House Is the "World's Most Popular Show"
Grumpy, witty ol' Dr. House and his team have won over audiences all around the world, according to a poll conducted by ratings agency Eurodata TV Worldwide. In 2008, Fox's House apparently "gathered more than 81.8 million viewers in 66 countries, representing a potential 1.6 billion viewers."
House Rundown: Episode 24, "Both Sides Now"
After last week's episode of House, I wondered how House would cope in a world where he was no longer on drugs. I was also curious to see what would happen to the sexual tension between House and Cuddy now that they've apparently done the deed. How did it all go down in Monday's season finale?
House Rundown: Episode 23, "Under My Skin"
This week's House finds House still struggling with his hallucinations of Amber and wanting to get them out of his head for good. That sends him to his friends for help — with intriguing consequences. Meanwhile, Cameron asks Chase a potentially relationship-changing favor, and House's team works on a case alone.
TV Tonight: House
For the second year in a row, House seems to have really kicked it up a notch at the end of its season. Last year, the fantastic plotline was the death of Amber and the way it disrupted the bromance of House and Wilson. This year's killer story once again involves Amber — but now, she's back as some kind of apparition, haunting House and giving voice to some of his meanest and most devious thoughts.
House Rundown: Episode 22, "House Divided"
Back when Amber was competing for a job as one of House's fellows, I sometimes thought of her as House's perfect counterpart — his mirror image. Well, I didn't mean it literally! But in this week's House, Amber is essentially haunting our cranky doctor, showing up as a hallucination and speaking his thoughts.
House Rundown: Episode 21, "Saviors"
This episode of House picks up the aftermath of last week's shocking death, and if you were wondering how Cameron and Chase would react, this is your episode: for the first time in a long, long time, the two of them are the focus. Meanwhile, House appears to be completely unchanged by the death — until a big, fun twist in the final minute. Ready to talk about it?
House Rundown: Episode 20, "Simple Explanation"
In this age of spoilers, I'm always impressed when a TV show manages to pull off something shocking. So kudos to House for keeping a secret; that made what happened in Monday's episode mean even more. To say more would risk ruining it for those who haven't seen it, so if you're ready to chat, just read more
House Rundown: Episode 19, "Locked In"
This week's episode of House comes at us largely from the perspective of its patient, a man who had a bicycle accident that rendered him "locked in" with no way to communicate save for blinking and moving a computer cursor with his brain. House — who conveniently crashed his motorcycle and ended up in the hospital bed next to him — becomes fixated on figuring out what caused his syndrome, while the patient is forced to listen to the everyday dramas of House's team with no way to escape the monologues. Ready to talk about it?
TV Tonight: House, Guest-Starring Mos Def
There's a pretty interesting episode of House coming up tonight, for a couple of reasons: Its guest star and its unique style. The episode, called "Locked In," stars Mos Def as a patient diagnosed with locked-in syndrome, the same affliction spotlighted in the movie The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.
The episode is filmed in a similar style to that movie, with scenes shot from the patient's perspective.
House Rundown: Episode 18, "Here Kitty"
This week's episode of House finds the team chasing around a "death cat," a little gray kitty named Debbie who's come to some amount of fame (at least local TV fame) by predicting deaths of nursing home patients. Meanwhile, Taub thinks he's found a way out of some financial and personal misery, but that ends up being a trickier proposition than it looks. To chat about it, just read more
