House M.D.

[giza]

So, does anyone else watch House, M.D.? I got addicted to it when I saw my first episodes on the flight back from Belgium.

A video of the opening can be found on Google video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-896095449814925697

[Edit: I found this hilarious spoof of House M.D. from MAD TV: http://talie.underground.net/house/madtvspoof.mov]

Diana and I LOVE "House", good old "Dr Feelbad".

Its a great example of a show that rides on the strength of the characters, certainly not the proceeduals (their medical proceedures and other practices borderline on criminal). But the dialog in this show is so amazingly good.

I love that show. I watch it whenever I can.

I echo the sentiments above, but would add that there is a gruesome satisfaction in watching people gradaully succumb to ever more humiliating and disgusting medical disasters until they are saved... or not. The first two episodes I saw both degenerated into severe rectal bleeding. Horrifying. It was awesome.

If it was played heroically, it would be the worst show on tv. But it's saved from itself by that great asshole, Dr. House.

I suppose I could hunt it up and download it. Need to watch the eps of Weeds I got 2 weeks ago. :)

I watch it now and again (when I can remember to tape it. I work a lot of Tuesday nights). It's a wonderful show. Won a Golden Globe this year, I think.

I used to watch ER with my mum but stopped when I moved out to university and lacked a VCR any more. House though now blows away every other medical drama out there. :)

I just get too weirded out by Hugh Laurie with an American accent. I keep remembering his characters from the last two series of Blackadder.

Hey, interesting post to another community -- something maybe to check out about the hearts of migraine sufferers? It's here.

I saw House the other night for the first time (someone taped it and said I should see it). I liked it a LOT! He's going to keep taping them for me @:)

Are you sure this is a spoof ? Looked like the episode I saw last night.

I love the show! Some of the medicine itself is a bit of a reach, but it exemplifies the medical thought process of formulating differential diagnoses and then bumping them up, down, and off the list via the history, physical exam, lab tests, and studies. I give it two paws up. -Ralkor, M.D.-Ph.D. at Harvard ;)

He's not THAT serious, trust me.
