[@matttv94]

House is a show I love but I can honestly say I’ve never watched it all the way through. I always found it to get a bit samey. They get a patient, dr’s think it’s some obscure disease they treat for that disease and it makes the patient worse which then means it has to be the other really obscure illness.

[@oliverzhou3758]

omg i've got the same feelings here and i've watched the entire show for like five times🤣

[@bennylloyd-willner9667]

@@matttv94 I agree on that, but that's true with almost all TV series. Take crime shows: 1) reason of death is clear and perpetrator is obvious. 2) but wait! A detective or lab worker finds an intricate clue (mostly by looking at data flashing and beeping on an extremely unergonomic transparent monitor) . 3) the correct culprit is deviously tricked to stay in touch and be proven guilty😁. The thing that makes this stand out is the dialog and characters, what disease the patient of the day has is irrelevant to me😁

[@invisiblearchives]

@@matttv94 its all about the b-plots, the main plot is literally designed to be samey its a medical format show like ER. I think its worth watching the character arcs if you like watching the show. If you dont like the show format or the characters then yeah its pointless to watch any further.

The facetious question on the thumbnail, “Is it still illegal to do an autopsy on a living person?” Brought up an interesting point. In Ancient Rome, it was illegal to do an autopsy or dissection on a DEAD person for some religious belief they had. So to learn anatomy, they would find someone who was pretty near death, like someone brought in from the arena games, and dissect them while still alive. This practice was called “vivisection”. Of course this would hasten their death. Then as soon as the person died, they had to stop the cutting.
