House

[Lady Lasa]

I know! I watched the repeats over the weekend too (for "research" lol) and I can't wait for the new one tonight. I'll be DVRing it too!

[perhapsormaybe]

I have it set to record as well, because dad usually wants to watch The Big Bang Theory which starts at the same time. Depends. Sometimes mom says she'd rather watch House, but it'll be recorded, so I'll be able to watch it, so I'm happy.

I drive my dad crazy with House, because if it's on, I usually change it to that channel, even if I've already seen the episode.

[Lady Lasa]

I'll watch the same episodes of any show multiple times, especially House. It drives the Mr. up a wall.

I've been trying to figure something out, though. What floor of the hospital is his office on? I can't find it anywhere. I know he usually takes the elevator up, but I never noticed what floor he selects.

[perhapsormaybe]

...You know, I have no idea. I can't remember them ever closing up on which button he was pushing on the elevator.

[perhapsormaybe]

So...the season finale.

Whoa.

Spoilers ahead![/i]

That was just crazy, but in an amazing way. I really loved how they did that...that House was hallucinating still was just great. I loved how they showed Kutner for a moment when House is realizing that he never actually was with Cuddy.

[Lady Lasa]

I know!

My recording cut off the last few seconds of it, though. Did he go to a rehab facility or a psych ward?

[perhapsormaybe]

It was a mental institution. Which someone worked so much better than a rehab center would.

[Lady Lasa]

Wow. And it was just a Season Finale, right? So we'll be getting another epic season of House?

[perhapsormaybe]

Well, it actually hasn't been renewed just yet, but given how great the show's ratings are, it's not unlikely that it'll be back. Hopefully it will be....I need my House.

[Lady Lasa]

Yeah. I'm a total Hugh Laurie fangirl (which isn't too bad since I'm only two years away from 30).

Must have more House!

[perhapsormaybe]

I fangirl Hugh Laurie as well....he's pretty good looking. ^_^ Plus he's a great actor.

[perhapsormaybe]

YES! I don't know how often you watch Fox, but I was watching and they showed a commercial....nothing from the new season, but it did announce that there's going to be one! YES!!!!!

[Lady Lasa]

That;s great news!

[perhapsormaybe]

"Also of note: The season premiere of "House," where we'll presumably discover what happened after House (Hugh Laurie) checked himself into a psychiatric facility, will run two hours on Monday, Sept. 21" from blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2009/06/fox-gets-a-slightly-early-start-on-the-new-season.html.

That's not *too* far off. Plus it's two hours. *squeal*

'House' is world's most popular TV show: ratings

PARIS (AFP) – US drama "House", starring Britain's Hugh Laurie as unconventional medical genius Doctor Gregory House, out-gunned rivals in 2008 to become the world's most watched show on television.

According to ratings agency Eurodata TV Worldwide, House and his team of canny diagnosticians last year gathered more than 81.8 million viewers in 66 countries, representing a potential 1.6 billion viewers.

That was far more than the 2007 and 2006 winners in the same TV drama category, "CSI: Las Vegas", about a team of forensic experts, and its spin-off "CSI: Miami".

In the TV comedy category, the US female-star cast of "Desperate Housewives" for the second year running beat "Monk" (US) and "Ugly Betty" (US), attracting 65.3 million viewers worldwide in 2008.

"The Bold and the Beautiful", also a US show, with 24.5 million viewers was the most popular soap for the second consecutive year, thrashing Mexican telenovela "Marina" and US competitor "The Young And The Restless."
