House is dead; long live House!*

Well, it's been eight years now, and in the time that this show has been on the air, a.) the word 'bromance' has somehow become a Thing, something I believe House/Wilson is at least partially to blame for, and b.) said word 'bromance' has been used, by House, to describe his relationship with Wilson. I feel like I could tease this into something profound about homoeroticism and the pop culture ouroboros, but I think I'm just going to boggle instead.

I drifted away from House a couple of times while it was on the air and caught up later, most recently when I heard that it was going to be ending, so I would be prepared for the big send-off. Although I don't know that I would recommend the last season as objectively good or even watchable television, I did personally find a number of things to squee over:

So then there was a final episode. And ( spoilers, briefly. )

*Not actually a spoiler as such.

I have just realized that I am Wilson and Stan is House.

No, really. I'm a little disturbed at how accurate this is.

To make this post a little less pointless, here's a picture of one of his cats.

Today is Tuesday and so we are watching House, American Idol be damned! Yay!

In other news, I don't know if anyone on my flist besides underlucius is watching Life On Mars, but I'm really enjoying it, and it didn't seem to have an LJ community, so I created one: lifein1973.

The premise of the show is that Sam Tyler, a detective working on a tough murder case in 2006, gets hit by a car and wakes up in 1973. He's not sure if he's dreaming, insane, or he's really traveled in time, but he's got a whole lot of culture shock to deal with. He has a fabulous, classic love/hate relationship with his new superior, DCI Glen Hunt, who's Sam's complete opposite in every way. Together, they fight crime!

If anyone who's not watching would like to be, I'm sure something could be arranged, ifyaknowwhatImean. ;)

All my shows are over now. I miss them already.

The last few weeks have been especially nice since I've been home. My whole family watches House, although only my mom and I know what's going on on Lost and Alias.
