  • Part 2: Now What?
    I think Broken creates a dividing line in House's quality. But why?
    Let's find out.

      At about 23 minutes you said that some of the sub-plots didn't really link together. I think I can link some of them from the info you gave (others I'd probably have to watch the whole episode again).
      What does House's Green Card wedding have to do with homelessness? I think it's trying to show the juxtaposition of America bringing more people into the country whilst not being able to provide for those already there.
      How does the crucifixion fit in with Taub suspecting his wife of having an affair, Wilson proposing and Sam breaking up with him, and House fighting with Cuddy? Taub has lost faith in his wife (possibly adultery from lack of commitment), Sam shows a lack of commitment and a loss of faith in her relationship with Wilson (I'm not too sure about the House/Cuddy fight). Loss of faith/lack of commitment have links to religion.

      ....I found you thru this, are you also a XenniaL? ....Hey HOUSE is my FAVE and if not, darn close as a close second or even tied as the only other TV persona I can compare, ever was not even that popular as far as I know with its limited few seasons run due to misfortunes as the show was aces but I would be speaking of DR. Cal Lightman... (Tim Roth) ....can you do this with Lie To Me as they are basically the SAME in many ways even though other ways not so much but I think the major most important reasons, they are or nearly ALL the important ways as close to 100% so I would LOVE too see a Lie To Me version(s) of this if you watched it - if not, you will agree so we will wait... Of course Walter White is great but nobody compares to HOUSE & Dr. Cal Lightman IMO and I will admit over the web, what is the common denominator for ME, what do I envy or maybe miss... (I said maybe...) ... for/about myself - maybe?.... HELP! Great run here.... BTW: HOUSE is so good you could do one on at least FOREMAN and be big if not other characters as well however hoping one day for a Lie To Me .....

      Indeed? I really like her for being kinda nerdy and awkward and disagreeing with House more morally than diagnostically. It worked well that she eventually outgrew House's mentoring and didn't come back.

  • @mr.e1026
    @mr.e1026 Před 2 lety +41

    I like the comparison of Finding Judas and The C Word. They were similar in framework, but in the C Word, 2 stories were going on simultaneously. Wilson was being treated for cancer in House's apartment, and as such, House was unavailable for the diagnostics of the show. At that point in the series, House had one thing left that he cared about, and that is Wilson, who was legit dying before his eyes. I know how that feels personally. Before that, diagnostics medicine was his baby. He had forsaken it once Wilson was dying. House had shown that, in the end, House did love Wilson... probably more than anyone could have. Leading to the next dilemma... House was out, and the team had to go it alone, and in that, a leader presented himself. That episode was to set up that, come the end of the series, Dr. Chase would be taking the place of Dr. House in the post series time line, and Chase proved...AGAIN, why his talents as a diagnostician were as cutting edge as House's. As a matter of fact, in both of those episodes, it was Chase that figured out the illness.
    And I would have totally watched Chase MD if that was a spin-off series. Jesse Spencer made a great Dr. Chase.

  • @typicalamerican2164
    @typicalamerican2164 Před 3 lety +291

    While I do agree there's an uptick in absurdity as the show goes on and an overall decrease in quality, I personally feel the ideal ending isn't at Broken. I think House's post-Broken character arc is at least theoretically great. At the end of season 6, House prepares to use vicodin again because he lost a patient, he can't deal with what life has to offer without the drugs. I feel like the relationship with Cuddie was being built up to for far to long for it not to happen. The relationship should have acted as a temporary crutch for House, but it should have been represented in a more negative light. The show acts like their relationship was perfect, and then it just ends. Instead the relationship should have been difficult, with House refusing to end it because he needs Cuddie. The season should have ended with Cuddie forcibly breaking it off and then leaving (instead of the stupid car crashing). Season 8 was a great season for me because it shows House's downward spiral. The ending was great for me because it shows House was wrong. House couldn't fix himself for himself, but he could change for Wilson. He stepped up, sacrificing his career in order to spend time with Wilson.

      Typical American
      I agree the relationship with Cuddie needed to happen, (and I loved it). It also could have been done better, but hindsight I suppose. The car crash was a crazy but I suppose they were trying to show how angry/broken House was about losing Cuddie. I liked that he changed for Wilson, I think that’s the best way to end things, but thought the fake dying in the building was a bit over the top. That said, the funeral scene where he texts Wilson with “SHUT UP YOU IDIOT” was classic. 😆

      You must have watched the wrong show, because their rship was clearly portrayed as toxic. If you notice, cuddy and house brought out the worst in each other, the manipulation and games were at their peak during their time together & it even started getting out of control & dangerous(like secretly switching arlene cuddys course of treatment, house saying its fine if people die as long as he gets to be happy with cuddy), so much so that it culminated into house driving his car into her home because of the level of jealousy & hurt it brought of house. I think they did a good job in showing that these two were eventually never going to work out.

    The problem with a lot of TV series involving police, firefighters, paramedics etc. is that the early seasons focus mainly on the job of whatever the main characters are doing. Then during the later series, they mainly focus on character development. The shows go from a medical drama with some character background to a soap opera set in a hospital. It probably doesn't help when the salaries of the stars get higher and higher, reducing the amount of money available for effects. (You also get writers making changes for change's sake.)

  • @JimNH777

    After Broken and especially after break up with Cuddy I'd say it's just creators having fun. It is a fan service so it's fun to watch but they just throw whatever they want, most crazy ideas, pranks, bizarre scenarios - earlier is way more down to earth, realistic.
    But I'd say Broken wasn't the episode House should've ended. For me it was last episode of S6. When he's sitting in the bathroom holding vicodin I was extremely disappointed it was Cuddy who showed up. I thought it'd be perfect if it was actually Chase, Foreman and Wilson. His karaoke buddies. That would show that House is able to form friendships, that he's managing and "you can't always get what you want but you might find you get what you need" could be played. That would be perfect character Arc. House not getting what he wanted but learning to be a much better person even with pain. Instead we got Cuddy who decided on relationship after decades of knowing him, relationship that was doomed to fail and 1.5 last seasons of pure out of reality fun service. It wasn't bad but getting everything House wanted and then putting him where he was at the beginning of Season 1 was basically scratching the whole character arc. What was the point of his battling addiction, therapy, opening yourself, dealing with pain etc (basically what was the point of a whole "Broken" episode) if in the end it didn't matter.

    for me, the middle of season 7 is where the show died for me. it's where cuddy and house broke up and didn't want to watch the eps after that. usually the end of season 6 is where I end my binge. 7 and 8 is just...not for me.

    • @thewateringwiz7118
      @thewateringwiz7118 Před 3 lety +9

      I hated the break up. People try to explain and justify it but for me it felt like a hasty and badly constructed way of having Lisa start making her way out of the show. Just a stupid idea overall

  • @Dwumper
    @Dwumper Před 3 lety +9

    I personally loved season 6, maybe I'd say it's even my favorite. We could see house trying to change, his relationship with Wilson being explored more deeply and he was flashed out more in general, giving "broken" a point. I was less fond of seasons 7 and 8 but I'd say both had redeeming qualities and while the formula was getting a little tired the underlying base with house at it's center was still solid. They could have stopped at broken, it would have been a nice finale, but looking back at all of it, I personally think it served the series and it's memory better that they didn't stop there, even if the later seasons had a few weak spots.

    This series is amazing. In this installment, the author's casual familiarity with every moment of the show is really noticeable in number of cut scenes that tend to assume that the viewer really remembers the context of the scene.

    I will say this though, and i know im gonna catch flak for it, but i seriously wouldve continued to follow the show if they picked up where they left off at the end of Season 8 with Chase taking over. After following Chase intensely from season to season, he is the ONLY person that could ever fill Houses shoes. He IS extremely good at diagnosing thanks to his experience on the team and his surgical stints, not to mention there would always be a rivalry between foreman and chase, just not sexual tension like house and cuddy...
    i dont know man, just after everything that has happened, i would have seriously continued on with Chase front and center

    I’ve also noticed how a lot of tv shows (especially comedies) become more and more absurd as the seasons go on. How I met your mother was quirky but grounded in the beginning, but by the end every character transformed into their own caricatures. The same thing with The big bang theory (although I stopped watching after 3 or 4 season), The office, or even Stranger things.
    It seems like there’s little show runners can do to prevent it, except for stopping the show while it’s still not too late. But it’s rarely happens.

    • @TheCowardRobertFord
      @TheCowardRobertFord Před 3 lety

      In The Office's case, that seemed to be connected with Daniel and Schur leaving at the end of s04 to do Parks & Rec. Paul Lieberstein played down the more realistic tone.

    @multi.instrumentalist Před 9 měsíci +1

    I like the later seasons for their less cohesive episodes. It’s good to feel like there’s lots of things going on, like characters have lives that don’t all coincidentally relate to each other all the time. It can get in the way of a character’s development, to only flesh them out when it’s completely thematically relevant. Although, it is also nice to have the different plots mirror each other and have similar paving and emotional paths. But I feel like it’s ok to do one without always doing the other.

    Well, "The C Word" is an important stepping stone in establishing Chase(another C Word worth mentioning) as a diagnosis team leader(with "Post Mortem" almost working as the finishing piece), while House, one of the parental figures in “Finding Judas”, is out.
    Funnily enough, in this weaker counterpart to the "Judas" episode, both of the mirror parental figures(House and Cuddy) are out of dramatic commission, so it could interesting to make a case(bountiful with innuendos) for Cuddy as another "C Word". Had she been present in this ultimate season, she would have dealt with the infant patient in "The C Word" episode in a way worthy of contrast and showing character development regarding her "Judas" episode days. That might have been an interesting vein to explore.
    But with both of the mirror parental figures out, the team continues to endure the growing pains of having to outlive House(who has now been long expecting his trusted trainee Chase to unburden him of HAVING to be The Boss) and "outsource" House's genius medical takes, with Chase in both cases proving to be the indoors solution to the problem. House amazingly passes on the puzzling medical challenge provided by the overzealous Treiber and entrusts it and the future of his medical legacy to Chase once more in "Post Mortem". House is the elephant in the room, “The H Word” not (if rarely) spoken. In this diptych of episodes, Chase finally willfully(!) escapes House's fatherly and cozy grasp.
    "The C Word" is a quite straightforward, sometimes apparently unripe and plain episode even from a directing standpoint (which is intentionally[?] efficient in showing how Chase's leadership can ALSO lead to a smooth and natural resolution of a case, opposite to the more chaotic, accidental and Housesque formula of "Post Mortem") but I think there's some more meat to it than it might appear at first: the patient’s parents question HOW and HOW WELL they've spent the sparse time they've had with their loving daughter and how they've related to her throughout the years(either as parentdaughter or rogue doctor/scientistpatient/experiment), while Wilson throws "everything but the kitchen sink" around in a last ditch effort to reject that House is all he has, to face that his daydreams' wife and family wouldn't do what House (also) criminally DID for him, while he questions the hypocrisy and irony of his survivalist efforts to fight and deny his cancerous fate and he struggles not to (already) embrace a type of House/”Kyle Calloway” nihilism and self-destructive and hedonistic pulses that will assail him in "Post Mortem". House, for once and having already concluded throughout the seasons that he can't live without Wilson(as he outwardly confesses in the bus ride home in "Post Mortem"), remains mute, lets Wilson throw his much justified tantrum and gratuitously hurt him* and lets Wilson almost unilaterally(for the first time!) reassess and review their relationship, Wilson finishing the episode with a now "hands-on"/internal/organic(!) acknowledgement of House's pain and way of life(«Wilson: So the way I felt...You feel that -what? Most of the time?? Really does suck being you, doesn't it?»).
    * Wilson: Why me? I'm always telling my patients not to torture themselves because there's no answer.
    House: Sound advice.
    Wilson: It's cruel advice. They were just trying to make sense of what was happening to them and I'm there telling them not to bother? I should have spent my life being more like you. Should have been a manipulative, self-centered, narcissistic ass who brought misery to everything and everyone in his life.
    House: You'd still have cancer.
    Wilson: Yeah, but at least I'd feel like I deserved it.

  • @JonathanNichollstechandsuch8

    I complexity agree on the point that the medical mysteries of season 6 onwards were on the whole less interesting - or at least less relevant to the emotional core of the episode. But, at the same time, I loved what they were able to explore the characters on a deeper level, especially House. Season 8 was kind of an outlier because both the medical mysteries were uninteresting and the character drama wasn’t as good as some of the previous seasons, but what it did with the final three episodes - showing so brilliantly that connection between House and Wilson - made up for it.

      That's probably for the best. If you were a viewer invested in a cool patient story, you were fucked, since I think they got less interesting over time, while still making up a decent chunk of the episode.

    I have never seen an excellent dissertation of House MD until today. I must agree with your point on the series should have ended then and there. House is not the only show that suffers from extended seasons after its perfect conclusion; there are other shows like Smallville, Charmed, One Life To Life, Scooby-Doo (50 years), General Hospital, Supernatural, etc. After so many seasons the later episodes lack that uniqueness or creative ideas, and they recycle the old material hoping the viewers won't notice. Other than that, I do love the fact that House MD lasted for eight seasons. After Wilson died I went outside my apartment and screamed in anger. Afterwards, I felt like having a drink.
