House Back on Top

On this weeks episode of House, House tried to make the doctors that quit under Foreman to come back. This episode was good because the story about the Dibala case finally had consequences. In the previous episode Chase finally told Cameron that he intentionally killed Dibala. Cameron thought that this was totally out of character for Chase and decided that they needed change. At the beginning of the episode Cameron and Chase came into the Diagnostic workroom to tell House, Foreman, and Cuddy that they are quiting the team and are leaving the hospital. This was also the episode that House got his medical license back and officially was made head of the diagnostic department.

House decides that he needs some change as too. He calls/faxes Taub and Thirteen many times and every time they ignore him. He also tried to convince Chase and Cameron to stay and not quit the team because he wanted to choose from the best who should stay on the team. He knew that there were four spots on his team and he wanted to be able to choose from five doctors so that he felt in control of the situation. After enough pestering Taub and Thirteen realized that where their lives were are not as good as when they were working for House. They both went in to tell House that they will work for him again and that they will rejoin the team. Chase also told House that he is going to stay on the team because he thinks that he can do the most good and get redemption if he stays at the hospital. Cameron came into House's office shortly after Thirteen to tell him that even though Chase is not, she is still quiting. Cameron decided that she was going to quit because she did not want to be corrupted like Chase, she thought that Chase had spent to much time with House and now he has turned into him. She told House that Chase has become the type of person who will do whatever they think is right even if they know it is the wrong thing to do, just like House. House did not get the chance to pick members of his team because Cameron decided to quit, so not his team is Chase, Foreman, Taub, and Thirteen.

I thought that this episode was good because House was finally back in charge. When Foreman was running the department House was still telling him what to do. I thought that it was good that Chase finally had to suffer consequences for killing President Dibala. It was good that Taub and Thirteen returned to the hospital because they were doctors who still knew right from wrong because House has not corrupted them yet. I think that nearend Cameron was right when she said the House was going to corrupt Thirteen and Taub just like he did to Foreman and Chase. I though that this episode of House would get a rating of 3 out of 5.

Dead People Should Stay Dead

This was the strangest episode of House this season. The case that they had to handle was insane. First a man admitted himself into the hospital claiming that he was going to die when he turns 40. He thought this because he father died on his 40th birthday and his grandfather died on his 40th birthday and he figured that it was genetic. Of course nobody in the hospital believed him, except for Cameron who took the case to the team. The team was all ready to treat him, but there was nothing to treat because he was a healthy man with no illness at all. House told the team that they had to let him go because he is not sick. Four hours after they released him their patient died. He was declared dead on the scene by the paramedics and was brought back to the hospital. When House and Foreman started to perform an autopsy they noticed that the patient was bleeding, dead bodies don't bleed. Their patient stared screaming and almost scared Foreman and house to death. They spent the remainder of the episode trying to solve the case because now one of the symptoms was resurrection. They eventually found out that he had a blood clot in the back of his neck that was going to force his brain to shut down the heart that will eventually kill him, just like his father and grandfather. They were able to cut it out and save his life. Another interesting point in the episode was how much of a jerk House is.

House is not a good friend. He is a mean person. He has been trying for the past six episodes to make Wilson so uncomfortable that he converts is study into an extra bedroom. Once House got into his new bedroom he started hearing voices, this concerned him because he thought that he was going insane again. He was afraid that he would have to go back to the hospital if the voices did not stop. When he went to tell Wilson about the voices during the night he quietly went into Wilson's bedroom and heard him whispering to his dead girlfriend, Amber. The next morning he told Wilson that he was going to readmit himself into the hospital because he wanted Wilson to admit that he was talking to himself. When Wilson did not admit anything House told Wilson that he knows what he is talking about and Wilson replies that House is a jerk because he feels the need to make fun of him because he talks to his dead girlfriend. Wilson told House after that than it makes him feel better and that he misses her. House should have felt bad about this because the reason that Amber died was because House made her ride the bus home with him and the bus got into a car crash that resulted in her dying a few hours later. By the end of the episode House was trying to figure out if talking to dead loved ones really made you feel better and started to talk to his dead father. He found out that talking to his father made him feel better.

This episode of House was insane because their patient came back to life. I thought that it was ridiculous that they had a dead person come back to life because it is impossible. They never really said how it happened they just seemed to get over it right away. The episode was not that good because their case became stupid as soon as the guy came back to life, it was good when he came in saying that he was going to die when he turn forty in a few days. The other main part of the episode was stupid too. House should not make fun of Wilson if talking to himself makes him fell better. Overall I think that this episode of House was a 2 out of 5.

Tying Up Loose Ends

On Monday night House was on. The name of this episode was "Instant Karma". This episode was based around everyone trying to get their lives back to the way they were before House went to the hospital, before Foreman was department head, before Thirteen worked at the hospital and before Chase killed President Dibala. A billionaire came into the hospital and demanded that Dr. Gregory House treat his dying son. There were many problems with this case because dozens of doctors had already looked at the kid and they could find nothing wrong wit him except that he is dying. Foreman was asked by the board of the hospital to give a presentation on the Dibala case. Chase was afraid of Foreman would do at the presentation. Cameron was wondering what was wrong with Chase. House was trying to get Thirteen to come back to work at the hospital. Thirteen was trying to get away from her life at the hospital.

This episode started with the dying kid coming in with his father demanding that Dr. Gregory House treat his son. The only problem that Dr. Cuddy had with his request was the House has not received his medical license back yet after being admitted in a psychiatric hospital. So Cuddy decided to keep Foreman in charge of the department but House was to make all of the decisions and important choices. Foreman did not like this idea because if House messed up and the kid died than Foreman would have to take all the blame for it. Cuddy also told Foreman that he was to prepare a presentation of the board on the Dibala case. Chase tried to help Foreman make up a reasonable story to tell at the presentation because he did not want Foreman to tell everyone that he had killed Dibala. Throughout the entire episode Chase was giving Foreman new ideas and every time Foreman threw them back at him. Meanwhile House went and found Thirteen planning a trip to Thailand and offered Thirteen her old job, when she declined he hacked into her e-mail and cancelled her trip. Thirteen went to Cuddy, House and to Wilson trying to figure out what happened and none of them said anything. Wilson finally admitted to it and then went to House wanting the real story, House's reasoning was that she was an asset to the team, he chose her for a reason and he thought that Foreman was making a foolish and selfish mistake. The father of the dying kid thought that his son would get better if he gave all of his money away because of karma. After he gave his money away they decided that the son has a terminal illness and has only a few hours to live. After looking at some test results later in the day they realized that he did not have this disease and they started to treat him for a different illness and he was cured. Near the end of the episode Chase found an envelope on the table addressed to him and it was test results from a previous doctor that Dibala had seen and it shown that he had high cholesterol and that it could have caused what killed him. When Chase shown this to Foreman they both realized that sine neither of them had ordered it someone else in the hospital knows that Chase secretly killed a patient and Foreman did not turn him in.

I liked this episode because it tried to tie up all of the loose ends from the previous episodes in the rest of the season. I thought that House was right in thinking that the current power structure in the department is awesome because it would be great to be in charge of something but someone else take all of the responsibilities of being in charge. I think that House had different reasons for not wanting Thirteen to go away and that he just does not want of tell anybody. I still think that Chase should have to answer for what he did to Dibala and that he should not get away with murder. Since he has no consequences it shows that if you are a doctor you can get away with murder if you are just careful in what lies you tell. I thought that it was good the neither Foreman or Chase figured out who ordered the package with the test results because it makes them both worry about who in the hospital can end their careers whenever they want to. I liked the title of this episode because it related to the billionaire giving all of his money away so that something good would happen to his son and after a few hours his son had made a full recovery after being sick for months. I thought that this episode was very good and would be rated 3.5 out of 5.

We Can Not Choose Who We Save

Last night House was on and it was definitely the best episode of the season. After Foreman fired Thirteen and the end of the last episode Dr. Taub quit at the beginning of this episode because he did not want to work alone with Foreman. To make sure that the department was not closed Foreman quickly tried to find replacements. He decided on Dr. Chase and Cameron because he knew that he could work with them and they were qualified. Chase and Cameron were the original team that worked for House when the show first started. When Chase and Cameron agreed they were told by Cuddy who the patient was. Their new patient was President Dibbla who was an oppressive dictator who was going to go home and commit acts of genocide in his country. House returned to the hospital looking for his job, even though he does not have a medical license. Cuddy told him that since Dibbla is such an important patient House will be allowed to sit in on the meetings, but Foreman is still in charge and he can not do any procedures or come in contact with patients.

I thought that this episode was very good because it showed the thoughts of all of the doctors. The main story in this episode was the inner conflict in Chase treating this patient. He and Cameron thought that the world would be a better place if Dibbla died in the hospital. Chase decided to take matter into his own hands and fake test results for Dibbla by going to the morgue and finding someone with a certain disease, the treatment for this disease would in combination with the disease that Dibbla already had would kill him. Chase faked the results and gave the to Foreman knowing that Foreman would have no choice but to treat him immediately. Chase was the only one who knew what was really wrong with Dibbla. When they gave him the treatment Dibbla started to bleed into his lungs and died. After they brought Dibbla down to the morgue Foreman discovered that Chase had been down there earlier in the day and thought that Chase and Cameron faked the results. Chase informed Foreman that Cameron had nothing to do with it. Chase tried to guilt Foreman into not reporting him to the police by telling him that if it comes out the Dibbla was killed than he will become a martyr and the genocide will start. Foreman believed Chase and told him that he has to make sure that all the loose ends are tied up because he will not go down as Chase's accomplice.

I liked this episode because it gave further detail into how the doctors treat patients who they do not want to live. Foreman thought that no matter who the patient is it is their duty as doctors to help them get better. Cameron thought similar to Foreman thinking that she did not want Dibbla to die, but if he did she would not miss him. Chase on the other hand thought that Dibbla was to dangerous to be kept alive and decided that he had to die. This episode was more based on Foreman, Chase, and Cameron instead of House and his problems. I thought that it was good that all of the other characters were in the episode including Thirteen, Wilson, Cuddy and House. I thought that this was the best episode only because it showed how much power doctors really have in the world, they have the power to kill. I thought Foreman was right in his thinking that we can not choose who we save. i would give this episode of House a 4.5 out of 5.

House: Out of the Hospital

Monday night the second episode of House was on, the title of this episode was "Epic Fail". It was much better than the season premiere. It had a better story than the premiere and the rest of the characters were in the episode not just House. Since House was released from the hospital he returned to his hospital to return to his post as head of the Department of Diagnostic Medicine. House has a team of doctors that he hand picked to work for him as a diagnostic team. When a patient with mysterious symptoms comes in they are referred to House and his team, so that they can figure out what is wrong with him. There are three people on his team the first and most experienced member is Dr.Foreman, the second member of his team is Dr.Hadley she tells everyone to call her "Thirteen" because she is dying and thought that it would make her stand out during the application process, and the final member of his team is a former plastic surgeon named Dr. Taub. The director of the hospital is Dr. Cuddy and House's best friend is Dr. Wilson.

After House gets out of the hospital he returns to his job at the hospital only so that he can tell Cuddy that he needs to make changes to his life and the first change is that he is quitting. once House quits and leaves the room Foreman asks Cuddy if he can have House's job. With Foreman as the new head of the department the other two doctors on his team think that they can act differently now that House is gone. Their patient for this episode was a video game developer and he was posting his symptoms online so that he could get other doctors opinion on his condition because he thought that he would be getting treated by House. Foreman started to treat the other two doctors badly because they where acting different and that this case was his only shot at keeping the department running. House on the other hand is at home trying to find a new hobby after he went to cooking classes and got sick of doing that all the time. House is now living with Wilson so that Wilson can make sure that House is not taking anymore pain killers. After Thirteen comes to Houses apartment to complain about how Foreman is treating them she tells him that the patient is posting his symptoms online. House was trying for the entire episode to find away to make the pain in his leg go away without taking pain killers and he could not find one that lasted for a long enough time. At the end of the episode after Foreman figures out the problem with his patient he found out that Thirteen went and checked the return posts from doctors and stopped the treatment. Foreman was upset that she stopped treatment before he could tell her to. The only way House could find a way to get rid of his pain was to solve old cases. House was the one who posted the solution on the patients blog. Foreman thought that it was not Thirteen's place to stop treatment before he could tell her to, so he fired her at the end of the episode. I liked this episode much better than the premiere because there was the rest of the characters , more of a story and there was the puzzle of the doctors trying to figure out what is wrong with the patient. I liked the fact that for once Foreman, Thirteen, and Taub had to figure out a case without the assistance of House. I would give this episode of House a 4 out of 5

Season Premieres: House/Heroes

Monday night was the season premiere of the sixth season of House and the fourth season of Heroes. House was alright for the premiere, it was a two hour episode about House trying to get out of the psychiatric hospital that he was admitted to at the end of season five. I thought that the episode was kind of dumb. First House does not seem like the kind of guy that would admit himself into a psychiatric hospital, he would try to diagnose himself until he was right or until he died. Once House was in the hospital he was choosing not to take his medication because he thought that he did not need it. If he thought that he did not need medication than why would he admit himself into a hospital? Throughout the entire episode it was obvious that House did not want to be in the hospital, but since he checked himself in he should be able to leave whenever he wants to, but the hospital will not let him. So eventually House gives up on his idea that he does not need help and he starts to take the medication and he gets better. I thought that it was strange that the hospital would let him leave so suddenly because he has been better for a little while. In the end House got want he wanted and was allowed to leave and go home. I thought the the season premiere of the sixth season of House was overall not so good and would have a rating of 2 out of 5.

After House was the premiere of the fourth season of Heroes. Heroes is a good show, even though it is almost exactly the same as X-Men. This episode of Heroes was very good. Most of the Heroes from previous seasons have found ways to use their powers for the greater good such as being a paramedic, running a hero help line or being a detective; but some of them are using their powers to hurt people like by drowning them, or torturing people from within their own mind. Since almost all of the Heroes on the show use their powers to hurt or to help people there are some that do not use their powers at all. There were new problems for all of the Heroes as there always are and they are all trying to stay away from each other so that they are not put back into the fighting between the Heroes and the villains. There is really only one consistent villain in this show, Sylar. At the end of the last season Sylar was made to believe that he was a different person and was made to look like this other person. Now Sylar, who thinks he is Nathan Petrelli, is starting to get his powers back and starting to think that he is someone else. While Matt Parkman in Los Angeles is starting to see Sylar because Matt was the one who went into Sylar's head and made him think he was Nathan. Most of the Heroes are trying to live normal lives and trying to keep people from knowing about their past and their powers such as Claire, Noah, Mohinder and Matt. Some are trying to make people think that they are Heroes like Hiro and Ando in Japan who started to run a Hero helpline for people in need. Overall I think that the fourth season premiere of Heroes was great and would get a rating of 4 out of 5
