Reply to the Episode "Wilson" discussion at house_wilson, which ran way over the LJ reply character-limit. Possible spoilers ahead.

Please be aware that I am not judging you, or anyone else that may read this for that matter (I am also well aware this next statement of mine may seem contradictory to that, but it is meant to illustrate a different point rather than contempt), but I have a massive disdain for people who cannot control their own behaviour with their mind. I think that's why I scoff at people who can't control either their (depending on what mood I'm and and what the circumstances are surrounding the feelings) lust/love - my brain wants to believe that one can overcome hormone-based lust based on willpower. It is also why I scoff (not intentionally - I am trying to rectify this horrid behaviour) at those who gravitate towards one another on pure lust and no apparent logic, the latter of which I have become convinced does not exist at all with House/Cuddy (I refuse to even mention the contraction "Huddy" - sounds awful).
I see why the writers gave Cuddy the storyline of wanting a child of her own, but being unable to conceive because of her age, as it is a real and serious and growing problem for many women around the world whom originally passed on the opportunity of family to further careers (something which I actually admired Cuddy for during the first couple of seasons). Wanting a child of her own does not make her any less of a "strong" woman. However, I am personally convinced that we are have long since past that, and are now somehow into the idea that the traditional nuclear family is the only way for Cuddy to be happy, and the only way for House to be happy/fufilled while we're at it. Having a father in the family does not make a family functional, but Cuddy no longer seems satisfied with just a child; she wants the man she fancies (I refer to the UK term here, where "fancy" means "to have a crush on") as well, nevermind incompatible personalities and objectifying comments (which I am convinced she unconscously likes), and my respect for her has dwindled (along with her clothing) since mid-season 3 or so.
As for Tivo, I assume that is the American version of Sky+? We used to have Sky (not Sky+, the latter which allows you to record your favourite programmes), but they started to jack the price up by a good amount each year, and considering we had hundreds of channels which we did not watch, we ended up cancelling the package. Anyways, I have to watch House on the internet until the DVDs come out, so there's unfortunately no fast-forwarding. Even if there was, however, my morbid curiosity would eventually win out, and it would likely be a case of "Huddy" curiosity kill the Phoenix cat.
And I completely agree that the characters of House and Wilson have remarkable chemistry. <3 They should so get together, fly off to Canada and marry already.
