Okay so we disagreed a little on this episode. I love love loved the lobe scene and the end where Cuddy said she didn't want him to change (Lisa Edelstein ♥ ♥ ♥), but some of the other parts felt off for a reason I can't quite put my finger on. I know they both deserved sappy, but...some of the sappiest sappy seemed out of character? I don't know. I'm obviously really happy the show is finally going here and I'm really excited to see them back to bantering at the hospital.
I might rewatch the episode later to see if I like it better on a second pass.
Oh hey, disagreeing is totally fine, I certainly don't expect ANYONE to CAPSLOCK about it quite as intensively as I've just done, ha ha. I actually have to admit that I don't think I could've viewed this episode in a very unbiased way - I've basically been hankering after some variation of every scene in this episode for the last 6 years so everything pretty much felt like manna from heaven for me. The 'lobe' and 'incredible man' scenes are my FAVOURITES - they felt especially true to the entire show, I think, and were so beautifully acted by both Hugh and Lisa.
I'm TOTALLY psyched for the next few episodes though - because it looks like a bit of angst is sneaking in (based on the promo anyway) and I'm all sweetness and light when it comes to my ships (obviously *weeps*) but I like a good helping of angst too. XD
I'll be rewatching the episode until the end of time, so... you know, feel free to join me when you have time... ;)
Haha, yes, I've only been waiting since July so even though I love them I'm not as invested. XD But I'm really excited for the next episodes. Them being silly at work looks hilarious!
HA HA HA OMG HAI THERE. I LOBE YOU TOO. I WANT TO GLOMP ON EVERYONE I KNOW AND TELL THEM I LOBE THEM EXCEPT I DON'T THINK MANY PEOPLE WOULD GET WHERE I'M COMING FROM.
I HONESTLY HAVE BEEN REWATCHING IT ALL NIGHT. I NEED TO MOVE ON TO CASTLE, OMG.
中秋節快樂 to you too!! I completely forgot about it - clearly my priorities were all focused in one direction today. XD XD
OMH HAI I'M GLAD YOU AGREE AND THOUGHT THERE WAS COHERENCE AT ALL BECAUSE HONESTLY I WAS ALL ABOUT THE FLAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIL. SERIOUSLY - WASN'T THAT PREMIERE EPISODE SOMETHING??? I THOUGHT I'D GET TO BED AT A REASONABLE HOUR SINCE I MANAGED TO WATCH IT BY 9PM LAST NIGHT BUT NOW IT'S ALMOST 3AM AND I'M JUST STILL FLAILING AND REWATCHING AND LMAO YOU ARE REBLOGGING ME ON TUMBLR AND ADKLSFHLFS THIS EPISODE. I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE WATCHING THIS SHOW AT THE SAME TIME AS I AM NOW!!!! XD
AHAHAHA MAYBE BECAUSE I'VE BEEN TRAINING FOR THIS EVENT FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS OF MY LIFE. MY HEART MIGHT GIVE OUT FROM THE AMAZING AT THE RATE THE SHOW IS GOING BUT OMG I WANT TO BE THERE FOR EVERY SECOND OF IT. XD
AND I'M GLAD YOU'RE OBSESSED. HAI, I TOTES APPROVE. WHO'S THE ONE STILL AWAKE AT 3AM NOW??? WHEN I HAVE TO BE AT WORK IN SIX HOURS? LOLOLOL WE ARE BOTH CLEARLY QUALITY HUMAN BEINGS.
HAI OMG I HAVE MISSED FLAILING WITH YOU!!! I'M SORRY THAT I KEEP DISAPPEARING, AND OMG WHEN MY SANITY RETURNS TO ME AFTER WATCHING THIS EPISODE AND GENERALLY BEING IN A STATE OF HYPERVENTILATING FLAIL, I WILL TRY TO BE GOOD AND GO FLIST AND CAPSLOCK IN YOUR POST TOO. XD XD XD THE MOAR FLAIL THE BETTER, Y/Y??
I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE PILLS EITHER. I'M JUST ASSUMING THAT CUDDY WENT AND DUMPED THEM IN HER HANDBAG OR SOMETHING WHEN HOUSE WAS PREPARING THEIR SPECIAL BATH. (OMG YOU KNOW WE GET TO SAY THINGS LIKE THEIR SPECIAL BATH NOW, BECAUSE THEY ARE TOTALLY A 'THEY' SLDFKHSDLFHSLDFHLSDFHSL
( ... )
YAY! I MISSED FLAILING WITH YOU TOO. MIND-TWIN FTW! AND I KNOW RL HAS A HABIT OF GETTING IN THE WAY AND RUINING EVERYTHING, BUT THAT'S OKAY. BECAUSE YOU'RE HERE AND FLAILING ABOUT THE MOST EPIC AND PERFECT PREMIERE THAT'S EVER HAPPENED IN THE HISTORY OF TELEVISION (AND HOUSE).
OOOH. PILLS IN THE PURSE. YEAH, THAT'D MAKE SENSE. I KNOW IN ONE PREVIEW, THERE WERE SHOTS OF THE TWO EMPTY PILL BOTTLES, BUT THEN WE NEVER SAW THEM AGAIN. I WONDER IF HOUSE EVEN KNEW SHE PICKED THEM UP. AND I JUST REALIZED THEY NEVER ADDRESSED THE ISSUE OF CUDDY'S PLACE. SHE SAID SHE HAD A NEW PLACE WITH LUCAS... SO IS SHE STAYING THERE? DID SHE KICK LUCAS OUT? A;LSKDJFA;LDSKFJ I HOPE THAT'S ADDRESSED AT ONE POINT LOL.
DUDE, I'M STILL HAVING TROUBLE PROCESSING THAT THEY ARE THEY. AND THEY CAN LEGIT HOLD HANDS AND KISS AND HUG AND GROPE WHENEVER THEY WANT. AND HOUSE IS ALL ROMANTIC IN HIS OWN SPECIAL WAY. ALKSDJF;ALKDSJF THIS IS REAL. THIS IS HAPPENING. I HAD THREE MONTHS FOR THIS TO SINK IN, BUT IT HASN'T YET. A;SLKDJFAS;LDFJOIELAS DYING
( ... )
SORRY IT TOOK A WHILE TO COME BACK FOR THE FLAIL. RL DEFINITELY GETS IN THE WAY IN A HORRIBLE WAY, DOESN'T IT? BUT I'VE DECIDED THAT MY RL WILL NOW CONSTITUTE ENTIRELY OF HOUSE. THE REST OF IT IS JUST A DISTRACTION. WHO'S WITH ME?!?! ;)
ACTUALLY THE THING I NOTICED NOW THAT I'VE WATCHED THE PREMIERE AGAIN (AND AGAIN) IS THAT CUDDY DOESN'T HAVE A PURSE WITH HER - SHE DIDN'T LEAVE WITH ONE. GODDAMMIT, CUDDY, WHERE DO YOU PUT YOUR CAR KEYS? AND THE PILL BOTTLES? GRRR ARGH. I HOPE CUDDY'S NEW HOUSE BECOMES THEIR LOVE NEST, BTW. THEY CAN CHRISTEN EVERY ROOM BY HAVING SEX IN IT. AT LEAST TWICE
( ... )
DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH FUN I JUST HAD READING ALL OF THIS? TOO MUCH FUN, ACTUALLY. :)
NO BUT SERIOUSLY. THE ENDING COUCH SCENE. EVERYTHING YOU SAID ABOUT IT. IT REALLY IS ONE OF *THE* MOST PERFECT SCENES I'VE EVER SEEN ON TELEVISION BEFORE. AND I CRY EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT TOO.
I ACTUALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO ADD. YOU COVERED EVERYTHING, LOL. I STILL CAN'T COMPREHEND THIS THOUGH.
AHAHAHA OMG YOU READ ALL THE CAPSLOCK. YOU ARE MY FAVOURITE FOR DOING THAT, I REALLY WAS JUST FLAILING FOR MYSELF. BECAUSE I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S HAPPENING!!!!!!
THE ENDING COUCH SCENE - AS YOU SAID - ONE OF THE BEST THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN ON ANY TELEVISION SHOW, EVER. BAR NONE. I HONESTLY THINK IT WAS SO DEEP AND PROFOUND AND JUST BEAUTIFULLY ACTED BY HUGH AND LISA. NGL, I MIGHT BE HYPERVENTILATING A TINY BIT JUST THINKING ABOUT IT.
BTW, haaaai!! Just wanted to say a proper hi - easier to do so here than on Tumblr, much as I spend most of my time over there these days. XD So glad to be friends here now too! :) I definitely remember seeing you around house_cuddy when I used to be more active. I'M GONNA TRY TO GET BACK INTO IT, if work allows. So... yeah, hi!! *waves*
