finale what, part two.
*continues with the breathing*
I'm not saying that House & Cuddy was a bad idea. It's about damn time! But I feel like House needs to deal with his addiction before he can be in a relationship. I felt like they were doing a good job in season six for a while and then the wheels fell off on that particular plot point.
Now he's just an ass. And thank God he still has Wilson, because he's alienated and probably destroyed his relationship with the only other person who truly loves him and will put up with his bullshit. I believe that Cuddy loves him. She just can't watch him self-destruct. And frankly, neither can I. I love the show, I can't watch it turn into a pile of shit.
I believe that any great show has to have three things in order to survive: a timeslot that doesn't suck, believable writing, and actors who can bring their "A" game, every single week. House had pretty much, like 90 percent of it. I've stopped watching for the medical stuff, it just confuses me. House had great writing, a good timeslot, and a team of actors who can BRING IT, the trifecta, as far as I'm concerned. As much as I love Hugh, Lisa, RSL, they can only do so much. The writing HAS to be there. And for a while, it hasn't been. Ever since House had to get loaded to deal with Cuddy's surgery, I've had a yucky "uh-oh" feeling.
So I don't know. I'm just DONE. And it hurts, because this is a show that I love, that has been good in the past and I believe it has the potential to be again. I just can't invest my time in it if it's not going to give me what I want. Maybe the whole "the shine is off the diamond" thing is somewhat motivated by Lisa leaving, but I believe that's not it. Until it can show me that it can be a mixture of funny, sexy, mind-boggling FUN, I'm done. I don't even want to watch S8. Worst. Finale. Ever.
