Is anyone else watching Traveler?

Forgot all about it. Is this the second ep or have I missed some? The pilot was entertaining enough.
They're showing the pilot and the next ep.
I DVR'd Traveler just in case it was good. Is it good?
I enjoyed it.
Mmmm, House. Surprisingly satisfying conclusion to a rocky third season.
I have this theory that the non-medical drama in House is at its best when it's internal--something happening between the main cast members; and at its worst when the drama is generated by external forces--Vogler and Tritter and so forth.
Though I have to wonder how the internal drama will play out with three cast members resigned/fired. I am almost with the idea that it would work to get a new team in, but I worry that it will be one of those fake-outs--oh no, wait! The real cast is back!
My love for Chase, like, quintupled. I really have grown to like him a lot more over the last five episodes or so, and he's shown surprising depth. (Not to mention his ridiculous hotness at the diner. Yowza.)
I just--I can't completely reconcile this with House making stand-in team on the plane from a few episodes ago. Yes, okay, he hates change. But even hating change, he still went out of his way to create a scenario that represented the same people he uses, and I wonder how well he will operate with a new team to deal with. If he gets a new team.
Either way, I'm interested enough to watch the fourth season. Which is something I wasn't too sure on during the whole Tritter thing.
I missed Traveler this week due to family stuff, but I expect the prospect of looking at Matthew Bomer will at least get me to tape it temporarily.
Matthew Bomer
It's like someone thought one Sean Maher wasn't enough.
Somebody pimp Traveler to me. Why am I interested?
House: I wouldn't be surprised if he has to take back at least one of the team because Cuddy doesn't want to deal with explaining why one of her department heads had a complete purge of his staff. Especially *that* department head.
But, please! Let Cameron go! Such a happier show if there was a woman who wasn't hot for House. Hell, make her gay and amused by him, and he can be snide and intrigued by her worldview and he can try to matchmake her with Cuddy.
And I want to see Cuddy get pregnant. That could run the whole season and be the cliffhanger at the end.
