      Also butt hole worms are one of the most common and enduring medical conditions in human history.

          You’re right, I only love you for your butthole worms.

          My wife, who as far as I know has none, is going to be devastated.

      Hugh Laurie is an amazing actor. I watch the show as more of a character story than a medical show. Watching House’s descent is just so intriguing to me

    Ironically, playing a doctor made the actor sick

    House was never about the medicine.

    It is about the anti-hero.

    Yeah the cases were fun and formulaic, but my favorite parts were seeing the moments House was confronted with his mental health. The guy cared a lot and had no idea how to deal with it.

    I like how every patient gets a big room with huge windows and a team of doctors on call 24/7 and 12 medical tests done a day with no waiting. And no one ever talked about the bills.

    Excellent satire indeed. Also highlights how having experience with personal medical issues can help broaden perspective on how to help others.

    It’s canon in the series that there’s an entire budget in that hospital just for settling the lawsuits that arise due to House.

    For those who didn’t get it House is just sherlock Holmes in a medicinal setting.

    His friend is Wilson instead of Watson.

    He is a genius, eccentric who solves mysteries using his intellect and deduction, hell he even uses drugs just like Holmes.

      If you’ve dealt with real doctors, you know that is high fantasy.

        It’s a TV show, if it wasn’t fictional it would be incredibly boring.
