seventheSo I think I'm totally and completely hooked on House. Which makes no sense, because the recent shows have been kind of annoying with the EBIL!COP subplot (and by "subplot" I actually mean "main plot"), but the show is absolutely hilarious, and it's got a lot of potential. Has anyone else been watching this season? Because, well, I mean...
I'm trying to figure out how they'll get out of this "asshole cop gets revenge by sending House to jail" plotline. I mean, House can't go to jail, and he can't lose his license - this is a big DUH, because the show is called "House" and not "Some Doctors". So. I'm wondering whether the case will go to court and be thrown out (or, in a laaaarge stretch, House takes it to court and wins). Two reasons: (1) I'm pretty sure the cop is way over his head on due process - impounding cars, freezing bank accounts? Offering plea deals on his own? Can you really do that? and (2) It would mean that House was right, and the show seems to go to pretty far lengths to show that House is almost always right.
Then House can go check himself into rehab as we all saw in the preview for January (JANUARY? I HATE YOU FOX), because he's doing it on his own time, and that's a much more House-y thing to do.
Anyway. I don't like this asshole-cop plotline at all. You started out feeling some sympathy for the cop, which was good! House is an ass! He finds an adversary who is also an ass! But they are both partially in the right, so the viewer is torn! Excellent! Aaaaaand ...and then Tritter just turned into a manipulative bitch and lost everything even remotely sympathetic about his character. And then we all hated him and started rooting for House again.
I mean, I'm no doctor, so that part of the show to me is much like CSI: watching people solve a mystery. But it's like there hasn't been enough medical stuff ON the show because this OMG HOUSE MEDS EVIL COP WITHDRAWAL PILLS PILLS PILLS WTF WILSON thing is taking over the entire freaking hospital.
Also, someone rec me a good House comm?

brokenprism for some high-quality crack lately. I've been mugged by plotbunnies. Coming your way: an FFIV/FFX crossover experiment, a series of Seifer/Zell drabbles also starring Edea, a very crackalicious Shadow/Terra for this month's ff_smutathon, and although I don't want to admit it out loud, the Irvine/Seifer ficlet. Also, possibly some work on those Christmas requests, and hopefully I will get back to stabbing at my claims.
