I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Given that it's a House season finale: Was there another patient?

I think the fact that we saw both patients in scenes without House means that they both existed.

I loved the scene where Cuddy took House to Wilson and how Wilson immediately twigged to "this is something very big". And House finally stripped bare.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Carl Reiner was brilliant, but did they ever figure out what was really wrong with the other patient?

Arhythmia and clots caused by chemicals in the deodorant. Which also caused the seizures, so he never needed the surgery to split his brain in half to begin with.

Wow. Not only was that an awesome episode that reconciles me to some of the plot holes in the previous episode (or what looked like plot holes), it also reconciles me to the directing of this episode, which I thought was unnecessarily gimmicky.

Yes.

This too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Castle has one the father/daughter/no mother relationships I find the most palatable--they're quite charming.

And in this week's ep the detecting was well spread across the team--not just a last minute idea by Castle. I hope it sticks around, and she doesn't get too pissed off about what he's going to tell her about her mother.

“Not dead yet!”

Castle has one the father/daughter/no mother relationships I find the most palatable--they're quite charming.

What was it? "He's quiet, keeps to himself, and lives with his parents. Does that not sound like a serial killer?"

And his mother schooling him on the workings of the female mind.

The only other father/daughter team I like nearly as much is the one on Eureka, although the one on Lie To Me isn't bad either, though seriously underutilized in comparison.

Art Crawl!!!

I loved the father/daughter stuff in this episode. Really good - and I agree it's definitely one of the best father/daughter relationships on tv.

Also, loved the color of Alexis' prom dress.

And uh, was THAT the season finale? Because: evil.

I loved everything about it on her. It was so refreshing to see a fifteen year-old looking like a fifteen year-old and not some jaded thirty-five year-old Upper East Side divorcée.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I loved the father/daughter scenes - when she came out in the right dress and he didn't say anything, just stood up and stared, I got all sniffly.

And then she got to be the grownup and told him to put away the head and take off the blood-stained coat.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Excellent NCIS tonight. The female agent reminded me of Kate, but I really wanted Abby to tell her that she could kill her without leaving any forensic evidence.
