    I've never seen it, but I think I'll have to check it out. I've heard nothing but good things!

    My son watches and re-watches every episode. I keep telling him that House is an egomanic dickhead just to get a rise out of him. Pretty good show though. Now we got Burn Notice on the DVR too, its not bad either.

    Well, yeah he is...but that's what's so cool about him! (Not to mention his vicodin tolerance must be astronomical.)

    Vaguely.
    All I know is that he is a doctor, that always seems to know how to diagnose weird diseases...
    Am I close? :D

    Pretty much. He diagnoses stuff that no one else can figure out. He has a team of doctors that assists him. He is addicted to vicodin and is constantly popping pills. He's DAMN good at his job and he knows it. He's EXTREMELY arrogant and doesn't even like to meet the patients he treats.

    Favorite show right now. Got into during season 3. I caught up through re-runs.

    I think this season is phenominal. The best so far. And you know something is going to have to happen. They can't keep this many characters forever.

    Q: Did you have any input into the movie?

    Kal Penn: I suggested strongly using Pearl Jam because I'm a huge Pearl Jam fan. I think kids of every race, gender and ethnicity at that age listen to Pearl Jam. I also figured if the movie is taking place in this time period he would probably be passionate about Pearl Jam. Pearl Jam won't let you use a song unless they've see the film. They own all of their licensing rights, which is rare for a band. We shot that scene twice [where Gogol rocks out to a Pearl Jam tune in his bedroom]. Thanks to Eddie Vedder and the guys they let us use the music.

    BUMP because last night's episode was pretty freaking awesome.
    I am getting a little sick of the Foreman/Thirteen drama though...
    But I watched a rerun of "Lucky Thirteen" after last night's new episode was over and felt much better. ;)

    I think that relationship is going to end badly. There is no way the old crew and the new crew all come back next season.

    I heard that the old crew is going to be having a larger role coming up later this season. It is a lot of people. The "Games" storyline was SO good...but now they've just got such a huge cast... House has always been more about the medicine than the characters...and now they're starting to go the way of Greys and ER...
