Seeing Alvie’s look at his best friend leaving and that moment of realization that “maybe taking meds like my friend will help me too” is in the top 3 moments for me of the entire series.

[@ACZiemba326]

100% agree. These two episodes always make me so emotional

[@jayblack8843]

Whats even more inspiring is Alvie managed to get better, and go on to write the worldwide musical sensation Hamilton.

I used to be against this but looking at it now, I wish it had happened for them but I truly understand trying to make it work with your family

[@doomsdayaddams2894]

Two of the best actors ever.

[@superschmolz]

I miss Homicide: Life on the Streets 😊 Braugher was so good in that. As was Richard Belzer. Long live Det. Munch.

[@doomsdayaddams2894]

@@superschmolz I love that they moved Munch to Law and Order. If you haven’t seen Men of a Certain Age, watch it. Braugher is great in it!

[@superschmolz]

@@doomsdayaddams2894 Munch was a great fit on those shows.

[@anthonymendez1997]

If this was the last scene in the series, I wouldn’t be opposed to it. In this scene, House is off Vicodin, but more importantly he has learned to connect with people and be vulnerable with them. Just like Nolan said, House reached out for help when he was hurting instead of resorting to Vicodin. That’s a complete transformation for House! Also, Chase and Cameron are newly married, Cuddy has the baby she always wanted, 13 and Foreman are still a couple, Taub and his wife have reconciled their differences, and Wilson isn’t dying of cancer. In the Season 8 finale, Cameron and Cuddy are gone, 13 was pushed to the way-side, Taub has two daughters and a complex relationship with each mother of that child, and Wilson has a death sentence of cancer. We were also introduced to two characters who just came in and left for one season. Moreover, House’s main problem with addiction and emotional baggage are not completely resolved. I don’t think the show goes to hell after this, but if you wanted a complete and happy ending, this is where you should stop watching the series.

[@wolffiegaming]

That's kinda the point though. From the beginning to the end the idea that "People don't change" is engrained in it. House says it all the time. There maybe spurts of change. There was time when I actually questioned if this was just an act by House. I don't think it was... but I honestly couldn't rule it out.

[@anthonymendez1997]

@@wolffiegaming This is the weird oxymoron. He’s changed, but he’s still the same House that we know. I think House has changed for the better with him no longer being dependent on Vicodin, but he’s still the brilliant doctor that he always took pride in. It’s not just about House being happy, but rather having a clean ending without any loose ends and that’s what the series finale doesn’t have. This scene has that and i can’t find another point in the series that has those attributes.

[@fludderkiddie]

I think that’s the point… According to Dr House AND F. Nietzsche (from what I remember, could’ve been someone else) “Life IS Pain”

[@nmotschidontwannagivemyrea8932]

The show ending in bittersweet tragedy isn't necessarily "bad", for a piece of media that's trying to portray parts of the human condition.

[@EXPSanity]

Reminds me of Bojack Horseman

[@Doctor2285]

Rest in peace, Andre Braugher (1962-2023). Thank you for all your incredible performances throughout the years.

[@garybusey9941]

Some of Houses happiest moments were in that psychiatric hospital.

[@ghost9-9ghost]

Whats not to love about an Asylum? There's a reason we use that word in multiple ways....often meaning protection....

[@captainwithers]

man, watching alvie ask for his meds to get better and then seeing that doctor smile just gets me everytime. you can see that the doctor knows that he has made up his mind to become healthier and go back to the world. and i absolutely love it!

[@OopsOlliePopp]

Alvie is one of my all time favourite characters, he was so sweet and inspirational and felt so genuine. The way he bonded with house always felt so real and I miss watching them 🥺

[@hollyb6885]

Alvie was HILARIOUS and so lovable in the Baggage episode too.

[@OopsOlliePopp]

@@hollyb6885 he really was 😭😭 I wish we saw more of him

[@ernestomoreno4409]

Was his character inspired by the Sopranos?

[@Valientlink]

I felt that they backpedaled House's character quite a bit after this. He seemed more empathetic during the first 2 seasons in particular and we never got to see him there for Wilson as he was dying. His reaction to it would've been the ultimate climax: sadness, tears, emotions we've never seen from him

[@darthimperious1594]

That said, he kinda has a point when he starts backpedaling: Everyone else in his life is happier, but he's still miserable and alone. Takes a very strong character to continue to push yourself to be a good person when the only result of that is you get taken advantage of.

[@tnwalkercowboy3871]

Hugh Laurie has always been an amazing actor. It's sad that the show ended but the ending is flawless nonetheless. Every show has its own drama, suspense, and humor. Hope for the future of all actors and love to see their future work

If anybody here is thinking that a stay in the mental hospital would benefit them, do not hesitate. It is the best thing that could ever have happened to me. If I hadn't been admitted against my own will, I would 100% have ended it all. Never give up on yourself, because there is most definitely somebody who will mourn your life.

I think this is an anti cuckoo’s nest. House starts by thinking the staff are his enemies and has to learn they’re there to help him.

[@messinalyle4030]

So Wilson isn't the only man that House has gotten close enough with for people to think that. Knowing how people sexualize a certain level of intimacy, that could mean that House just had a lot of capacity for emotional intimacy under his gruff exterior--or it could mean that he was a closet bisexual.

This was kinda a high point for House in a way I think. He legitimately took steps to get better and was better...then he made the biggest mistake of getting involved with Cuddy and staying at Princeton-Plainsboro. He alwyas would have been better in research.

House would be miserable in research. He may say he doesn’t care about patients but everybody lies. His actions prove he cares deeply about his patients even if he denies it with his words.

I think he knew it wasn’t attempted manslaughter because house is smart enough that if he wanted to hurt someone he would have. I bet he was disappointed and concerned. Series finale spoilers: Dr Nolan believes he failed house and house ended up dying in a fire while high on heroin. He doesn’t know that house is alive and did benefit from Dr Nolan’s care.
