Not gonna lie, I hate the show House. I’ve watched the entire series multiple times but there’s a lot do like about it, but the reason I have to hate it because the show creators said that they never wanted House to solve a case by the normal means. They wanted him to like run into their ex-gfs dog’s brother that ate something through a story while he was berating her cheating because they stepped on his cane the wrong way. For me, it would be nice to solve a case through competency … it always rubbed me the wrong way.
To be clear, this is subjective. Many people watched the shows and it made them wanna be nurses and doctors and it was their inspiration. So I’m definitely an outlier but it just gets me.
lol, I gave up on the series after the fourth episode on television. First watch was because I thought I was missing something. Second watch was because my brother was around and that’s what he watched.
The other rewatches was because I needed some background stuff and I had Amazon Prime.
I like some of the characters but the show itself bugs me and I’m an idiot.
If they had Scrubs on Prime Canada I would have just watched that for the umpteenth time instead.
I’ve read all the twilight books, not because I thought it was good, nor because I gave a damn about any of the characters, but because I wanted to know how it ended and I wanted the ending to make sense.
It sounds like it’s just not the show you’re expecting. It’s not trying to be ER or Scrubs. It’s Sherlock Holmes.
It’s like watching Mindhunter and criticizing it for not being more like Cops where they solve the case because they catch the suspect in the act of trying to shove the evidence up their butt.
I have absolutely no idea. I think it was one of the few shows on Amazon Prime. I think I enjoyed some of the interplay between the characters? The medicine stuff just made me hate it.
Wasn’t his whole job to solve a case that the other doctors couldn’t solve? When the average doctor’s competency couldn’t solve the case they’d turn it to House to use unconventional methods.
I agree with you on that, as a whole the plot structure gets awful formulaic after a while. I’ve watched it a few times now and it’s become a comfort show for me- watched it the first time for the character arcs, the second time for the philosophical themes, and subsequent times for filthy House zingers

He does solve cases by normal means, they’re just usually quick parts of the episode.
I just have to ask: you hate the series, but have watched the entire series multiple times?
Are you a sailor stuck at sea for months or something?

Why?

Agreed but the way it’s solved isn’t through a way that seems to make sense. It always feels contrived to me.
I’ve seen doctors react on YouTube and they were like, “why would you run this test, this other test would have shown that”
Let me be clear, I know my opinion isn’t popular and it’s all make-believe. I’m not saying my dislike for the show is rational.
