I've been a proud follower and fan of the TV series "House" since the show began on November 16, 2004 with its pilot episode. Everyone remembers it, I'm certain, seeing Robin Tunney, who once famed us in the changing of her hair color by placing her hand in front of her face and lowering it from top to bottom, going from brown hair, to blonde: ta- da! And that Movie was; drumroll please: "The Craft!" And now here she is as a kindergarten teacher, and she is suddenly .... What? Perhaps speaking in tongues? No. The Children of course think it's funny, they are only five.
From this moment on, the show has everyone's attention, and is a hit. Choosing Hugh Laurie for the leading role, wise choice. Scruffy, yet sexy. Smart, and savvy and everything everyone needs to keep them a tune.
"House" survived 176 episodes, with the changing of many characters coming and going, as well as guest appearances; but the loyalty of the best friend saga, is faithful as ever between Dr. Gregory House played by the Brittish Film star Hugh Laurie and Dr. James Wilson played by Robert Sean Leonard. Both men have once loved, and dated the sexy Dr. Lisa Cuddy played by Lisa Edelstein, but at the end of Season 7, Cuddy didn't return to Season 8. And my honest opinion, with the way Season 7 went, I don't honestly think Cuddy was much into wanting to even "finish out" Season 7, but that's just how I took things. I personally didn't like the ending of Season 7 at all. I didn't find it thought out, nor well played.
The Television Series "House" was written by David Shore, all 176 episodes. He proudly created the series that we all know and love. And sadly, he also ended the show. Many of us, to this day, would've loved to continue watching the wit of Dr. House, and the pranks he and Dr. Wilson pull on one another are quite entertaining! (Where did you come up with them???!! LOL) many of times you have left us laughing, and many times with drop jaw, and again in pain for the patient.
I will say however; I feel that with each episode through out, you should've aired commercials about drug use. Why? Because Dr. House was constantly, up until the end of the show, promoting viocodin. Promoting it to the extent of overdosing and getting it illegally, and wrongfully. I don't care that he eventually went to jail, and that they mention from time to time that it's wrong. Commercials in between the show, needed to remind everyone,"This is drugs, and this is your brain on drugs!" With the frying of the egg. "Any questions?!" And tobacco free Florida, (or whatever state you're in, if your state has that kind of program like mine does!) forcing people to realize there are in fact places out there to get help, and that it's not that easy to get pills like Dr. House makes it out to be. I am highly against drug use, sorry, I will make a stand against it, this is just something I strongly believe in.
On a scale of 1 through 5 I give this show a four because of Season 7 and 8, I was not impressed with Cuddy dropping out, for whatever reason, and the end of Season 7, not to mention the whole Season 7 seems tarnished, rushed, and moody. Season 8 is iffy, I do like it once Wilson and House repair their friendship though. I also will not give it a 5 because of the continued Vicodin problem, though honest and truthful, it is the way of the World now of days, no I cannot do it, it's not me. And again, I am a loyal fan of the show, and dearly love Hugh Laurie, and one day hope to meet him!
I recommend this show to anyone above the age of 18, unless they are dealing with addictions.
