Oh please, I hope not! I became increasingly irritated with the long drawn-out process of House toying with the job applicants as the season went on.
I didn't mind it on House, but I really don't want that to happen on NCIS.
I like the ruffles.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I actually loved the process, but care nothing for the successful candidates. Especially Kumar. As far as I can see, he did utterly nothing during the selection process to warrant being chosen.

I thought for sure that he wasn't going to be one of the finalists, just because he has done a few films and I thought he'd want to continue to pursue films.

He was in 24, wasn't he? Maybe Kiefer is now his role model. "Jack Bauer. I could do that."

The criticism of "House" that I've seen, that it follows a format so closely and predictably that it has become stale and uninteresting, was not alleviated by the finalists. They just introduced a large cast of people I knew I didn't need to bother to care about, since most of them wouldn't last, and frankly I still don't care about them. And the format of the show stil has not changed. Patient shows up, House isn't interested, has to be forced to take the case, and the team makes a wrong diagnosis (or two or three) before saving the patient just before almost inevitable death. I know there were a few (very, very few) episodes that deviated (House goes to the CIA site, the doctor at the south pole, and the finale), but really the formula is as set in concrete as that of "Law and Order." I watch mostly for the House and Wilson interludes.

That's definitely something I'm enjoying more this season. Wilson is more fun than he was in Season 3.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
man. I'm not liking the season finales this year. I cannot recall being more depressed or dissatisfied in any tv season.
Criminal Minds just adds to my dissatisfaction. If "Lost" is fucked up, I will be in a mood for weeks.
