I definitely see your point about how the next few episodes might be illogical, but let's see what happens
It's the last season of House, and I've been watching it since the series started, so I'm not giving up on it yet (despite its ups and downs) ^^

Its speculated that it might be, but it hasn't been confirmed as of yet.

haven't watched house in like 2 years, but saw this episode, and despite the location, the show is still completely the same lol

That's always been the complaint about House for the past two or three years. They really, really need to change the formula entirely.

If house leaves, the show dies.
Not to mention how it was speculated that he will leave like two seasons ago. But, no it hasn't been confirmed. But i just hope they'll end the show before its really too late.

I was underwhelmed. Compared to the two last season opening episodes, this one really had nothing at all (ok, the doctor was hot). No pranks, no witty remarks, no cool characters (S6E1 had Alvie, the shrink and his love interest which all were pretty cool) no character development in House himself, no new storylines pretty meh. I really hope it get's better- ending on a bad season wouldn't do the series any justice.

They could always use a better cast and less one dimensional characters (besides him) but ultimately it's about him being the way he is.

Nothing is confirmed, but from what I have gathered at tv.com, the show is getting expensive because of wages. Some of the actors are getting cut in number of episodes to keep costs down and also taking heavy wage-losses. Crisis it is! At the same time last season gave the worst ratings so far for the series and because of that they were already hesitant to buy season 8. As far as I know Cuddy is already finding new opportunities, while House, Wilson and Foreman are uncertain about their will to continue.

House is all about Hugh Laurie ... no one would watch it, if he wasn't there ... You can see that in all the episodes where the other characters do not appear. He's the sole reason that the series still exists.

Exactly. So why bother with the formality of a patient of the week, or a diagnostic team? The House character and Hugh Laurie are strong enough that they should just break the mold.
I would watch a show about House and Wilson in a third world country solving mysteries or something. They've basically done almost everything you can do in the context of a hospital.

Do we need spoiler tags in this thread? There's already another general House thread.

The new doc is a hottie. Already a great season in my books.
|
Just watched the new episode, it was amazing for me. Love the setting and the clinic doctor.
I wouldn't mind a few more prision episodes at all, but seems like it's not going to happen.
Still one of the better shows on right now, can't wait for the next episode.
Also, Hugh Laurie is totally carrying the show, and I'd almost prefer for him to go into theoretical physics and solve it.
|
I really loved the first episode, was positively surprised!
|
Second episode summary added.
Overall a decent episode. I liked that they tried to shy away from just the typical patient formula, it worked quite well with everything else going on.
Although a little odd at times, Dr. Chi Park seems like a nice addition; almost acting as a Dr. Masters replacement, yet not being preoccupied by every moral dilemma. I'm just waiting and hoping for an episode where she snaps on House (it WILL happen!).
Also, I think I might have to start a running tally for every mention of Lupus this season.
|
I think the second episode was a little disappointing. In my opinion they could have gotten more out of the whole prison thing, he got out of there too fast and easy if you ask me. Also what will happen to that doctor in the hospital, she was very interesting (a lot like house himself), was that just for one episode?
Things just got back to "normal" way to fast if you ask me.

The thing about this tv series is, if they change House and make him something else viewers will lose interest, you can't just change the main char of a very popular tv series and "hope for the best", it just won't work. This show was/is ( you can debate ) so popular because House is like he is, so changing it makes no sense. I personally like the newer seasons much more and I hope they bring Taub back, he was by far my favorite char on the show.

i'm perfectly happy just watching house be house for eternity.
