House

What the hell was that? Did anyone see this coming at all?! Kal Penn wasn’t even in the show at all, so what happened there?!

In other news, after 3 and a half weeks, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I have been so insanely sick, last week I didn’t show up to work once.

Spoilers? You call that spoilers? I didn’t get it at all. Of course, our last night’s episode was the one with the agoraphobic guy, or the one right after House snogged Cutty after she “lost” the baby, so I’m sure we’re nowhere near you in episodes.

  I *think* that one aired here in late November? A week or two before the Christmas break?

  It is hard for me to spoil it even behind a cut, but I knew that the comments would definitely spoil. And yeah, those were a while ago.

I saw it coming somewhat. Local radio station broadcast a major spoiler about two weeks ago. The only thing they didn’t say was who it was going to be, or how. 🙁

Since the suspense was mostly killed for me, I did find that particular episode unnecessarily dark, lighting wise. It was like watching last week’s CSI.

  Well, that certainly sucks. TV didn’t ruin it for me and I don’t really listen to the radio, so I was ok.

    I steer clear of network TV unless I’m watching a show on it, if I can.
    
    Glad to hear you’re starting to feel better though!
    
    (and omg! Kal Penn is working for a new house!!)

I have no idea what the hell that was. Seriously, when they showed him on the ground I was all :0!! What do they think this is, ER?

Still, I liked how it came as a total shock, such as it were. Funny guys are always the ones in pain, especially the ones with memories of murdered parents. They set it up nicely with his past and sensitive streak, always trying to patch things up, sometimes in vain. Oh Kutner. Oh Taub.

  Also, glad you’re feeling better! It was about time. Here’s to you not getting sick for at least another month or so. 😉
  
  Hope Photographer’s Night is a smashing success!

    Thank you 🙂
    
    I’m still sick, and last night sucked, but all I can say is that I am way better than I have been.

  Yeah, I guess you’re right, funny guys in pain. :/
  
  Did you hear why they killed him off? He’s going to the White House! http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/2009/04/07/2009-04-07_actor_kal_penns_surprise_suicide_on_hous.html

    Yeah, I saw it on ew.com. Pretty bizarre — apparently he helped during Obama’s campaign? Who knew. Seriously.

    That is friggin awesome. I’m glad he’s leaving for something that awesome. Good for him. I wish they hadn’t killed him off like that. I would have liked to see him royally piss off House to where he got fired or quit but really crossing House. You know?

      It’s interesting that you say that because this is the best way to mess with House. Not that he did it to mess with him. But the fact that House never saw it coming, the fact that he can’t figure this out, it totally screws with him.

The guy’s apparently taking a job at the White House lol. “Penn, 31, will become associate director in the White House Office of Public Liaison, administration officials confirmed Tuesday.”

Good on him.. but kill Kutner off?! He could’ve just left, gotten married er, anything else.. brrr

  If he had to absolutely leave, which he did, they did a good job. I’m just glad it wasn’t an arbitrary “you know what would be cool and shocking?” kinda thing.

I only just started watching “House” in reruns. I am thoroughly hooked. I love his quirkiness. The last one I watched was where the mother had her 14 yr. old son taking care of her due to a ‘supposed’ mental illness and she called DCFS on herself. It was really good.
