House is back to his manipulative ways, and the patient was actually interesting. However, this wasn't the first episode in which a "positive-characteristic-is-a-symptom" episode occurred (see "No More Mr. Nice Guy"). However, I did enjoy the return to the roots and this episode overall. I hope there are more like it. There'll likely be another episode for each team member House wants back. | ||

There'll likely be another episode for each team member House wants back. ive always felt house was at its best before it turned into a medical drama. at the start (for me) it felt like a drama, which happened to be in a hospital. houses need to solve puzzles, foreman dealing with his racial issues and stigmas, cameron's daddy issues and the mysterious past between cuddy house and wilson were all great story arcs. but then too much got revealed about the past, the staff kept coming and going which feels so unnatural, cuddy and house getting together etc etc i felt have weakened the show. im actually excited that the new asian doctor is in the show purely because shes he first female character who its possible for them to maaaybbe avoid turning into a pure sex object. i still enjoy the show, but since season 1 and 2 its really lost some of its edge  | ||

That was Chase. Also, House has daddy issues himself, but these come up far less often than Chase's daddy/alcohol issues. All of the previous girls House personally hired had at least one reason of "Hot": Cameron = She's hot. But also "beautiful" and "doctor" do not mix unless person is damaged Thirteen = She's hot. House manipulated Cuddy to get her. But also because of her secrets Adams = She's hot. But also because she's working for free. Terzi (from S04 "Whatever it takes") = She's hot. Really, that's the only reason. Fired in the same episode. Some of the girls on his team were foisted upon him: Masters = Cuddy's choice. At least one woman needs to be on the DDX team. Park = Foreman's choice. Neurology dept firing and House's return coinciding forces Foreman's hand. These two women are not portrayed in the show as being "hot" (but Masters, played by Amber Tamblyn, is actually pretty hot in "The Ring" and "Joan of Arcadia" - just not portrayed as hot on House. She's portrayed as the frumpy dressed, socially awkward, med-school-is-my-life, honest-to-a-fault geek). So if you want main characters not portrayed as sex objects on the show then make sure an outside person forces her on the DDX team! House went through a reset for season four (team all fired/quit), six (mental institution), and eight (jail). I hope House doesn't keep resetting though. It's getting a bit old. I'm a total House addict, so I know most of the character histories. I'll keep watching until the series dies for sure. BTW, my fav episodes tend to be the darker ones like S07E11 "Family Practice" and S05E09 "Last Resort". These really bring out the worst & best of every character with how intense they are. | ||

I'm gonna say...6 episodes. as long as we get to see Adams in a scantily clad outfit just short of nude, I am okay with any duration of time. | ||

Yeah so what the patient was dying, he just figured that he still had more important things to do. All those meetings and what not. He is the Dean of Medicine after all. Busy busy busy. | ||
