I'm putting money on House. It's terrible. It makes me feel violent. More violent than usual. The doctor is all, "I am smugger than Grissom" and I'm all, "come here so i can beat you with your cane, dickhead."
Saffron: You won't tell anyone about me breaking down? Mal: I won't. Saffron: Then I won't tell anyone how easily I got your gun out of your holster. Mal: I'll take that as a kindness.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Unless they've really retooled Point Pleasant, the pilot for House knocks it way out of the park.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
But "House" is at Tuesday 9 pm, opposite the ratings juggernaut, "The Amazing Race". (And "Veronica Mars", which I adore with unreasonable passion. Also, "Scrubs".)
I suspect "Point Pleasant" will tank in that time slot (opposite "CSI") unless it's really, really good. But do you want to place Tim's show in that death slot? I don't know.
I skipped and skimmed like a madwoman. Do we have a name for Tim's show yet?

The Inside.

"The Inside"? Wow, that tells me... not much. There's some kind of soopersekrit spies/covert ops type of dealio going on in the show, right? Or maybe that was pre-retooling.

If I only had a brain...
It's all about colonoscopies.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I haven't seen either one (House or PP), but Point Pleasant at least sounds interesting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's about a psychic who can tell the manner of someone's death by looking at their colonoscopy results....
