House, M.D. - Season Four

Season 4 is six episodes short of a full season, due to the writer's strike. But they really pack a punch in the 16 episodes! And the two part finale is just so incredible! Kudos to Amber, she really went out with style.

I have all four seasons, and season four is the best. I wasn't all that into it at first but as the season progresses it gets better and better. The finale is amazing. I totally agree with one of the reviewers, "Don't start watching this series unless you want to get addicted." The more you watch it, the more you are addicted.

As usual, House (Hugh Laurie and gang) keeps me on the edge of my seat and back in it with laughter. The price was much lower than any other place I found and I searched atleast 5 other stores and sites. Thanks Amazon!!

Okay, so we had a great show, with a conventionally unlikeable but definitely fascinating main character, surrounded by a likeable and often interesting support crew. As Series Three progressed, House became increasingly troubled and dare I say unsympathetic (am I the only one to think that arch-villain, Tritter, actually had a point?)

So the solution? Get rid of the sympathetic characters and in Series Four make House increasingly unsympathetic to the point of actual repellence. Series creator, David Shore, what are you thinking? Series Four is consequently the first series we have not bought.

We hang in there with Series Five but not much longer. The character of House has virtually become a parody of itself, with credibility sacrificed to cheap laughs. And in these truly benighted times do we really need a hero who gets results by being selfish, self-absorbed and totally amoral? The character is on record in one episode as saying he needs an epiphany. Bring it on!

House season 4 stays with the same trend of the past seasons, while going deeper into who greg house really is, god ^.^.
