House, MD.


I've been following House, M.D. sporadically for the past few months, but up til recently I'd never gotten around to sitting down and watching the entire thing. It's basically been my reward for whenever I get some work done, and trying to get to the next episode has expedited my work process quite a bit.

I've fangirl'd enough about rampant omg!slash in various shows/anime/comics/etc. often enough, but I'll be the first to admit that this show isn't really my regular fare. Greg House, the main character, is something of an anti-hero. He's got the worst bedside manner in the history of bad doctors, is basically addicted to pain medication, and is a genius at his job (he's the head of diagnostics at the PPTH). Aside from having 3 sidekicks (all brilliant doctors in their own right), the prettiest bitch-boss I've ever seen (i have a girl-crush on cuddy, thank you very much), and pure loathing for all his patients, he's also got James Wilson (head of oncology and played by one of my favourite actors ever) as his best friend.

House MD is witty, acerbic, and a breath of fresh air from regular Hospital Drama fare.

And of course, there is the slash. XD

Vid and Fic Recs:

House/Wilson ship manifesto: http://community.livejournal.com/ship_manifesto/134411.html
Well-written essay with great fic recs, quotes, and episode referals.

Fic: "Terminal" by humanyouth (House/Wilson): http://community.livejournal.com/house_wilson/413379.html
It's short and as sweet as any attraction between acerbic!House and good boy!Wilson could probably be.

Video: "Collide" (House/Wilson) : http://youtube.com/watch?v=mPpxPRM5AXM
This makes me happy because all the clips used are entirely canon. XD And yes, at one point in the series they do end up living together. ^____^

Video: "This Unavoidable Thing" (House/Wilson) : http://youtube.com/watch?v=XoLAb5G4raA
A really well-made video that revolves around the episodes where House and Wilson are living together.

Video: "Circus Lights" (House/Wilson) : http://youtube.com/watch?v=mS0IiKDUhG0
This video has some manipulation in it, so please be advised that it is flagged by You Tube and NOT work safe.

Video Clip: Episode 7, Season 2 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFiFw_j07nQ&NR
A nice example of their banter. :>

And that's it! If there's anything else you want to request (more videos, fics, etc.), just let me know and I'll post more links. ^_^ Enjoy! :)

♥ *hugs* This series is SO MUCH LOVE.

House MD is just so different from those other medical dramas, what with the characters (House is so cynical and bitter and HE'S RUDE TO THE PATIENTS but it's fine because he's SO BRILLIANT.) and OH MAN THE WRITTING IS AWESOME. Also, I love Hugh Laurie. :D

and I totally ship House/Wilson. Most of my buttons, yeah, they push 'em.

House is one of 2 shows that I never miss ever. (Project Runway LOL is the other one). XD

And, because wow caring is sharing and everything, here's a really cool House webcomic: [info]_thickasabrick. There's also even a bingo card to play with while watching the show. XD

I know man, I'm so glad to have another HOUSE fan on my flist~! I keep pimping it to people, but I'm surprised at how few people on my flist watch it. It's always fun to have people to fangirl and flail with. YAY.

I totally flailed when they were roommates for those episodes. And awww, they are great compliments to eachother. ^___^


PR is the only reality tv-type that I watch, because as much as it's a competition and the whole realityOMGTHEDRAMA, it's all about actual creative talent. Which is cool. And man, some of those people... XD;;

Wah! Thank you so much! :DDD *hugs hugs*

Me, too!! I'm so happy to have other fans to squee with! XD (Though in regards to how few people watch it, it may also be because it's aimed towards a slightly older demographic?)

This fact makes me happy, though, because the quality of the fic is really quite good. There are still some stray bad!fics laying about, but even those are fun to read. XDDD

PR = I love Jay's designs. XD I wish I could join something like that someday... (Dream on, Trin. Lol.)

I love House but I'm gonna be the first here to say something negative against it. The writers have NO CONCEPT of character arc or consistency in character writing. They use them (mostly Foreman, Cameron and Chase) to suit whatever storyline is happening that week, then change how they act in the next. Best example of this terrible handling of consistency - CAMERON.

Otherwise, it's brill.

Awww, I agree.

I love Cameron when they're not using her to fulfill whatever nefarious purpose they've got up their sleeve THIS episode. :(

It was at it's worst during the second season. I've been rewatching several of the episodes on my DVDs and when you marathon this series, it's easy to see how differently characters act from week to week. When you watch it while it's on, though, you have more time to realize what's gone wrong with each character and more time to bitch about it.

It seems like I'm railing on it, but I'm not. The writers have the medical stuff, the snappy writing, the twists and turns down, it's that they suck when it comes to presenting characters in a way that makes sense.

House~~ I love the show (and ship Cuddy/House just as much as House/Wilson >.> ot3?) My mom lives in Princeton, so whenever they pan over the campus, or talk about places there, I'm always like "OH OH I KNOW THAT" (and actually what they have as the hospital is really a large library or something... >.>)

Randomly, there's a girl who's done some spectacular House/Chase art hidden away on LJ somewhere... I can get you the link once I get home if that piques your interest.

Yeah, I wonder if they do that much shooting on campus??? ...Probably not, too many students around. It'd be fun to see, though!

Umm... So the girl is [info]lisastatic, but for some reason all the images are coming up as Xes for me... I don't know if they really are down or my PC is having internet issues, or what... (doesn't make sense to lock stuff you're doing for a challenge comm, but... *shrug*)

Anyhow, the new season of House is supposed to be starting up soon, right? I can finally keep up every week instead of having to marathon a bunch later... ^^

They use the building for exterior shots only. The rest of it - except the obvious locations - are sets.

New season begins on Sept. 5th in the US.

Okay, figured as much. Other than that, I wonder how many of the locations are actually "on location." I mean, sure, most places seem New Jerseyish enough, but I wonder...

Sweet~ I'll be checking my torrents! *boo to living in a House-less country*

Yay, House!
I'm one of those weird people who likes House as single and bitter, although I have a secret fondness for House/Stacey, House/Foreman, and House/Vogler. Foreman needs more love.

And I love Wilson too! He knows just how to handle House. *g* Everyone's just perfect in the show. Great links, I'll stop by some of them. XD
