Analyzing "Euphoria" - House MD - Is this the Best House MD Episode Ever? [Episode 6]
My second mini cut at the 2-parter episodes, Euphoria stars Omar Epps as a troubled teen trying to navigate his way through the - oops, wrong Euphoria.
One of the earlier House MD entries that still holds up really well, Euphoria asks the question - would my friends throw me off a bridge if they thought I was sick?
Okay, kidding. Kind of. This is one of the earlier gems of the show, and we'll analyze what happens, what makes it good - and what makes it stinkier. Happy to report we got some more good stuff coming too - a few more to this 'best house' series, and then we'll move back to what I enjoy most - deep character analysis. Wahoo!

My first stab at the 2-parter episodes, Broken opened season 6 with House away from his team, Cuddy, and his hubby Wilson. After a huge mental break, House willingly commits himself to Mayfield - where he helps Lin-Manuel Miranda write Hamilton and assists Franka Potente after she was beaten up by Jason Bourne. He then has to convince Captain Holt to give him back his astronaut license, which o...

    I take issue with Erdheim Chester being the one diagnosis that is criticized. The episode makes a point that he had a previous patient where he eventually figured out that might have been the problem, but could never prove it. So, when the same case pops up, he's already familiar with it, despite everybody else not believing him at all. That is one of the few times it's justified that he would be familiar with it.

  • @secondheaven9545
    @secondheaven9545 Před měsícem

    House is always characterized by how mean he is. Throughout the series though, you always see him watching patients from a distance, making sure his squad’s okay. How is a one in a lifetime character, the perfect level of complexity to make him feel human while establishing that he’s not a nice guy. My favorite moment from House is probably him with Sean when his wife died during the surgery for the tumor. It was a heartbreaking scene, but such a touching one because it shows House making it clear that he understands Sean’s terrified, but that he also knows that he needs to be quick, otherwise Sean will lose two precious lives to him. It’s such a great scene.
