A blind patient may be rendered deaf; House’s mother shows up to tell him she has a new beau. ---

Might this be postponed because the Daytona 500 is on tonight? ---

Right now, the plan is to postpone it, which brings up the question of when do they air it, since House is supposed to start a month-long hiatus followed by what I assume is a run of new episodes until its finale. (My guess: they’ll air it next Monday, in place of one of the two Alcatraz episodes they have planned, and then push the Alcatraz schedule back a week, even if it means airing the season finale on Memorial Day or even June 4.) One thing does worry me: Fox has been known to air shows during NASCAR rain delays, although these tend to be shows that are scheduled to air after the race. Still, if it starts to rain at Daytona (and the radar at 5 PM showed a small rain cell headed in Daytona’s direction), they might decide to air that scheduled episode of House after all. ---

No _House_. Just a bunch of cars going in a circle. Is this really more popular? ---

Which car is the patient of the week driving? Because that could liven up the race. ---

When there was no crash @ 15 minutes past the hour, I knew I was not watching house. ---

I think House was shown last night in Canada, or it’s online somewhere. There’s talk about the episode on the IMDB boards, which I avoided reading. (Other than to check to see if it WAS pre-empted and not just my TV, lol.) ---

My TIVO says that the episode is being shown 3/9 at 4:00 PM on FOX. I have no idea if that’s still correct or not. They may replace it with a video of paint drying or something. ---

I liked Mom’s tricks (the hospital wristband and the cancer book) to get Wilson to tell House he had to go and see her. Classic House-style maneuvering. I guess he gets it from her. ---

Be careful if you have Tivo: Unless you have your season pass set up for all episodes including duplicates, Tivo thinks you already recorded this episode and might not record it again if they reschedule it within 28 days.
