I would like House more if every episode didn't follow the same formula:
Something weird happens to a person
Doctor's are sure they have diagnosed it correctly while House treats everyone like crap
Some kind of conflict in the hospital is going on, mostly people hating on House
Doctors were wrong, and something even weirder happens
House makes a personal connection with the patient which allows him to figure out what is wrong
House is able to at least temporarily overcome the problem at the hospital
Patient is saved
(Insert moral lesson for the day here)
See, I could be a writer for House!
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S.
