Call a doctor

Skybird · 12-20-07, 04:58 PM

In the past three weeks , I have watched my first three episodes of "Dr. House". Now I am addicted. Usually I love doctor serials like I love Ebola, but this series is great, with a fantastic main character and at least some very interesting second line characters to balance the main one. that kind of black humour is almost incredible, and extremely dry. Nevertheless, there is some depth in it that bypasses the emotional hysteria you usually expect from hospital series. Considering now to order the DVD sets sicne I missed almost all the stuff on TV. Cant wait to see more of him offending collegues and patients, and picking his student doctors apart.

Very good actor, I realised. Is he a known name in England or America? For me, he was totally new.

He reminds me a bit of my psychopathology prof, who also was a well-meaning, but biting old dog. He said "Never believe what they try to tell you." Sounds familiar, eh? :rotfl:

Am I the only fan here?

No, I also a fan of the series. I whating for the 4º season episodes to begin here in Portugal. I know that in the US the season goes in the 11 eps or something. And after a problem with Fox and the chanel that transmits the series here, we have to wait a little longer to see. But it will be soon.
Also, what makes me laugh is watching Hugh Laurie in Black Hadder, so young and doing all those crazy rolles, and thinking, hey, it's doctor House...

Yeah we get it. Probably the only hospital type show i'll watch since Becker ended.

(Scrubs was good but it bores me)

Plus I don't like the 100% serious ones, too depressing.
