Don't forget, all of this while popping Vicodin from the moment he wakes up.

Dudes doing this while on a constant hydro wave.

Then drives into a living room.

It's moments like this that remind me that I have no ability to put things together.

It's not even subtle, House literally lives at 221B Baker Street.

Yeah... and Avatar is Pokemon.

The reddit has taken over.

If you're implying we're making connections that don't exist the show creator David Shore has stated in interviews that Sherlock is a big part of the inspiration for the character

Hey, they could have renewed Cuddy's contract!

f* Fox.

Absolutely agree, Fox can eat rotten goat ass, I just love the absolutely insane escalation as the show went on.

The extremely rare and interesting diseases weren't enough, no, they needed to hit levels that make daytime soaps question what's going on while still somehow sticking to "He's Sherlock, but a doctor. In prison!"

I was young when I watched the show and thought it was at least somewhat based on real medical science.

Though I got skeptical when I saw an episode where they trained a computer on brainwaves present when they looked at different pictures and used that to visually reconstruct the patient’s lost memories or some shit?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There was one where they sorta see a dream the patient is having from brainwaves, which is sci-fi, but at least based on actual research. I don't remember why they assumed that would help diagnose the patient, but it probably didn't make much sense.

There's also one where House recreates his list memories by taking many drugs

science fiction for now

Just think, it won't be long until now until the tech bros implant chips in us, and then governments can use them to determine our loyalty to our Great Nations and Fearless Leaders! It will be a glorious time for unity among our people, I'm sure.

Gell-Man phenomenon: popular media is accurate and trustworthy, except on any subject where you know better.

...no, they needed to hit levels that make daytime soaps question what’s going on while still somehow sticking to “He’s Sherlock, but a doctor. In prison!”

-He even liked to watch soaps on the show.
