House (show, characters, episodes, Emmy)

[Lucky Lady123]

What did you think of the 2 Hour premiere tonight?


There could be some interesting story lines if Andre Braugher was added to the show. JMO

I liked it. I was a little confused by his lady love. I thought she was a hallucination for awhile. Glad he's out of the cuckoo nest and the other characters will be included again.

Only watched the first hour then i turned to football but it was pretty good from what i saw.

I was mixed on the episode. Some things I found a bit contrived or difficult to believe but it won't change my loyalty to House. As always, HL was brilliant and gorgeous.

Oh lord I hope I dvr'd it. Can't read this thread anymore until I get home!!

Was not too impressed with the first hour, but thought the second hour was "good". . . . eager to see what (if any) change in charachter is apparent, when he returns to "real life". . . ..

I felt mixed about it too. Loved Andre Braugher and hope he'll be back in future episodes. Agreed with whichever of you said that some parts seemed contrived. I'm also a little fearful that they'll get preachy. There was something "not quite right" - maybe it's just that we didn't get to see his team mates or any hospital cases.

Side note - 13 looked fab at the Emmys!

I enjoyed both hours of the season opener. I have to admit that the second hour was really my cup of tea. I truly loved Alvie and the talent show was just wonderful. I actually had tears in my eyes a couple of times. Wasn't Andre great? I think he is going to recur as Greg's voice of reason from time to time. I sure hope so. What a way to start the season.

The writers still have it. That scene with the music box was exceptional. I almost always love the music on House but they really trumped themselves last night.

I really missed seeing the other characters, too, but the ones in the hospital were exceptional.

I agree with your comments. Sometimes it's nice to see the main character in a different setting. Andre is the voice of reason and, yet, he has some elements of Greg's character - that of a loner. It will be interesting to see if any of Andre's coaching will stick, and if Greg's interactions with his coworkers changes very much. It's the only hospital drama worth watching. I think this was a fantastic season opener.

I didn't miss the ducklings (House's staff) and honestly, they have gotten boring to me: 13 and Foreman, Cameron and Chase. Blech. I love Wilson though, but I wouldn't mind shaking things up a bit.
