No I don't watch it as I hate all new shows, I'll watch the reruns when it isn't as popular :p. Just kidding, I'll probably try and catch an episode as all my friends rave about it.

When I first started watching it, I loved it -- primarily, of course, because of the brilliant way Hugh Laurie inhabits that lead role. I love the way that character is written and I love the way Laurie plays it. But . . .

I have now grown weary of the show. The plot premise is worn thin for me: An elusive ad exotic life threatening illness! Conventional medecine says, "Do 'Y'! After bouncing his ball against the wall over and over, House crustily and imperiously demands his team do 'X'!

But 'X' could kill the patient!!!!! House seems not to care!! His interns, despite House's recent record of 247-1 in eerily similar situations, doubt the hell out of him!! House is oblivious to everyone else on the planet!! The interns slog on, while House sneaks some narcotics to ease his physical and existential pain!! Shot of House on his motorcycle!!

Astoundingly, House is proven right!!!! More esclamation points die in the service of this plot than were used in the entire original edition of War and Peace!!!!!one1!!

See what I mean?

That House, he's soooooo cool!

How he manages to have the exact same three days beard growth day after day, week after week, month after month, no one knows!!

And yet, were my anus fertile, I would have Hugh Laurie's baby. ;)

I still like the show, but it gets old that he is always right, yet everyone doubts him.

Probably my favorite show on TV these days, behind Nip/Tuck.

And you can find flaws with virtually any show if you put forth enough effort. I just watch shows like House on the surface, without worrying too much about redundancy or predictability. It's entertainment, not real life.

No new episodes of House (MLB playoffs) until October 31st. :(

Hugh Laurie is awesome. And the part he plays on house is awesome as well. It kind of reminds me of me, but I'm never right so I do look like a jerk, unlike him....

Nip/Tuck is awesome. I haven't seen it in awhile though, gonna have to torrent some episodes.

Sounds like two of Robin Hood's band of merry men.
