Dr. Gregory House #18: Episode Discussion 8x21 - "Holding On"


HOUSE - SEASON 8 "This is not a democracy"




::Made by Mrs.Almeida (Jen)::


The Thinking Woman's Sex Symbol
"I think the expression "thinking woman's sex symbol" was actually brought back into circulation for Dr. House.
He's got wit. He's got game. He's got bad boy attitude, and he needs to be saved.
He's also got the largest collection of rumpled, vintage-Ts I've ever seen, but that's a subject for a different day, a different list."
~From the TV Squad blogs, blogger Julia Ward~

Episode 8x03 "Charity Case"



Olivia Wilde and Wentworth Miller ("Prison Break") Guest Star

When Benjamin (guest star Wentworth Miller) suddenly collapses after making a rare and generous donation, House and Dr. Chi Park are convinced that his extreme altruistic behavior may indicate a deeper medical disorder. With no definitive explanation for Benjamin's loss of consciousness and unresponsiveness to treatment, House pushes just the right buttons to recruit former prison doctor Jessica Adams to volunteer her time and expertise to the case. Benjamin then makes a bold but life-threatening offer that could save another life, and the team must diagnose his disorder before he puts his own life on the line. Meanwhile, Adams and Park test each other's outlook on generosity and gratitude, and Thirteen's guilt conflicts with her pursuit of personal happiness on an all-new "Charity Case" episode of HOUSE airing Monday, Oct. 17 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (HOU-803) (TV-14 D, L)

Cast: Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House; Robert Sean Leonard as Dr. James Wilson; Omar Epps as Dr. Eric Foreman; Jesse Spencer as Dr. Robert Chase; Peter Jacobson as Dr. Chris Taub; Odette Annable as Dr. Jessica Adams; Charlyne Yi as Dr. Chi Park

Guest Cast: Olivia Wilde as Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley; Wentworth Miller as Benjamin; Toni Trucks as Trina, Joanna Strapp as Kate; Ron Perkins as Dr. Ron Simpson; Jacklyn Jonet as Amy; Rene Hamilton as Carol; Niko Baur as Clancy; Bobbin Bergstrom as Nurse

It was 13 last episode Kali What a cool farewell cake I think they gave her a good exit episode! I can't believe she was part of the show for 3 years!


So Charity Case was a another good episode. The case was cool because until a point you didn't know if he was just generous or really sick And I can see that Wentworth Miller is a ladies man I liked that they explained the diagnosis with CG effects again with Hugh's voice over. Interesting case, well done!

The clinic patient was funny, cute boy and the reaction of Mom was hilarious

Park and Adams were funny together and I love that House is playing them both. Oh and the opening shot of Hugh shaving his hair I LOVED IT! So hot and drool worthy
Also, I like his new outfits, the shirt tucked in plus a belt, it's sexy. And the shoes are epic!

Love the pics of the farewell cake, though it's sad that 13 is gone I liked how she ended it with House, they have a good understanding of each other.

I liked this one overall, although it felt a little slow at times. I like the new characters, especially Adams, but it just all feels so different at the moment. It's going to take some getting used to I guess. Foreman is just annoying (but then he always was ) I think it'll all fit into place when Chase and Taub are back (even though I hate Taub )

Yay for the clinic patient part, I hope we get more of these!

OMG That was soooo sexy!! I knew he was going to lose the long hair this ep, but I didn't expect that And House did a great job on his hair!! I love it!!

They did, although I was never a fan of 13 because I never thought she was that interesting, but her goodbye was heartfelt and House letting her go was nice

It does feel different, yes, I'm still waiting for the original ducks to come back I know it's lame. But I try to embrace the new characters and enjoy them and I think the writers doing a great job so far.
Yeah Foreman is annoying, he's on a real power trip and I think he just annoyed with everything. If you are DoM, aren't you excited about your new job and want to do good things with that power? I don't get it. But at least, as DoM he gets less screen time

First step back to old House

I didn't expect that either, I thought we would just see him with short hair.
The only thing missing was that after he finished cutting the hair, he should have taken off his shirt to clean the hair off of it

The shoes are awesome
Ok, we got the ones with the yellow sole and the one with the bright red one, are those Nike's? Love them!!! Want them!!!
ETA: They are from the Nike Lunar Collection

OK I was not able to comment soon, because I wanted to watch the episode a couple of times. And Now ....
I liked it, even if less than 802, I felt like everything was so calm, too calm. it seemed as if behind every dialog, was hidden another far more tense AND unsaid .... I do not know if it makes sense what I'm writing ....

btw I loved it: the relation House / 13, as they have left( so sweet); Adams / Park in their little game of power struggle, then proved to be the game of manipulation of House; House in the clinic (yeees!).
I did not like: Foreman = the bad copy of Cuddy (same behavior, but far less attractive!)

Definitily a very promising start to the season, and yes, I see the House first way, with something fresh and new.

The hair cut scene...ooh ooh ooh...really sexy!!!
I would shorthed a little the beard! I'm not complaining...no no no, I'm not!

^ What you're writing makes sense

I'm really liking the relationship between Park and Adams and how House played them both and I agree that it's like a fresh start for House.

Bring on the rest of the season!

I thought the same thing

Now THAT would have made it the best episode EVER!!

Wohoo! Yes, same here! I can't wait where they will go this season. I mean, they have so many doors open, where will House's journey take him?
