Not sure about that. I remember the issue for Foreman being "becoming too much like House" in Season 3 (I think). So it makes sense that when House realized that he can't scam Foreman, he'd just collaborate with him into profit for both of them.
That's an interesting way of thinking about it. I hadn't considered that ^^ I thought Foreman had since become super-uptight though, as his number one priority was to make sure he didn't become like House, and he didn't want the hospital to look bad because of House either, while Foreman was in charge. But I guess if House behaved himself on this trip to AC (too bad they didn't go during IPL ), it would be fine.

they constantly said foreman was like house, but they never showed it (atleast not that i noticed). i never got any clues from dialogue or actions that made me think, wow foreman is like house. they just kept on saying it straight to peoples faces that i just went along with it ;/
is anyone else finding the show a bit dull this season? i know its the last one but tbh, now that its ending im kind of glad. i was in love with the show for the first 2 seasons but ive felt that everything since then has been of much lower quality (admittedly still above 90% of tv). maybe its just the predictability of everything making it less exciting but i also feel like i dont connect with any of the newer characters.
chase is the only character that has grown or changed over the years in a believable way. they killed off cameron long before her last episode, when she went blonde her whole character changed for no believable reason, and foreman, similar to what i said above ive never really got a feel for, people keep saying out loud what his character is supposed to be, but ive never seen it. he seems to just flip flop to fit the story.
the conversations which once felt deep and thought out now feel like every character is over analysing everything that anyone ever says, beyond house who has a believable need to analyse, to find puzzles and solve them, now the whole cast is up to it, nothing is ever just said, ever. everything has to have a deep hidden meaning.
the whole cuddy and house getting together thing felt weird and forced. they had known each other for 40 years and she had never decided he would make a good boyfriend, then he has a mental breakdown due to drug abuse and suddenly cuddy wants this to be the father to her child? a woman who has shown mental strength and independence in everything she has done in her life suddenly chucks it all away for a fling with house and gets exactly what she knew she would and then gets upset and dumps him.
the mental hospital opening of season 6(?) felt like a house movie, over the 2 episodes i felt like it completed a nice arc with some believable characters. the prison episode from this season felt like a shallow replication. the characters there had nothing interesting about them and i was never able to attach myself to any of them. it (the mental hospital) would of been a fitting end to the show as a whole
i feel like a show which could of gone down in history as one of the greatest shows of recent times, bringing the sherlock holmes style detective work into the modern era, but has dragged on so long that it will go down as merely 'good' or 'entertaining. its the mark of a great show when it ends and it leaves the fans begging for more, its a shame that after all this time ill be glad that its over ;/
Anyone ever noticed how in every episode, when they're brainstorming the diagnosis, someone will suggest "maybe it's lupus", to which House promptly responds "no, it's not lupus". It's never lupus x-)

pretty good episode this week. Question, when they are talking about a brazillian, they mean a brazillian girl right? Was pretty sure, but the grammar was weird around it

No, they meant a brazilian wax job. Meaning the removal of lots of body hair.
EPT
