About Nurse Jackie and House MD
Now that I live with my mother, for the better or worser, I watch tv more often, though not enough to give up my mind (?) Internet owns my apple ass. Most likely when we are at dinner. I don't like a lot tv because of how they bomb people with shallow publicity, even when I'm not blind and I see when they put it in the sites that I visit too. Somehow, they are more easy to avoid, overhere and the ones that I catch are not so offesive against my gender like in tv.
A year ago I read about a show that started: Nurse Jackie and then I watched the commercial in Universal. A lot of people compare it with House. In the other hand, certain ones believe that is almost plagiarism or a non very inteligent way of use HMD to sell another show, saying almost the same.
First: I must say that I watched a few seasons of House. In the beggining because Dixie loves Thirdteen and Ney talked fine of her too, with other fandom acquaintances that found it interesting. Me too? I revindicate it since the main character is based in Sherlock Holmes and the whole structure of the show makes a resemblance with the novels of Conan Doyle in their resolutions. That, sazonated with day live of a disenchanted adult, make it...Able.Of.Being.Watched. But if it wasn't thanks to Cameron, my favorite character, I would have never past of the first ten episodes. House is not my type, though I laugh sometimes with his path of script. It's cynic, but also angsty and I can understand why a lot of people loves him/the show itself.
And what with Nurse Jackie? I didn't feel like downloading an entire episode of this one. Not because I think it's poseur (well, House bothered me because it's pure over the top. Almost never dies a patient and that put.Me.On.Nerves. Tv with doctors: not my tea cup but if you put me against the wall, I may tell you how much I liked a few years ago "Er" with the lesbian doc and Third Watch, full of moral horizonts crossed. Also, Scrubs got a black humor that I loved and now I'm watching Monster, that can be labeled in this category because of Herr Shoutacon, if you are enough permisive to put an anime of the best ones here) or I have misogenian thinking...Not like that at all. Really.
When I watched the first commercial, I thought almost immediatly: I need to see this, add it to my fandoms. It's the female version of House, though I HATED the fact that she was a nurse and not a doctor. It sexism. I want to see a show when there is a male nurse and a female doctor in extreme feminist. But a few months ago, I watched the new announcements...where Jackie is on drugs. Yeah, House is also a drug addict of the prescriptive ones, but I NEVER SAW a single commercial of his show where he is using drugs as a way of deal with his problems. Something that happens pretty often in the saga, but in the commercials of House, he is seen talking with cynicism to his subordinates or playing an angsty role with a sardonic line in the lips. Why do they put the accentuation in Jackie's situation with drugs if they are not doing the same with House? Also, the commercials are most likely oriented to the fact that she have a lot of lovers. With House, the theme is more sentimental. Oh, I'm screwed, do you want me around? Not just: Hey, look how screwed I am, come here and do me even mooore bad things. I know you want...
I hate to let my blog just like these days, because it's a relieve to put my opinions somewhere and let records. So I can come back and read about how I was a certain time ago. Sometimes, I don't recognize myself. Others, I'm proud of what I did since that days or ashamed because nothing has changed a lot or enough. Real life? I adopted a new kitty, exams are starting after the papers and one of the girls that I was sort of dating...sort of dumped me?If it's possible to be dumped in that circumstances. Let's say that we were in 0.1 (or two, if we take in consideration that we used to talk a bit) and now we are at total zero.
