I admit, at the end of the last season of "House" I was beginning to lose faith. I thought maybe the show had wandered off course too far.
Last week on "House", Chase completely disregarded the hippocratic oath by faking test results so that the POTW would get incorrect treatment, thus killing him. Will there be consequences tonight?
By casting the man who played Darth Vader as a genocidal dictator, did 'House' take the easy road in creating a compelling POTW? Perhaps, but it's so good, I just don't care!
While "House" only spent one two hour episode in the psych unit, I had hoped to see some longer reaching story arcs branching off from the event. Based on tonight, so far, so good.
As if I were not excited enough about the premiere of 'House', the show opens up with a detox montage set to Radiohead's 'No Surprises'. Bliss! Of course, not entirely apropos as there were surprises. Plenty of them.
Tonight's episode of House rehashed story lines that were far more interesting during season 3, when Tritter was around to add some suspense to it all and force him to do what he didn't really want to do.
I was really looking forward to tonight's episode of House and exploring why Cutthroat Bitch was back, even if just in a hallucinatory sense. Why, then, do I feel a little....discontented?
It's been a week since Kutner's suicide and House still fears the loss of his mojo, while everyone else wonders who Cameron loves. And you won't believe who shows back up!
Tonight, House
really did deliver the unexpected. So much so that I don't even know
how to write about it, because it just seemed out of the blue. Which
was rather the point, I suppose, because the whole team is at a loss
for how to react.
