Also, they've pretty much abandoned the H/W. The actors can't help have chemistry, but the rest of the playfulness etc. is gone. I kind of hope Wilson does have a kid and become a daddy (since heteronormative dreams are the only option).

They've kind of ruined their characters. They're not... complex anymore, not interesting. Wilson desperately wants to be boring and ordinary and it's working out for him. House desperately doesn't want to be alone and Cuddy's his only chance, so he's going to mold himself into a thing she likes. This medicine 'hangup' of his was the only thing keeping him from being completely pussywhipped, and that'll go too. Cuddy... knows what she wants and she wants to make him boring too. Wtf.

This show is like a bad habit. I keep going back because I'm used to it and it's just so consistantly crap... Honestly, I was so excited by Grey's Anatomy this week, at least their melodrama is interesting.

Boring middle-aged settling into the suburbs. Thanks, show. What a lovely lesson about the slow decay of individuality and the desire not to die alone. That seems to be the driving force behind both House and Wilson's relationship.

ha, that lesson actually fits with the 'nobody is happy EVAR' theme of the overall show...

"This show is like a bad habit. I keep going back because I'm used to it and it's just so consistantly crap." I agree with this completely.
