I feel like I should point this out. . . House episodes are available on Amazon Unbox for download at $1.99 each, generally the day after they’ve been aired. This is how I watch them, as my Tuesday nights (and my Sunday nights) are busy, and the TiVo is at the house I need to finish moving out of. It’s two freaking bucks. And it’s Amazon, so it’s not some fly-by-night operation. I honestly think it’s your best bet if you’ve missed the show. And, bonus? It’s legal! ---

[QUOTE=OpalCat] How sad is it that I’ve been watching House since season 1 and I still think of Wilson as “that kid from _Dead Poets Society_”? [/QUOTE] It’s not that sad, I do the same thing. I think it’s because he’s damned near not aged since then and because he was mad in DPS because his dad wanted him to be a doctor, which in my parallel universe he did. ---

Was I the only one who was disappointed by the lack of “John Carpenter’s The Thing” references? ---

Yeah, what happened to Old Guy? He just kind of disappeared after House told him that he’d give him a dream job lacking a dream title. I thought he’d be around to help with diagnoses and things. ---

[QUOTE=Baldwin] Does “unofficial sites” mean illegal, bootleg streaming of a copyrighted tv show? I hope that’s not what you’re saying – unless the producers of the show are okay with it. [/QUOTE] I TiVo’d the show, but some stupid, lame-assed sports event pushed it back and so it cut off the end. I’m not going to sit on pins and needles wondering what happened next until Friday. I watched 80% of it from what I’d personally recorded off of the TV, and if I watched the remaining 20% from somebody else’s recording, I’m not going to go turn myself in to the FBI over it. Sorry. ---

[QUOTE=OpalCat] How sad is it that I’ve been watching House since season 1 and I still think of Wilson as “that kid from _Dead Poets Society_”? [/QUOTE] Wow. From now on, this is never going to leave my mind whenever I watch the show. :smack: ---
