BANZAI!
Sam's Three Things About House, Episode 4.16: A Blonde Is A Terrible Thing To Waste
1. NEEDLE IN TEH BRAIN OH NOOOOOOOOOES ack ew ick. Also, that moment when House is sitting in the head-holding frame and cuts his eyes to Wilson right at the chord change? That was a complete Stephen King moment.
2. Oh, god. I'm sorry, I know it's callous and cruel, but these long drawn-out death scenes, they make me eyeroll. I didn't like Amber to start with, not from her very first appearance, but that hardly matters; I liked Tosh and Owen (well, more or less) and I eyerolled at their grand death scenes too. I realise this is not an inherent flaw in television; most people cry like babies, but the Precious Last Moments just annoy me. Points for realistic snotting noises, though.
3. Okay, seriously, how many near-death visions does House get to have? Hasn't he had like, four already? Not counting hallucinations and flashbacks, but pure head-on talkin'-with-dead-people visions. He's had a lot anyhow. Potentially because they're the only time he is ever actually emotionally honest about anything, true.
3a. That moment where Plastic Surgeon gives his wife a hug is way awkward. It's like he's trying to bodyslam her or something. I have to admit I may have LOLed.
And now to bed, because last night I did not sleep well due to dreams of sex and homicide, and not the good kind of either.
