Oh before I forget again, on House did we ever learn why he got shot and who did it? Or has it been dropped completely?

For all I know, I missed the one episode where this was explained.

As far as I can remember, we never learned who it was. I think it was mentioned offhand that the guy was in jail, but that's it.

I don't recall finding out who or why. I also have no memory of the guy being sent to jail. I thought he was still out there somewhere.

I don't remember hearing anything either. I'd like to think they're not going to drop it.

I remember something I wanted to mention. When they were trying to talk Dad into authorizing that surgery for the little girl and Cameron mentioned her dead husband, I looked at Hubby and said, "Wow, she played the dead husband card." Then House looked at her and said, "I can't believe you played the dead husband card." I was highly amused.

A Martinez (in Raines) killed me dead, as he often does. Well, not often, because he's not on my TV enough. And the guy who played the victim in the ep? Rrrawwrrr.

oh yes. to both.

I went to Target this afternoon and while there noticed they have quite a few of their dvd sets on sale. so i bit the bullet and bought Bones season 1 for $17.99. i figure if i hate it, i can sell/give it to my aunt once i'm finished because she really likes the show.

now i just have to find the time to watch it...

I thought House was shot by the husband of a woman he couldn't save (a case we didn't see, possibly one that wasn't interesting enough for him to really take on). Or was that just in his hallucination? Or mine, I suppose.

Just watched Desperate Housewives (again, not completely sure it goes in here rather than Comedy, but it's an hour long, so I'll put it here for now) and I have to say my biggest emotional reaction was to Susan throwing out the cakes. Because that is just a sad waste of cake. DH and I discussed for more than a couple of minutes all the better ways she could have disposed of them - she's got neighbors, a daughter, people she needs to discuss the problem that the cakes symbolize, all those people would be better off with cake.

I think it was his hallucination, -t. I guess I always assumed that at least the person in the hallucination was correct, but you know what they say about assumptions.

Of course, I have a memory like a sieve, so maybe we're both wrong.

re: house being shot, from wikipedia:

Jack Moriarty is a vengeful individual who shoots House in the second season finale, "No Reason." His wife was once a patient of House, and in the process of investigating her illness, House pressured Moriarty to tell him the absolute truth. Moriarty revealed to House that he had had an affair; although this fact was medically irrelevant to her illness, House told Moriarty's wife. Consequently, Moriarty's wife committed suicide (how much of this is true is open to debate, for this information is revealed to the audience during House's hallucination).

In the hallucination that results from Moriarty's attack on House, Moriarty is wheeled to the same intensive care unit House is in. There, Moriarty proceeds to psychoanalyze House, though it turns out at the end that this is actually House conversing with his subconscious. It is revealed in the episode, "Meaning", that Moriarty was never caught for shooting House.

The name "Moriarty" is never used in the episode itself; rather, only appearing in the press releases and script for the episode. It is one of many parallels to Sherlock Holmes, as noted above; it's the name of the great detective's nemesis Professor Moriarty.

Rather surprising that more people haven't shot House.
