Secret Agent!Girl is not sexy at all. She looks... badly tanned

I love how desperate the writers are getting.

"Ok, so the super-hot near-underage nutritionist was a bust. How about an actual doctor? A super-sexy, super-duper-mysterious doctor chick half his age. Who's got, like, hidden issues and shit. He's *got* to react positively to that. What? The fans think she's gratuitous and overhyped? Well, fiddlesticks. Okay, super hot doctor chick on back burner for now. New plan: how about House gets kidnapped by the CIA and gets this hot chick to be his partner... what, what are you laughing at? What do you mean, 'amateurish twaddle'?"

Super hot doctor chick has to be 40 by now, and talentless. Hated her on both ER and Homicide.

[axmxz.livejournal.com]

I don't actually mind that she isn't hot or young. The trouble is, they have him carry on as if she was both of those, which just looks ridiculous. Like he's making cruel fun of her or something.

Wilson is way prettier than all of them. Srsly.

[axmxz.livejournal.com]

*That* is definitely true.

[galaxygirl76.livejournal.com]

That goes without saying. There is no one prettier than Wilson.

[woodencoyote.livejournal.com]

They're all bad one-shot fanfic character, except for maybe Dwarf lady. She was at least clever enough to spar with him

[axmxz.livejournal.com]

I wonder when they'll give in and accept that they've written House into a 'no girls allowed' corner?

[idonmatrix.livejournal.com]

Thank you!!!! Thank you!!! I think they're trying really, really hard to find a female that will be just as hot as House/Wilson. I can assure the TPTB that that's NEVER EVAR gonna happen. They need to stop fighting it and go with the H/W flow.

[axmxz.livejournal.com]

The longer they do it, the dumber it looks. Sirsly.

[woodencoyote.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. After a while it gets kinda ridiculous, and at this point, I don't think anyone's fooled.

[axmxz.livejournal.com]

Especially now that they've effectively showed that Cuddy is no match for him.

[woodencoyote.livejournal.com]

Yes, I think Cuddy's safely out of the running

[axmxz.livejournal.com]

Dude, this is weird. Cammie is out, Cuddy is out... there really *are* no girls left for him. And no one he really likes, either. Just Wilson, and they are tying them tighter and tighter together with every episode so far.

Season four rocks my world, yo.

I know! They lost their only hope for that when they utterly and completely crushed Cuddy's Balls. I'm sorry, but House and Wilson need to officially get together and forbid each other from ever even LOOKING at any one ever again. And you know what? I utterly, completely trust HL and RSL to keep these characters and their interactions with each other interesting, EVEN in a stable long-term relationship.

I vote they get together at the BEGINNING of the last season, so we can spend ALL season enjoyably watching them figure out the particulars of being a couple. :P


Going back to Cuddy, why IS SHE SOOO worried about House screwing with her birth control pills, when just recently it seems she was trying DESPERATELY to get pregnant, and the fact that she couldn't was utterly breaking her heart??? Continuity anyone??? Oh wait, I forgot. House writers are too cool for that. Which is why the new fellows seem to have personality shifts EVERY SINGLE WEEK!!!

Going back to Cuddy, why IS SHE SOOO worried about House screwing with her birth control pills

Because that sandwich someone mentioned earlier may be what they're going for. Recall AYA - Cuddy to House "I thought he was the safe choice" - Wilson suspects Cuddy wants to see him naked thanks to House sending him flowers under aka Lisa.

I'm thinking Cuddy jumped Wilson during the summer and has been regularly jumping him ever since. House doesn't know Wilson is doing the wild thing with Cuddy and Cuddy doesn't tell him. House and Cuddy get their freak on cause they bond after yet another patient dies due to House's antics. Voila!! Cuddy gets pregnant. Wilson is disturbed by this because he thought Cuddy was taking birth control. Cuddy tells Wilson that House had switched out her BCs. Wilson is pissed at House but doesn't say anything. Then House confronts Cuddy cause her breasts have turned into milk vats. House wants to know who the father is but Cuddy assures him it's not his. Then House notices Wilson is spending a lot of time in whispered hallway conversations with Cuddy. House confronts him. Wilson admits he's been doing the nasty with Cuddy and then accuses House putting him in this situation. House tells him not to worry because it may not be yours. Wilson searches House's eyes and realizes that he's been sleeping with Cuddy too. Both end up pissed at Cuddy. Several months later during Feb sweeps we will be treated to a two-parter entitled Cuddy's vagina chronicles, where House's team and Wilson struggle to save Cuddy so she can have what every middle-aged woman wants a baby that she'll have to farm out to daycare five days a week. Of course I'm just speculating : rolls eyes

[magegirl8.livejournal.com]

I lURVE you speculation This much!: >______:)_______<


Except... Wilson doesn't seem right now like he's doing Cuddy - he just really doesn't. Have you seen anything (past act your age) that suggests otherwise? I would love to hear about all the evidence, especially if I've missed it! *cries*

[mbcorp.livejournal.com]

lol, I had the same speculation after watching this episode. Well, at least the speculation about Wilson doing Cuddy. I just think they're going to try and fool the audience and keep throwing out all kinds of hints that Cuddy and House are sleeping together, but then it really turns out to be Wilson & Cuddy.

[xidiomaticlogic.livejournal.com]

Holy mother of WORD.

[galaxygirl76.livejournal.com]

Completely agree with you. They need to go with the most obvious and natural pairing. I bet they are already doing it by now ;)

[xidiomaticlogic.livejournal.com]

"Stick with the men!"

...-coughs- Yeah. I'm still holding out a bit of hope for 13, because I have to maintain a certain level of optimism for my sanity. If they keep her FAR AWAY from love interest zone, and really play up the hinted-at psychological under-layer of crazed terror, she could be lots of fun and a great foil for CTB.
