I think that might have been one of the first eps that I watched, and while the storytelling was great, it turned me off of the character immediately.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Just watched House. the character of House is interesting because he is truely only motivated by one thing -- what is making this person ill. Everything else - including his addiction to drugs ( which I still question) can be dropped if an ill person goes by.
Foreman is an annoying character. he just wants to be right. So he does stupid shit. But he could be interesting if he didn't think he was a house clone. And I suspect that he could be a good diagnostician if he didn't let his ego get in the way.
This is the first episde where Chase was interesting. Even though I disagree with him
Carmen and Cuddy are the characters I really like -- mostly because them struggle with the concept of balance. A shifting question , so the answer is never static.
I'd like to see House back in charge.

for those who like Southland and L&O:SVU, here's a new NYT article about the debacle that is NBC and how their programming decisions are having rippling effects:

Huh. I wonder why episodes 2 and 3 of the season were up on demand but the premiere wasn't?

Why did Sasha Alexander (Kate) decide to leave NCIS? Or was she asked to leave?

Connie, I had read that she asked to be let out of her contract because she found the filming schedule to be too much for her.

Oh, OK. I kind of miss her, though her goody-two-shoesness was annoying. It was nice not having to explain everything, like they do with Ziva. It would have been fun to see what McGee did with her in his book. I wonder if McGee will ever publish his second book.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I thought I'd miss Kate until about the third episode with Ziva, and then I decided I liked Ziva better. (Sorry, Kate.) I'm with Connie Neil; Kate was fun at first, but her goody-two-shoes holier-than-thou routine became annoying real fast.

I liked Kate, and I still miss her on the show. I thought her and Tony would eventually get together.

Fraternization is why she lost her job on the Secret Service. Surely she wouldn't do that again. Besides, Gibbs said he'd fire her if she did.
