if you're within the healthcare field you'd realize how dumb and inaccurate the show is, but then again, most medical shows are

>House and the team start speaking entirely in medical jargon

Well no shit, if it was accurate it would be boring as fuck.

>not learning about medicine from the show

>tv show made for redneck americans
Yeah I think we get it, user.

Your IQ is no higher than 110. I know that for a fact.

>watched all the whole seasons twice
>I'm a medical doctor now

>pig liver transplant
>PAs doing labwork in every episode
>house not being fired 999999 years ago

Pretty sure House could insist that his PA's do all the lab work

You could plausibly say that House doesn't get fired because he has higher ups always covering for him.

Pig liver, that's fair

>what if Sherlock Holmes was actually a doctor?

yawn

Why was House cleared to do surgical procedures? Why were any of them cleared actually? Only Chase and Foreman were surgeons

>pig liver transplant

t:brainlet

>tfw you'd rather rewatch episodes of House than watch anything new

No physician or PAs have the kind of time they spend on House. Labwork is done by lab services, not doctors.

Foreman was a neurologist and Chase was revealed to be trained in literally every medical specialty as the show went on and they stopped giving any fucks about realism, I think they said he was a surgeon, neurosurgeon, intensivist and cardiologist, he was also dabbling in psychiatry and doing transplantations iirc

show is so comfy

Season 6 episode 1 was the last good episode

Based Chase, was second only to House.

If your criticism is:
>HUURR DURR ITS UNREALISTIC
or
>HURR DURR ITS FORMULAIC
Then, Im sorry to say, you dont get the show at all.

every episode

>some patient has a mortal problem
>cant figure it out

What's there to get? House being an extremely likeable character is the only reason this show was successful.

You mean Hugh Laurie being the hottest men alive.

there's nothing to get at all, he's a gary stu and an unbelievable genius he reminds me of every phil professor i've ever had

>the both of you have a combined IQ of over 300
was that what cuddy said? i cant quite recall

Where did you go to school?

OP please stop being such a faggot and don't ruin House for us devoted fans by making it into your personal attempt to feel better about yourself.

It's Sherlock Holmes with medicine. That's cool. Many people love Sherlock Holmes.

Now shut the fuck up.

BRAVO ACD

I gotta say, House would NOT have worked with ANY other actor but Hugh Laurie. He's probably the only person who can make a character like House so extremely likeable.

Imagine anyone else doing what House did and still being likeable.

Imagine madds as house

He woulda just been creepy and off-putting. In a really, really entertaining way and cool, but it wouldn't work with the show.

I think Ian Mcshane could've pulled it off

got old pretty fast. every episode follows same formula.

It was Scooby Doo for adults.

> in english doc

"it explains everything"

"Treating them will kill them!" "Not treating them will kill them worse!"

"Foreman, I hired you because you are a nigger who breaks into everything." *Every episode thereafter everybody will be willing to break into anybody's apartment.*

Cuddy tries to do everything to stop house from doing something that will kill the patient (even though this has literally never happened), house goes around her and saves the patient. NEXT EPISODE Cuddy tries to do everything to stop house from doing something that will kill the patient (even though this has literally never happened).

Medical inaccuracies are probably the SMALLEST flaw in this movie. Actually pay attention to any one episode, literally nothing makes sense.

>Sherlock Holmes always finds that one solution that ties everything neatly

BRAVO ONCE MORE ADC

But most of the shit they talk about is basic medicine stuff, i wouldnt blame you to not being able to figure the puzzles out, but the jargon?

Most of the stuff is high school biology, general knowledge, explained in the show or understood with context.

I could honestly see some asshole trying to be House and they just make themselves look like a dumbass with a leg problem.

I think it's a case of RDJ and Iron Man.

There are plenty of better actors than him, plenty of people more talented objectively.

But nobody in the world could have made Iron Man what he made him to be.

show had its moments

>tfw dressed like House and tried to talk like him in high school

...

It was good for a while, but it kinda dragged on.

Shame Backstrom never took off, it reminded me of House with a little more emotional weight and comedy at the right times.

Why is it that most British people are repulsively ugly but the ones that aren't ugly are extremely good looking

It's like they have no average looking people.

no you're a redditor

WW1 and WW2

Isn't that the point of the department though? There's a team of doctors assigned to one or two patients at a time so they probably have time to do the lab work

Every time I watch House I notice I start adopting a low, monotonous, annoyed voice when I talk to people. It's uncanny.

>backstrom
excellent taste my nigga

Great Britain has had and still has the greatest class divide in the world.

The vast majority of upper class people in Britain, including all royalty, bankers and elite are of Germanic/Frankish/Nordic origin.

I thought that the "Anglo" banking elites were mostly Jewish.

EVERY EPISODE:
>weirdest cases in country are within driving distance of House's hospital
>House doesn't want the case
>then he does
>House makes diagnosis
>Cuddy and medical team freak out and tell House that he's out of control and shouldn't risk the patients life
>Medical staff try their treatment and patient almost dies
>they admit House is right
>House offers treatment
>again, Cuddy and medical staff bitch
>House proves his treatment through some epiphany
>patient is saved
EVERY. FUCKING. EPISODE

Hugh Laurie and Roger Waters are the only people I know of who actually got better looking as they aged.

His major was Intensivist and his secondary experience was surgery(Heart surgery) so really it was only two things. The thing you're memeing about is the arc from season 4 where he puts House under to walk through his damaged/forgotten memories.

That was really only unrelated thing. He started working on other types of surgery while being in surgery but that fits everything you said in a non-memey way

Chase's progression/experience is probably the most realistic of all the doctors on the show ironically, way to pick your battle's user.

Now relax your anus

they say multiple times in the show that Houses departament is one of a kind in the world. and having hands on approach to lab work instead of trusting random people fits Houses character. people not getting that the show is not depicting average doctors even after multiple doctor characters make fun/get annoyed at House and his team because they're always fucking around not doing any work and an entire arc in one of the earlier seasons dedicated to the owner of the hospital who wants to shut down the departament because they are a money black hole that barely treats anyone honestly are brainlets.

Watson isn't stereotypical at all.
Watson also doesn't 'always try to stop Holmes from doing something that will kill himself or something'. His opium addiction is played up in more contemporary interpretations (BBC Sherlock and Elementary come to mind) but in most of the stories it's basically non-existent.

Most Holmes stories didn't have chapters either as they were usually serialized as short stories.

I guess you must have been reading the stories by this ADC instead of Arthur Conan Doyle.

...of Germanic origin

Rothschilds are German, after alll.

This isn't a point about attractiveness, I'm just making the general point of the class divide in Britain which is HUGE and also explains the attractiveness divide - why there's a small portion of the population that is incredibly attractive, but the vast majority is horrendous.

Read around British actresses. Off the top of my head:

>Natalie Dormer has norweigian ancestry
>Kate Beckinsale's mom has a norweigian family name, her dad is a quarter Burmese
>Audrey Hepburn was Dutch + Austrian
>Cara DELEVINGNE

Just look at British actresses in general, I can't remember more attractive ones.

I distinctly remember going to uni in the UK and the women there. I was absolutely shocked with how horrific the average woman was and not just in looks but also bearing-wise. I'm pretty above average and am very good with women, so I'd go for the top ones, those that stuck out. I distinctly remember not a single one of them turned out to be of British descent - except one that I'm 100% sure was a polish jew. Motivated me to be curious about this and found out Britain really is the nation with the biggest class divide in the world.

>Watson also doesn't 'always try to stop Holmes from doing something that will kill himself or something'
>His opium addiction is played up in more contemporary interpretations

Wait so you're telling me House is doing an interpretation of the Sherlock Holmes story in a similar way others did an interpretation of the story when transferring it to a different medium?

How shocking and entirely dismissing my point. I suppose we truly cannot compare House to Sherlock Holmes, but only to its interpretations on this different medium which totally disprove the point that it's as good a tribute as possible for a television series.

house was a really cool character. a shame they had a procedural show. still loved it

I had never heard of it until I was browsing the crime section on Netflix, it autoplayed and listening to him talk to his doctor sold me on it, by the time my gf and I finished the series the next day I found myself choking up at the ending.

Really really sad it never caught on, 0 closure at all.

But Jews are ugly though.

>it's a get me an MRI, CT scan, liver biopsy, and start him on broad spectrum antibiotics episode

>tfw spend teen years watching a show about an anti-social, lonely, and miserable man.

>tfw im not an anti-social, lonely, miserable man

No, but maybe as a guest patient with some prions in his brain that would be spoopy

Was a good show

House was not anti-social ya dingus

dammit i mean AM a lonely miserable man

FUCKING RUINED

Our guy.

oh yes he was

The problem with House was there was never any character who was on his level to challenge him. He was like this nihilist superhero and nobody could touch him. Just once I would have liked to see a patient who was as smart as House but had a completely different worldview for House to spar with.

Also that one time they find out he surgically turned himself into a pickle went a bit too far.

Read the third line of my post.

I rage when I see him, never have I hated anyone more than this piece of shit

>hurr you save lives but it makes me feel bad how you do it I will dedicate my life to ruining you and everything you have

top jej

>successful, highly praised doctor who functions perfectly well in society
>"anti-social"
Being grumpy and rude to people does not make you anti-social.

Cuddy outsmarted him enough times. Women have a way of leveling the playing field.

so every episode

...

No she didn't. She was a dumb bitch and House constantly made her look like the fool she was. House dominated everyone in the show.

The show needed a guest character who was kind of like House but with a different world view so that House could finally meet his match.

The thanksgiving episode where she tricked him into going to an empty house is the first thing that comes to mind.

There was a lot of little things like that where she outplayed him.

If you're going to act condescending you could at least have the decency to not be completely wrong about what it is you're saying.

Your initial post( ) suggested that criticisms directed at House were not valid because they were following the same conventions as the original stories by """"ADC""" whoever the fuck that is.

My post clarified that you are in fact a retard, since the original stories did not follow the same conventions you had projected onto them in order to defend House.

You then latched on to a relatively minor point, misinterpreted it, then used that misinterpretation to rationalize that your previous defense of '""""ADC""" (whoever the fuck that is) did it too so it's okay!!!' was somehow not completely retarded.

Just in case that was all a little much for you; I'll restate it plainly.

"You have obviously never read any of Conan Doyle's original Holmes stories. Everything you know about the character (and thus, all the connections that you are drawing between Holmes and House) is derived from shitty pop culture knockoffs and more or less invalidate you from any proper discussion of how Conan Doyle's character relates to House.

Since you seem to enjoy pathetically minor nitpicks, House is NOT doing an 'interpretation' of the Holmes stories.
>it's as good a tribute as possible for a television series.
Peter Cushing's interpretation was better on the most fronts and even that wasn't "as good a tribute as possible for a television series" you sensationalizing twat.

I think they mixed it up with a couple different episodes here and there just enough to keep you wondering

There are several patients who are flat-out smarter than House in some aspects, like the genius who dumbs himself down with cough syrup or the chess prodigy.

Plus it was Wilson's job to competently spar with House on most subjects, from the ethics of his work to the somewhat fucked-up worldview House maintained that made him who he is. Also I guess Cameron was there to make sad eyes and be naive in the first few seasons.

Underrated post

>herp derp I am the infallible Dr House
>is it lupus?
>run a series of tests as the patient's condition gets progressively worse
>suddenly House gets the answer from a trivial subplot with a supporting cast member
>throw in the occasional episode where the patient dies

That's all there is.

The asshole kid who played chess?

>The thanksgiving episode where she tricked him into going to an empty house

That was pretty goddamn harsh. Just threaten him with more clinic hours or something, Cuddy, I mean shit.

The guy was dedicated to being in her business so she took measures to keep him occupied.

She did make sure he got a sandwich.

Quite a few of my family has worked in hospitals the majority of their working careers. The show's amusing but

1) House's job isn't real and doesn't exist.

2) He would be fired on the first day.

3) What they don't show is fighting with insurance companies or how little time doctors actually spend with patients.

Insurance companies are pure fucking evil and they will fight just about everything they can, even for emergency medical surgeries. They're hot fucking garbage. Also, the majority of ER visits aren't even emergencies. They're mostly fucking junkies, people faking an emergency to get a quick fix or hypochondriacs.

Pic related on constantly bringing up my typo.

>the original stories did not follow the same conventions you had projected onto them in order to defend House.

They had them to a significantly smaller level, rather focusing on writing up a mystery. Something that works on a medium such as literature but does not work on a medium such as television, as proven by shows like Elementary and Sherlock. In television characters and relationships shine the most, hence making these stand out. In essence, its that part of Sherlock Holmes translated into television.

>House is NOT doing an 'interpretation' of the Holmes stories.

The creators of House literally stated so. "Wilson" is not a coincidental name.

House is a play on words of the name "Holmes". Homes -> House. House lives in 221B Baker street. Holmes shares quarters with Watson before he gets married. House shares his home with Wilson after Wilson gets divorced. House playing piano was a play on Holmes playing violin.

That's off the top of my head.

>Peter Cushing's interpretation was better on the most fronts

That's your opinion, not backed by anything.

Also it's retarded to compare a series of that time with a series of this time. I'm comparing it to Sherlock and Elementary in being a Sherlock Holmes story.

Yes, I'm sure it'd be massively interesting if he was a regular hospital worker who mostly filled paperwork and dealt with boring, routine emergency visits, keeping quiet and following protocol so he wouldn't get fired and half the show was him talking about insurance.

Do your friends work at teaching hospitals? I think it would be plausible for a job like House's to exist. Just not one in every single hospital
