old who is
already terminally ill with cancer and has a huge tumor on her heart to remove a blood clot is somewhat farfetched. Last weeks wasn't far-fetched though. But I hope it doesn't get ridiculous either.

32. I had never seen it before
but I was into it.

House is an asshole, but that's what made the show thought provoking.
