House season finale: "No Reason"

[bironic]

For once, I really like the ep title.

Wilson's been the most disappointing character for me the last half of this season. First season, they hung out, played nickel basketball and other stupid games, ate lunch together. Wilson was always wandering in on House's clinic patients. This season, ever since Wilson's moved out, there's been none of that. I realize that RSL could care less what his screen time is, but they wrote Wilson as House's best friend and I've just not been seeing that these past couple of episodes. All Wilson seems to do these days is give speeches to let the viewer have some insight into House's mind. There's very little feeling there for me. *very bitter*

And it's so hot-and-cold, so we never know whether to expect him to be there in every other scene or for 30 seconds twice. "House vs. God" was practically his episode, and then right after with "Sleeping Dogs Lie" and again tonight we hardly see him. :(

[descrime]

yeah, it's like either Wilson owns the B plot or he's nonexistant. I'd rather just have some consistency. (I lie. I love House v God. ^^;;)

Shades of something there at the end when everyone is doing everything in their power to keep House from performing an action that would make him wake up. I keep thinking it's a Deep Space Nine episode, but I don't know which-maybe the one where Bashir's been sent into a coma by an alien and he has to repair the station in his head as a symbol for restoring his own failing body, but I don't think that's it. Anyone?

I'm thinking it's the episode towards the end of the last season when Bashir is essentially trapped in his own mind and his hallucinations are being controlled by the rather dull and pallid man from Section 31 (which I keep wanting to call Section 8 - and dude, why do ALL the other species on Star Trek have secret services that kick the ASS of the one that's supposed to be for the entire Federation?). I can't remember what he's supposed to do, though. It's been ages since I've seen the show.

And damn and blast. Really wanted the episode to be arranged so that he DID punch Wilson for some reason. Cop-out.

Hm, I don't think that's it; I hardly remember it. His name's Sloan BTW, and Section 31 was a rogue Starfleet organization originally instated as a watchdog or security committee and ended up under no jurisdiction but its own, paralleling Romulus' Tal Shiar or Cardassia's Obsidian Order.

The punch was SUCH a cop-out. But. Wilson's reaction was excellent, and it was followed with this creepy little line where Wilson goes, "Are you hallucinating?" and then says again, "I mean, are you hallucinating right now?" and it's in Moriarty's voice.

[catilinarian]

Yes, but the Tal Shiar and the Order are COOLER. :)

[bironic]

No argument there. Although that episode was great where Sloan, to borrow House's phrasing, "manipulated the hell out of" Bashir and the Romulan Senator and faked his own death in the end.

Has "House vs. God" aired yet, or what?

Do you need someone to do a read-through of your paper tonight?

[bironic]

OMG could you? I could send it to you RIGHT NOW.

[synn]

Of course. I just figured I'd hear from you when you wanted another set of eyes on it (ah, memories of house).
Send it along : )

House/Cameron robot surgery foreplay with voyeur was just about the hottest thing I've seen on TV in a looooooong time.

It disturbs me how much I'm liking the idea of House/Cameron at the moment.

I want you to go read this and come back with something nice in the fall. Word.
