Current Events > Watching the first episode of House MD

(+) Yeah! (+)

Watching House ask his lady employee to go to a monster truck rally with him is the saddest and cringiest thing I've ever seen.

40% of lawsuits at the hospital is because of House. That's insane

House tried to bribe a surgeon into helping him and then blackmailed him about adultery

Everyone on this team is committed to creating the worst fucking work environment. Foreman gets put on supervisory for House and it instantly goes to his head.

What episode are you currently on, and how many episodes per day are you able to watch? I haven't seen House in over a decade, and unfortunately for me nothing you're saying is triggering any memories.

I feel like these diseases in general are not as hard to diagnose as the show make them out to be, without actually knowing if that's true.

Also in one of the episodes I was watching House was talking with Wilson about how he's a dick to his staff. I think he said he grabbed Cameron's ass and he called Foreman a spade. But the subtitles didn't say spade. It used the n-word. And not the 'n-word' euphemism either. Just the actual word.

This Volger guy is basically the Kingpin. It's great.

On the whole formulaic bit, yes, House is one of the most formulaic shows of all time. Every so often it switches up, but 90% of episodes are going to feel familiar.

What makes it fun are the character dynamics at work, and House himself is just a riot at all times.

"Why didn't they put you in charge instead of Foreman? Oh yeah, you're the guy who killed that woman."

This is S02E09

House and Cameron riding in motorcycle together

But is it lupus?

Cuddy: actually I won't keep you in charge Foreman because House's insane medical negligence didn't matter because he happened to smell her pillow afterward

Cuddy has to look so perpetually stupid for this show to maintain status quo

is it really the law in New Jersey that parents don't have to be informed and an investigation doesn't have to be set in motion if a 12 year old with a very close relationship with her sports trainer, presumably from out of state, gets pregnant?

Check out this continuity error

Stacy: I booked a room for us since the weather was bad House

Don't fucking do it house NOOOOOOOO

House s too obsessive he'd rather solve the aphasia than FUCK HIS EX

This show is crazy

Love when House's diagnosis is a metaphor for his own fucked up life

Cuddy: queen of destroying relationships

Yo what the hell Stacy just quoted Woody Allen about relationships

Wilson is so pissed about this. He's never been like this before. He's been through shit with the affairs

Wilson rolls weed for his cancer patients. Holy based

They did it

Oh Jesus CHRIST the blood

"Being miserable doesn't make you better than anyone else, House. It just makes you miserable."

Wilson sick of his shit

They just repeated like the EXACT scene where Cuddy asks where her assistant is, the nurse says she left since Wednesday, and Cuddy says fire her when she gets here. It may outright be reused footage.

Oh wait, this is from a clip I watched before starting the show

House cheated in med school!

YO THEYRE PUTTING THIS KID IN THE CLOCKWORK ORANGE MACHINE

House thinks about Napoleon Bonaparte a lot

Apparently doctors use maggots to clean wounds??

I hate seeing a picture from later season House with his head shaved like Breaking Bad Jesse

As far as I know, that's legit.

They only eat necrotic tissue and leave the healthy stuff alone.

People were talking about the racial stuff from the early episodes.... I watched through The Walking Dead and within the first few episodes Rick and Merle drops an N bomb and Daryl drives a motorcycle with an SS sticker. Probably wouldn't see that nowadays.

I'm cringing so hard at this dominatrix episode.

House is just as much a character drama as it is a medical procedural. The development of their personal lives is absolutely spoiler territory. >_>

I was happy to let it go because even though I was correct, its not that big of a deal. But I do think its funny that I was reported and berated for posting an insignificant detail that only these hall monitor-ass nerds would care about, but they can post explicit plot details unmarked and no one gives a shit.

Also the actual topic creator who specifically asked you not to do that, but I don't want to mess up your persecution complex.

Thats not what happened, but I dont want to relitigate the whole stupid thing. Everyone, feel free to post as many spoilers as you want. Its apparently only against the rules if I do it, even though I never did it.

I havent even talked about the show outside of that one post, so surely you dont think I need to mark posts as spoilers when theyre not even discussing the show. Its hard to tell, since youre such a ridiculous clown. But also, there are literally dozens of posts in this thread with unmarked spoilers, but since I didnt post them no one gives a shit.

There are maybe two that aren't by the actual TC that have been posted since your last shitfest.

Why would the TCs posts not count as spoilers if they spoil the plot of an episode? Theres no spoiler warning in the title and someone who has never seen the show reads through the topic and sees dozens of actual plot spoilers.

I dont actually care about the spoilers. I was fine with dropping the whole thing. This is mountains of molehills to an absurd level. I just wanted to talk about one of my favorite shows. Thanks for ruining that for me. Blow it out your ear.

Because the entire argument is about not spoiling it for the topic creator specifically, you myopic buffoon.

Can you guys not make this topic into a fight. I almost did that last time, but I deleted my post. The guy is wrong and won't admit it. Let it go.

He hasn't done it since then so there's no point bringing it up again.

My last post about this and it should be you guy's last post too.

Wilson: You're an asshole
*House epiphany*
House: Check the patient's asshole!

The spoiler rules on this board have absolutely nothing to do with spoilers only pertaining to the person who made the topic. Im actually considering the other people who might click on this topic without knowing they might see episode spoilers, unlike you. Every single one of those posts is a violation of the ToS and every one is moddable. If I was as petty as one of you rules-loving nerds I would go through this topic and mark every single one.

Just wanted to say, thats a great joke.

That guy couldn't let it go so I blocked him for now just so the thread isn't derailed

Hugh Laurie is great at acting out the horrible shooting pain in his leg when he puts weight on it

Umm HOUSE IS ARGUING AGAINST THE AGE OF CONSENT

The dad dramatically turned away from his daughter after learning she has XY chromosomes. Bizarre episode

House's morphine shot was a placebo, his pain is psychological

Wilson's wife cheated on him.....
