House MD is one of my personal favorite series. The show is currently running into its fifth season and I have been a regular viewer of the series. Honestly, I missed out on the first season and have followed it from second season onwards. But since then, it has become one series that I prefer the most. Frankly, it is Hugh Laurie, whom I like the most in the series. It is his works and his friendship with Wilson that I enjoy watching the most. Besides, the cases that they take up, being a doctor, on the show their personal life is what, that is of interest to me.
With the series currently into its fifth season, one thing that I would like to say is that the series has got better with each season. Till now, this season has probably turned out as the best one. No, I am not saying that the others were not good, but just that this one is better than the previous one. Just like the way you can say that second was better than the first. This season, till date the house has taken up number medical cases and has provided solace to many. The best thing about the series is the way the treat their patients. Now, in the last episode of the series, the way house team goes to the house of the patient, because he refuses to take ailment in the hospital, was just brilliant. What is also amazing is that they have treatment even for the strangest disease on earth.
Anyways, on the whole it is a remarkable series. The best thing about the series is that you never know what they have for you in the next episode. I just hope that this series which is so different from the other doctor series keeps entertaining us for a long-long time.
It’s wonderful, I was checking out the list of Emmy nominees released by Academy of Television Arts and sciences and found ‘House MD’ on the list of best drama series. But in the same category, there is another medical drama, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’. I think chances of House alone to be on the list were more. I think ‘House MD’ is far better in quality than ‘Grey’s Anatomy’. Dr. House’s strange and unacceptable ways of treatment makes the show different and more happening than the ‘Grey’s Anatomy’. Moreover ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ is not a pure medical drama as it concentrates more on the personal lives of the doctors and interns and their relationships with other doctors and their patients. Exploring interpersonal relations is part of other dramas too, so there is not much difference except that this one is played out in a hospital.
On the other hand ‘House MD’ is a real medical drama as most of the times it deals with critical patients and viewer gets involved with the each and every detail of his disease down to the point when Dr. House finds solution then eventually the treatment of the patient. Moreover the case is wrapped up in a single episode.
There is no need to hang on until the next episode to know about the developments of that case. Each episode of the show is different from the previous episodes and complete in itself. At the same time they are part of the one big whole. One can miss one episode without losing out much on drama.
I still download and watch the all episodes of House every weekend and never get bored of watching it again and again. I truly believe that it should win an Emmy Award this year. I am eagerly waiting for the next season.
I can write dozens of words about Hugh Laurie playing Dr. Gregory in ‘House‘. I am a huge fan of his especially for his role as Dr. House. He really deserves this praise. Yesterday I was .reading in news about him, as being a fan I keep a close eye on his activities. Believe me, I found many other fans like me, and that included media persons too, who keep on digging more about Laurie.
I think I have some special connection with Laurie I was born in 1982 and he started his career in the same year. In Hollywood he is called the actor with posh voice. I liked him in the movie ‘101 Dalmatians’, as Jasper, who was hired to steal puppies. But he finally succeeded in winning hearts in 2004 only for his role of Dr. Gregory.
I read something interesting about his auditions for this role yesterday. David Shore, the show creator, shared a bit with the reporters. While auditioning for the role of Dr. House, Laurie assumed American accent, which was so convincing that executive producer Bryan Singer, who was unaware at the time about Laurie’s nationality (Hugh Laurie is a British actor ), pointed to him as an example of just the kind of compelling American actor he had been looking for. Rest, as we all know, is history.
I also read in another article about Laurie that the role was for 34 years old Dr. House and the show producers never wanted House to be young. So they were not sure about Laurie’s selection as his looks are too chiseled. But see, we can’t imagine Dr’ House’s role played by somebody else, in fact nobody else will suit the role. He is simply perfect. Do you guys agree with me?
Although everybody is waiting for the season four to come, but fans of the show have voted the show as one of the top shows in the list of Prime Time Shows list. The show comes at number 8 with the record of 8.63 million viewers. The list is based upon the Nielson Media Research for June 16-22. ‘America’s Got Talent’ is ahead of it with 12.78 million viewers. But ‘House MD’ is from a different category of TV shows. I had the view that medical drama would be few people’s choice but the data opened my eyes.
It’s good that beside me, there is a huge number of people too who like the show and keep voting for its popularity. I like Dr. Gregory House’s character the most. I like his unique ways of diagnosis. Sometimes he appears a bit harsh and rude, but I like his unconventional and bold ways of treatment. Moreover he makes quick and right decisions. He goes to any extent while he is on duty and can solve those cases too which other doctors can’t understand. His character has been portrayed as one with dominant personality; after all he is a boss. No doubt Hugh Laurie is playing it to perfection.
I personally like the character of Dr. House in the show, as he just increases the heart beat of the viewers sitting at home along with the patient on screen. The viewers keeps biting their nails whenever he is taking risks with the patient’s life and finally succeeds and proves every that person in the hospital wrong who objected over his so called unsafe ways of treatment. Sometimes I wonder whether the real life doctors too have this kind of adventurous routine in their hospitals. I am desperately waiting to see Dr. House once again.
Living the Dream was a terrific episode with many humorous and introspective moments.
Okay, episode had some good individual scenes and overall it was good. What we had on this episode? Three storylines, first was typical, second was a little bit old, and the third never up to its potential. The biggest bit of this episode was House’s kidnapping.
My favorite scene was the differential by Soap opera when House treats that famous soap opera star. He believes that patient’s in serious condition. But there are no symptoms to show that. Thirteen’s dialogue was superb, “I think I dated that nurse, though’. Foreman is trying to reassure Cuddy and yeah, of course, has done a great job keeping House in line so far. What I liked most about the storyline was Amber’s diagnosis about Wilson who does everything for the woman he’s with.
You know what I like most about Gregory House? His ability to finely tune the humor, the irony, and the seriousness in his character. Lisa and House played well and finally got how much she believed in him. So, the episode was an unforgettable one. My best picks from the episode:
Dr. Cuddy: I’m taking back the TV. House: I saved his life! Dr. Cuddy: That wasn’t the deal. House: But the contract clearly stated “no takesy-backsies.”
Dr. Foreman: You kidnapped him? House: It’s sweet that I haven’t lost the ability to surprise you.
What do you say?? Wanna know about upcoming episode. Okay, it’s entitled ‘House’s Head (1)’ being aired on 5-12-2008. Click to get it now. Stay tuned.
The first image we saw on episode was- a picket line. Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital’s nurses are on strike and meanwhile, Jeff, a nurse’s husband collapses. That nurse and her husband are forced to cross the picket line.
House discovers a guy in the severely under-staffed emergency room who’s not angry at having to wait. At that moment, House decides that his constant niceness is a symptom that must be treated. He takes the case and the man tests positive for syphilis. On the other hand, Kumar decides that if niceness is a symptom, then, meanness should also be. He finds phial of House’s blood and tests it.
Results are positive with syphilis and Kumar tells everyone about it including Chase and Cameron. Actually, House doesn’t have syphilis; he just placed the vial there in order to see if the kids would test it. House completely enjoys pretending to take his syphilis medication. Amber and House fight over Wilson and take the matter to Cuddy. According to her, House is wasting his time and performance reviews are due.
For me House-Wilson-Amber triangle was enjoyable. Kumar realizes that House doesn’t have syphilis after all, but a parasite that gives syphilis tests a false positive. Chase’s attempting to find if Cameron slept with House. House and Amber are left changing bed pans, while Wilson just simmers. You can watch the episode here for free.
My fave picks from the episode:-
Dr. Cameron: He’s just… House: Happy. I gotta stop this before it spreads.
House: Cuddy is going to look everywhere but the place she wants me to be. Dr. Chase: I assume Wilson was busy? House: Again. Dr. Chase: With Amber? House: Again.
