Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
The only other medical shows I watch are ER, Grey's Anatomy and Scrubs, and they manage quite well without the last minute "Oh! That's what that was????"
It's not that House is a medical show. It's that it's a mystery show, and unless you're The Inside, it's probably going to be solved preeety close to the end of the airing hour (with enough time for "chase" and "arrest," if needed).
Happy Birthday Sophia! Have a great day!
Happy birthday, Sophia!
I watched NCIS and House last night. Next week, I may have to start taping one channel, because Kyle Secor will be on opposite House. I had thoughts at one point, but ragweed took them away.
Thanks for the birthday wishes!
Birthday Sophia Happy (have a)!
Aaaa, chaos. The entire office is talking about Hurricane Rita.
aaaaaaaaa.
Also, my arms really hurt.
Much hurricane-ma to Texasistas.
Also, my arms really hurt.
You ought to walk around moaning loudly. That might change the topic of conversation.

Clinton Gets a Good Ribbing
Forget about the William J. Clinton Presidential Library. A Chinese company plans a more down-to-earth tribute to Arkansas' favorite political son: the Clinton condom. The politically themed prophylactics will hit store shelves in southern China at a cost of $3.72 a dozen alongside a less-expensive sister line of Lewinsky rubbers, named after the president's most-favored intern, according to South African news site Independent Online. "The Clinton condom will be the top of our line," said Guangzhou Rubber Group spokesman Liu Wenhua, adding that Clinton should be honored by the product. "The names we chose are symbols of people who are responsible and dedicated to their jobs," he said.

I only have a(n incomplete) handful of episodes to go on, but the few I saw did seem more obviously formulaic to me than say E.R. or Chicago Hope, which are really the only med shows I ever watched, regularly.
