He's a grumpy bugger.
The storyline doesn't seem to change very much.
But I quite like it anyway.

Also I keep expecting him to suddenly chirpily utter "my sainted trousers B'ladder" or "harold the horny hunter had an enormous horn". Which does put me off a bit.

Saw the first episode of "Lost" on C4. A bit cheesy, but good old fashioned entertainment all the same. Will be keeping an eye on it.

The storylines get a bit samey, but the dialogue and acting is always brilliant. It has been first series I've watched all the way through in a long time.
Oh and Hugh Laurie is definitely the man, his American accent is good enough to deserve a mention, not to mention the complexity of the character he plays remarkably well.

Doogie HOUSEr md?
I am going to plop my gimp files for your avatar into the recycle bin. But I am not actually going to recycle them. I will dump them in the ocean and hopefully kill some seals. It ended up sucking, partly because I had to shrink it due to my lack of foresight and partly because it simply ended up sucking. I plan to just make a different one, not based on the letters in your alias. Here's what I had which sucks as you can see. Basically the letters go around in the shape of a square [] with a hollow center and morph retardedly into eachother (the e would move downward to an l). I had other sucktastic ideas to add to it but it's not worth finishing.

oh and btw about that show, 'house'... seen it once, seen all "doctor" "hospital" "dramas" a million times. better than the rest of them out there, i will admit, tho. still didn't negate the fact that it reamianed just a make believe fallacy on the telly used to sell me more mindless propaganda, only now in short 2 minute bursts every four minutes. smash your magnavox.

The adverts aren't nearly so bad in the UK, we get a few minutes every 15 minutes of program, which isn't so bad. Easy enough to ignore, just do something else while they are running.
What makes the show interesting is the main character - while the rest of them are fleshed out as well, he is a complex and abrasive individual.
But yeah in general TV is pretty appalling. Just have to pick your shows. I prefer mindless chatter on the internet instead.

House is quite good.
Season 4 was the best so far.

fuckin great show, one of my faves, but i dont think they will ever be able to top the run from the middle of season 1 through season 2 - past that it got all dramatized and character-driven, which is good and all, but i liked when the actual medicine was the focus of the show, they had some great diagnoses.
one of my faves: (apparently fucked his daughter) dad: so how did the test come back? was it negative?
house: no. dad: so she has cancer? house: nnnnnot quite... dad: ??? house: HE has cancer. on HIS left testical. male pseudohermaphroditism [goes through whole diatribe with cgi internal organs and such explaining that she has an x and y chromo but is immune to testosterone - hence boy that really looks like a girl)
dad: you're joking right? house: no, me joking would be calling you a homo.

We're pretty opposite on House, I think. I've told people they can just skip the first two seasons because- aside from the Voegler arc in season 2- they're really repetitive. Every episode hinged on the "oh we saved you but we have 20 minutes left so you're gonna collapse again on your way out of the hospital" trick.
But I love what they've done the last two Seasons- shifting the focus to the character. House himself has always been the real reason to watch the show, and he's gotten progressively better each season as a character.
