And we just cruised past PBS and saw an episode of "Jeeves and Wooster." It's so weird to think, "And he grows up to be House."

OMG, I laughed. And laughed.
And Cuddy! "There will be a Wilson chalk mark on the floor when it's over."

Is House a procedural? is it all those procedures?
And - talking about Bones - you'd think that with three CSIs, Bones, etc., on TV people would have learned (aside from what a furry is) not to leave any bodily fluids behind if they kill someone.

Art Crawl!!!
Tom Fontana (formerly of Homicide: LOTS) has left the new show The Philanthropist because his vision was too dark for NBC.

Toddson, despite the soapy aspects of House, it's the diagnostic aspect of it that puts it in the procedural category. I think it's about 60/40 diagnostic/soap. Unlike Gray's Anatormy, which is more like 70/30 soap/medical. We don't cotton to the soaps here, that's Minearverse. *g*

Yeah, we can criticize the stupid diagnoses and the Victim of the Week. Plus make much of House/Wilson.

Before I translated the acronym, my first response was, "Yeah, true, dead bodies everywhere."

Is House a procedural?
Interestingly enough, yes. David Shore and Paul Attanasio conceived it as a procedural with germs as the suspects.

Also from upthread: I've been a little skeeved, if amused, by Hodgins and Angela carrying on at work. It *is* terribly unprofessional, not to mention I don't even want to think about going for a pencil in a supply room where that's been going on.
I know! There are something like 8 or 10 marriages that've come from our workplace and most of the time, most of the people don't know even know the parties are dating until they announce their engagement!
Cuddy's lines were great, starting with the Wilson chalkmark on the floor. Also? (paraphrasing) I assume by "sleeping with" that you mean talk with? House: no, etc. Cuddy: Well this hospital administrator has to go "sleep with" the accounting department now.
Also, she's got a new haircut. It looks great.
