I Shouldn’t Have Watched House, M.D. Last Night
OK, I really like House, M.D. and have really enjoyed the last two seasons where he's kicked the vicodin and started being a little softer, almost like a Secret Santa of sorts. And I'll admit I get sucked into the suspension of disbelief for this series - I mistake these actors and writers as people and not fiction... when he saves people, it's great. When it's funny, it's a scream. But when, like last night, it's sad for House, it's really sad. And it lingers.
I know I am just the kind of audience producers love. But they will loose me if the show "jumps the sharks" and causes House to relapse into his old, self-destructive, ways. I know it's all about the "drama", but this show isn't about the drama for House, but the drama that swirls around him. He's clearly tortured when he can't solve the patient's puzzle, no matter how much he says he doesn't care. To heap more on him seems, to me, to be too much.
I hope they resolve this very soon.
