House M.D.


Someone I don't know any more recommended I watch this show…that was the beginning of a couple of hours of my life spent on this 'Drama series' (in sitcom language)..

It was not the medical mysteries as much it was about the characters, their interactions with each other, their failing at many cross roads life presents that kept me 'hooked' to the series. The idea that the
protagonist is a man who's sense of right overrules every other law ever written. His attempts to be the face of truth – not misguided sense of righteousness we are taught – just the plain old, ugly and painful truth is indeed well portrayed..

Living the famous words from Fight Club "self-destruction is the answer" is hard and has its "Side-effects", but, who cares; he revels in stirrup he has created. He sits back and watches as emotions fly and beliefs are broken. The god complex is more than what people make it out to be. It's takes a lifetime to get there but when you do its better than any drug ever made alive, and it's impossible to step down and be mortal. Season 1- Season 7 is a clear example ….

I have to say, I love camera work done over the last few seasons especially season 7. They have been able to create 'the mood' using light, camera angle and some well suited background music.
