Can't wait.

Great teaser!

 

[Trekker4747]

Ah, the old "Maybe x didn't cause y but y caused x" theory.

A House staple.

I love Mos Def's commentary: " And you're the one who wanted to cut out my organs!"

This episode is very interestingly presented. It's been pretty good so far, could end up being one of the better House episodes in a while.

[Neroon]

Now even HE's zeroing in on House/Cuddy.

And it's great how much he's finding out about House himself.

 

[Neroon]

This reminds me of one of the better episodes of "M*A*S*H" in format.

These little interludes when Mos is "out of it" are fascinating. "House" still has a bit of his attitude... but it's muted to some extent.

 

[Dorian Thompson]

I remember a MASH episode like this. Interesting perspective, mix things up a bit.

Yeah. I haven't noticed if "dream House" walks with a favor, but I suspect not as POTW likely doesn't know of House's limp.

Mos would have seen House walk into his room at the emergency hospital at one point... at least that was the camera angle

 

[Kira's Mom]

Wow, I'm liking this one, though it's a bit like an older ER episode (stroke patient can't communicate).

 

[Trekker4747]

Yeah. I haven't noticed if "dream House" walks with a favor, but I suspect not as POTW likely doesn't know of House's limp.

Yeah, perhaps. But he wouldn't know if that's how House was walking because of his accident or if that's how House always walks if he even noticed it to begin with.

This episode is trending towards a high-Excellent for me.

Why am I thinking of Christopher Pike, heh

It is kinda cool, another piece of technology in our time that is coming close to Star Trek technology

I was, too!

Ditto!

There's already a Star Wars approximation with the "Force Trainer".

"Put I'm sorry on this stupid computer!"

If those rumours I've been reading about a character killing himself/herself is true, my money is on Taub. This episode seems to be setting it up. House is being an asshole to him here.

 

[Trekker4747]

Of course it's not cadmium poisoning! It's only the 40-minute mark!



I like the Pike similarities mentioned.

Given this series' creators Trek fandom I wouldn't be surprised if that was an intentional nod.
