It's even better with the deepfried audio

Absolute cinema.

I was looking for this. Sums up every episode

Mouse bites cure all

I love how it goes more over the top than House itself, but yet feels like most episodes

Well, his is typically a one-case department. They talk about cutting his department or funding regularly because it is expensive. In the end, they always conclude he does more good than harm and let him keep abusing people to save a life here or there. I'm not saying anything of this is logical, ethical, or consistent with any reality I want to live in, I'm just saying they address a lot of this across the seasons.

i bet medical care is like that if you're rich

Mood I was in the ER this weekend for a broken collarbone and saw one doctor and two nurses and Tylenol for the pain. I had to make my own follow up appt with an orthopedic doctor in network and I couldn't request my medical records to be forwarded to new office. Fuck healthcare cause 5 days after the break I finally got an opinion from a qualified doctor: NO SURGERY. Fml

I think the in universe explanation was that it was a teaching hospital. But I’m pretty sure even those charge patients something in the US.

been awhile since i watched it, but didnt they state it was some hospital in a really rich neighborhood?

He is a genius, eccentric who solves mysteries using his intellect and deduction

If you've dealt with real doctors, you know that is high fantasy.

House/Homes/Holmes

deduction

it's abduction he uses, not deduction.

He doesn't start with a set of potential conclusions and knock them down one by one as he gathers evidence - no, he instead jumps from one extreme thread of intrigue to another, never quite abandoning an idea even if the evidence points otherwise. The universe then apparently conspires to prove him right on credence alone

Which is funny because Arthur Conan Doyle based Holmes on a real life doctor who used deductions. It comes full circle!

And Doyle got the inspiration for Holmes from watching doctors diagnose patients

He also lives at the same address: 221B Baker Street.

Plus, there's a bunch more.

Also butt hole worms are one of the most common and enduring medical conditions in human history.

And random suffering inflicted upon the patient

Similar to the cocaine sniffing, freelance police character House is based on

Hugh Laurie is an amazing actor. I watch the show as more of a character story than a medical show. Watching House's descent is just so intriguing to me

Invented? Lol,

Dude is a super genius finding clues where others can't whose name starts with an H with a close friend and companion whose name starts W.

Should they have just kept Holmes and Watson instead of House and Wilson to make it clear that it is Sherlock Holmes M.D.?
