Please direct all general and specific discussion of the 10/17/11 episode "Charity Case" to this thread.
Enjoy!
FOX (ended 2012)
This episode didn't really feel like it got going throughout the entire way. It just slowly slogged along and failed to interest me at any point.
Was nice to see 13 back, but her final moments weren't anything special. Would have liked to see her at least say goodbye to Foreman as well considering their history, and to bring some closure to that story.
Dr Park's attitude is getting on my nerves a bit and I feel like she will be this year's Masters in terms of annoyingness.
learned:
* check the rich guy for a map tattoo
* mykonos, thirteen is a Fleet Foxes fan
* without video games, a kid's life is not worth living
* it's all gone blue, the screen and certain balls
* that boy may still have his eyesight, but a few kittens are dead because of his actions
A few kittens is a small price to pay
I really enjoyed the gift thing between the interns and overall I like the asian doctor who's name I can't bother to remember though at times she seems a bit cartoonish

| I'm pretty let down that this is (what seems to be) 13's final episode. I don't like how the show is shifting so forcefully in so many areas in what feels like an attempt by the writers to keep House on the air. They've lost Cuddy and now 13, Foreman is pretty much playing a new character in the show, and I'm assuming we're going to get a goodbye to Taub, too? (I just can't imagine him coming back into House's life) Who knows about Chase . . . The episode felt bland to me, and while I was excited to see how House would shape its final season, even though it's only 3 episodes in now, I'm already ready for it to be all over. |
Yeah, there are the elements, but there is no chemical today.
Everyone's interactions feels awkward, including the House-Wilson ones.
Park didn't seem so bad when everyone today is equally.
Well..... I was thinking that English is not Charlyne Yi's mother tongue, but clearly I was clearly
wrong after googling. Very surprised by that she can act like that.

i personally liked that 13 is gone. I believe she quit due to the overwhelming amount of fans who hated her character. |

The scene seems to be the best part today. Just as good as when House fired Chase in the trilogy
finale. Both makes me think a lot, too.
I guessed House was expecting 13 to concentrate on his offer ? (Just like every one else.)
I guessed that David Shore might consider the previous season as the last, there was no overall plan
for the next; until FOX wanted House to continue, and the crew have to put things together
again in a hurry, making things very dirty.
I thought I will give Foreman a chance as the Dean. Foreman can be good if he dedicate to it.
I enjoyed this episode. Charlene Yi is awesome in this role, she cracks me up constantly. I am glad the old team has broken up. The show had grown stale and House needed to conclude his relationships with the old dynamic in order to grow and move on. This was obviously Thirteen's "closure" episode, I am glad House let her go in the end - he is growing up. He only wanted her back because he felt it was best for him, as usual not truly considering her, and he reversed himself at the end; big step for that guy.
Honestly, I do not want Chase or Taub to return. House (the show and the character) needed a new ensemble.Unfortunately sanctimonious Foreman is still around. I would have voted him off the island first.

I suppose 13 left because Olivia Wilde is too busy meking movies. As for me, I'm gonna miss her character. I never liked Cameron, I started to hate Cuddy when this show became 'Huddy'. 13 was the only female character I actually loved. She will be missed. |

| i think the whole 13 getting fired was so boring was because they overused house firing her or the team WAY too much. i hated when the show teased us with them getting fired just to bring them back later. It made house seem TOO judgemental about peoples differences when i always saw the root of house as someone who likes to be challanged |
It was watchable but 13's exit was weak and yes she's gone cause she's making movies now the fan hate is totally irrelevant to an actor. We'll we have our hot 13 replacement somewhere between Cameron and 13 on the personality scale we'll see how it works out.
