learned:

* clown crotch shot, and i'm interested

* house arrest, get it?

* apple juice > pee

* so all parents corrupt all kids, except for the kids who are corrupted by not being corrupted...

* okay, so wilson got screwed on the boxing game, but that pizza did look good

I absolutely was bored to death by this episode. I didn't feel anything for the patient's story, and I didn't care one bit about house trying to get to the match. Taub's storyline wasn't very engaging, and the other assistants were just kinda there, at least for me. Hopefully others enjoyed it, but I was counting down the minutes for it to be over.

The Taub storyline was great from the plot to execution,though why both mothers wanted to name their kids Sophie is a bit of a puzzle

House and Foreman conning Wilson out of his tickets was funny though I could swear Wilson tore up the ticket during his sitdown with Foreman

below average episode,

only decent bit was house being nice to adams in ther elevator, trying to get his ankle jewlery off then having to cover his ass and drinking the apple juice / pee also wilson being punked if very cruel ! didn't see it coming till wilson arrived at houses empty place.

taubs actions are pathetic, he was funny in his early days and has always been a soft touch but now this whole 2 baby thing is just painfull to watch, why he's clinging on to the ex wife is retarded, ( he should of grown a bigger pair and let them leave)shes moved on with the internet guy who is also psy whipped.. the only reason taub is back is for this stupid lame plot to be finished off for closure . i kinda hope he sorts things out with the ex nurse now.

chase always has good stuff as does foreman, dr park is still out of place imo.

lets hope this is the last season....

I started to have fun in today's episode. I thought it was because
of the show's quality, which is undoubtedly ascending, but I deduced that
I was wrong. What I thought right was that I started to get back
the old good experience watching the House shows.

Apparently it is time for me to watch the previous shows again for some fun now.

jesse spencer or casey jacobson don't bring any passion to their acting. They are just happy to be there sort of going day by day. They never smile or when they do it feels forced. There are too many cranky guys on the team. House should be the only cranky guy. When it was just the girls you could see they LOVED having this job they are grateful for it and are trying hard. I think when the guys were brought back the writers went right back to the old habits of the last couple seasons rather then keeping it fresh. Chi park is a more interesting character then taub. I never had a problem with taub. He kind of blended in and i didnt feel one way or another with him when he first joined the team but now his problems are too front and center with me. I don't like the adulterer I just don't.

House is still a pretty good show, maybe it does not have the novel feeling from the firsts seasons but still there is enough fuel to burn.

Good enough episode for me the turnabout with the pervert father was unexpected and once again I'm shocked at being able to tolerate Taub.
