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.
