To say I've had a slight obsession with this show, is an understatement of massive proportions. However I need to discuss the ins and outs of this show and what makes it work so well for me.What makes this medical show any different from any other is the relationship between House, Cuddy and Wilson. Their banter, schemes, angst and general character flaws bouncing off one another make any ordinary episode entertaining and a joy to watch. This has improved throughout the seasons despite awful plot lines focusing on silly out-of-place authority figures (Volger & Tritter) or the over-analysis of House's actions and schemes. Yes, House is a jerk. Everyone knows... move on. As great or crappy as the cottages/ducklings/minions are (depending on your personal preference between old and new team) they still don't hold the interest level that the older three do. While Wilson used to play more of a role as House's conscience the show wisely have given him a bit more of a sense of humor. The moments, especially towards the end of season 3 were classic. One of my favourites is when Wilson kidnapped House's guitar. Awesome.
Cuddy adds to show not only as a love interest or easily played authority figure but as a genuine friend for both House and Wilson. Though I confess I am a "Huddy" fan (yay for last episode), the real juicy moments are all the UST moments, flirty retorts and odd show of affection. I think if they were to get official it wouldn't quite work. As long as they both 'secretly' care about it each oth it'll be fine. But I will be around to find out....
Stay tuned...
