Wish they’re rebroadcast “House.” The show was riddled with weather warnings here, and I missed important scenes.
It will probably be on hulu.com after a while.
Spoiler alert! You really didn’t miss a lot. House detoxed. Almost got a patient killed—again. Took his depression meds, and in his weakened state, let a thirty-something woman have her way with him in a love scene that wasn’t bad. She moves to Phoenix and breaks his heart—again because the Paxil, or something else, give House the energy to feel. (I don’t think it really does that but this is television) the energy to feel. He gets to practice again but the preview indicates that Huddy is restricting permission. The real medical science series begins next week and I can’t wait!
I was wondering if it it would be worthwhile to create a blog dedicated to the moral “drop-outs” of each House episode. I like the show, but some things are dangerous in it.
Last night we saw a son pull the plug on his dad since House said “no brain left”. We saw House at first resist an adulterous affair with a married woman, but then indulge it. We saw House’s therapist treat without consideration for moral hazard. I guess that “moral sanity” is out of fashion. We saw a two-hour commercial for psycho-active drugs.
The biggest moral hazard of all? That was the assimilation of House into the amoral Borg, the big happy club, as a a requisite of his rehab. How Marxist.
