OKAY SO I JUST FINISHED EVERYTHING. AND I HAVE STUFFS TO FUCKING SAY.
Blooper Reel
- LISA HAS THE BEST LAUGH EVER.
- She clearly needs to fuck up more so she gets more time on the blooper reel. STOP BEING SO GOOD AT YOUR JOB, DAMN IT.
- LMFAO HUGH KNOCKING ALL OF THAT SHIT IN THE PHARMACY OVER AND FLAILING OUT OF THE WAY.
- why the fuck does there seem to be a trampoline outside of Cuddy's bedroom window?
- lol the masturbating. I DIED.
- "Tell her I say hi! TELL HER I SAY HI!" lolol omg cute. I wanna know what Lisa does to make Hugh smile before she leans in frame. WATCH - he's watching her and then all of the sudden he completely lights up.
- Jesse and his glove! poor thing lol. I need an anicon that says "FAIL!" on it.
- I've NEVER heard Lisa laugh so hard as she did during the masturbation outtake and then when RSL says "fuck you, fuck you!" or whatever the hell he says. NEVER. I love that she finds that shit the funniest of everything.
- LMAO TAPEWORM!PENIS.
- I. NEED. MORE. WHY THE FUCK ARE OUR BLOOPERS SO SHORT. THE OFFICE HAS FUCKING LONG BLOOPER REELS.
Angry Valley Girls
- LOL I THINK IT'S ALREADY BEEN MADE PRETTY FUCKING CLEAR HOW MUCH I FUCKING LOVE THIS. I FUCKING WISH THEY WOULDN'T HAVE FUCKING BLEEPED OUT THE BAD FUCKING LANGUAGE. LOL AT LEAST THEY FUCKING LEFT LISA'S FUCKING "BITCH" IN.
- JEN IS FUCKING CUTE. LISA IS TOO OBV, BUT I'M NOT SO SURPRISED AT THAT. LOL I LOVE WHEN SHE SAYS "less fucking depressed!" LOL I also love when she goes, "WELL NOW YOU'VE FUCKING DONE IT." and Lisa looks up all fucking confused. LOL WATCH IT, WATCH FOR LISA'S FACE. IT'S THE FUCKING CUTEST EVER. And the way her head moves. I die.
- SHE SO REMINDS ME OF GILLIAN ANDERSON, TOWARDS THE END WHEN HER AND JEN ARE BY THE DOOR AND SHE STARTS SAYING 'FUCK' EVERY OTHER WORD AND HER MOUTH IS HUGE AND SHE'S NOT REALLY SMILING, BUT ALL I SEE IS TEETH? THERE. LOOK AND TELL ME.
Anatomy of an Episode - The Jerk
- It made me feel so messed up in the head. It made me feel like I do when I have about 500 things that I have to do that I don't even know how to do. I had no idea how much goes into every single episode.
- LOL LISA AND HER ARRYTHMIA (SP. CLEARLY.) LINE. ILHER. And then lmao when she like, gestures like she's shooting herself in the head.
- THOSE SHOTS OF HER IN THE RED COAT HOLDING COFFEE. I DIED OF CUTE. SOMEBODY CAP THIS PLZ. I would LOVE to have a crew follow her around! I want to know what her day is like, esp since she has probably the least screentime of anyone.
- THE CHESS GAME. THEY ACTUALLY CHOREOGRAPHED A CHESS GAME WHEN THEY TOTALLY DIDN'T EVEN NEED TO. See, okay. And this goes for all of the special features - the cast and crew of this show is SO. AMAZING. They are perfectionists and so concerned with detail and they are so committed to getting everything right, that they go above and beyond and do things that they don't have to do. THAT is why this show is so great. All of that stuff that we never even think about or notice, somehow works its way into the back of our minds and ties in with all of the obvious stuff to create this whole amazing complete package.
Band from TV
- I had no idea they did this all for charity. I love Hugh, but tbh, he's not my area of expertise with this show. So it was nice to see him in this element because I often don't go out of my way to learn about him. I LOVE THAT HE WENT ON A 3 DAY HUNGER STRIKE LOL.
- It was awesome to see him singing.
- The whole atmosphere of the band just seems really great.
- And whatever the main guy was saying, Greg?, about how it's like a business that you don't care if it succeeds or fails because either way, you're having fun. And it just doesn't get any better than that. I REALLY REALLY LOVED THAT. And I love that they are able to have something like that - something that they love that is also benefitting other people. Everybody wins, I can't possibly find a loss in this.
Open House: The Production Office
- THIS WAS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE BTS THING. I LOVED seeing all of the writers. I love that I have kind of paid attention to who writes what and analyzed what kind of eps each person tends to make. It was so great to physically SEE their faces. Lawrence Kaplow is my favorite, and I'm so glad they showed him.
- I. LOVE. HOW MANY WOMEN SEEM TO BE INVOLVED IN THE SHOW. When Katie (who is like djfsdjjsdhfa the #1 of said amazing women) is walking around the offices, I was so surprised at how many women there are. It's so fucking empowering, seriously. More of them than I expected. That must be why the show is so damn good. LMAO JK. /feminist!liss.
- ALL OF THEIR LITTLE OFFICES AND WHITEBOARDS. SUCH FUCKING LOVE.
Blood, Needles, and Body Parts: The House Prop Department
- SO. FUCKING. COOL.
- I want one of those blood scaplels. AND A BODY CAVITY - I WAS WONDERING HOW THEY DID ALL THAT SHIT WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ACTUALLY DIG INTO PEOPLE LOL.
- Even tho those parts are fake/"synthetic", I think they'd still be a little gross to touch because they look so damn real lol.
Half-Wit Commentary with Shore & Jacobs
- I basically really love Katie Jacobs now.
- I LOVE how much thought they put into everything. Like that piano piece. I love how they can find ways to put their behind-the-scenes people physically into the scene. They took their composer's unfinished piece from like, high school and put it in and finished it. And not only that, but provided a direct parallel between the composer's RL and House's. Saying that he wrote the piece when he was younger and never finished it.
- They need to do commentary on every episode because I pick up so much more hearing their notes and why they did what they did. Either I never even noticed, or I noticed a certain degree of awesome but could never pinpoint what it was.
- I love hearing about how the script evolved. For example, how Hugh thought if he said "Are we gonna hug?" to Foreman, that it'd be stepping on Chase's upcoming scene. So he took out the word "hug" and replaced it with a gesture.
- I was having such a panic attack for like... the whole episode because I was so fucking nervous for the House/Cuddy hug scene. Like, it was a bad panic attack, I was surprised at how worked up/nervous I was.
- FUCK YOU GUYS FOR TAKING OUT HOUSE'S LINE TO CUDDY ASKING HER TO MOVE HER KNEE SO HE COULD SEE UP HER ROBE ALL THE WAY TO THE PROMISED LAND. FUCK FUCK FUCK YOU ALL.
- ABOUT THE SCENE AT CUDDY'S HOUSE: "They're good together." // "I love this." // "I love that she smiles." - "She enjoys him." // "And he enjoys her." skjdhflaksjhdfadskjhfakjshfak jskdhfasjhf sjdhf skjhf jdskhfajhf jsdhfask please and thank you. This, to me, was like, verbal confirmation (lol as if they haven't said it already), that they can't possibly ignore House/Cuddy, even though it may have never been in their original plans. THANK YOU GUYS, FOR SEEING THE LIGHT. THANKS.
- The pillow that Dave Matthews was holding. "Wanna talk about that pillow?" Katie tells us that the design of that pillow was meant to be the POTW's family before the bus accident. We only see the thing for two fucking seconds, but they STILL thought about it and went to all of that trouble. THAT is why this show is so fucking good.
- I love that Katie Jacobs still remembers everything she took out. "We had to cut this scene so much. Do you still remember the lines we pulled?" // "I remember all of them." jksjfda I love her.
- I LOVE HOW SHE JUST THINKS ABOUT SHIT. LIKE, DECIDING WHETHER OR NOT TO USE LYRICS IN A SONG AS OPPOSED TO JUST A SCORE. She said she didn't wanna use a voice over a montage in the middle of the episode because they've basically trained us by using singing in a song at the END of most episodes. So she was afraid that if she used singing there, that we'd think it was over or something. But she did it anyway and chose to broke format and I think it worked and ILHER.
- It is so awesome hearing what their favorite parts are, and hearing them smile about their own work.
Those of you who are being spoiler-free, come back to this after you've seen it!
AND I TTLY NEED TO THANK TIFF FOR STAYING ON THE PHONE WITH ME THE WHOLE TIME I WAS AT WALMART BECAUSE WALMART FREAKS ME OUT AND I DIDN'T WANT TO BE THERE BY MYSELF LOL. Seriously. I am fucking scared of Walmart. BUT I WENT ANYWAY. That's fucking devotion right there. LOL I had to wait in line. There were like 15 people there. I don't think they were there for House though lol. Some video game or sth. BUT OMG YAY I MADE THEM GO THROUGH THEIR BOXES AND FIND HOUSE. And there was a sticker on the side and it said "Don't sell before 8/21" and I was like sdkfhajksdfa IT IS 8/21.
SO OMG YAY. Now I am going to sit in bed with pillows and blankets and POPSICLES and a notebook and start my S3 rewatch, complete with note-taking. I AM SO FUCKING EXCITED. YOU DON'T EVEN FUCKING KNOW.
