I hope the special effects industry is done making improvements to baby dummies now. They really don’t need to be more realistic. Watching an obviously fake baby drown in the bathtub or be resuscitated is sufficently disturbing.
Yeah. I thought that was pretty cool. He still had enough of a limp, but also just showed how that adreneline was pumping enough to get him moving!
And I agree about the baby dummies. I would much rather complain about fake looking babies than have to watch ones that look too real going through some of the stuff that happens on TV and in the movies. It’s too heart breaking.
I wondered about that too; they did have him include a nominal gimp as part of the second shot of him running.
It was Foreman, Chase was in the NCU.
Does anyone find it interesting how much comparable difficulty we have keeping names straight as compared to something like Lost, or other drama threads?
I always get “Chase” and “Cameron” mixed up since they’re similar and now androgynous names. Although now I am thinking of Chase as the cute British singer in Uptown Girls. And those two are dating IRL.
Maybe we can get vivalostwages to include in next week’s episode’s thread opener a short blurb to remind people who is who.
House - MD, General Bastard. Has a cane.
Cuddy - Hospital administrator
Wilson - House’s only friend
House’s Team:
Cameron - Hot chick
Chase - White guy
Foreman - Black guy
You know, maybe a little funnier 
Stacy: House’s ex-wife
Mark: Stacy’s new man (husband?)
Here are a few trivia quizzes.
Did I misunderstand what’s going on with Cuddy? Isn’t she putting the cart before the horse? Or don’t you usually conduct auditions first and then start the drugs?
The way I see it. Foreman’s near death is a wake up to her. It could have been her who was about to die. And she’s suddenly VERY eager to get some things started in her life - like motherhood apparently.
So she bought the meds and is getting prepped so as soon as she finds a ahem donor, then she can get going.
The doctor who reviews every episode over at Polite Dissent didn’t like that either, noting that an oncologist like Wilson definitely ought to know better.
But she’s ovulating NEXT WEEK!! Sperm donor to Cuddy’s office, STAT!
so the child died because of the wheat in antibiotic aggravated his coelic’s disease?
Best quote of the night: House: (talking about coffee) I take it black. Like I take my brain-damaged neurologists
No, the wheat made it impossible (or very hard) for him to absorb the medicine. His mother smothered him.

Many thanks for the link to Polite Dissent. I’ve always wondered about the accuracy of the medical aspects of House.

I’ll think about it.
I can’t keep character names straight in just about any show (or book for that matter). Except things like Star Trek where we had endless years to learn the names.
Well usually I do alright, and I admit I’ve House down fairly well. But it seems like the House threads always have people confused as to who is who…
Can someone confirm… Did House fire (or indicate he was going to fire) Foreman towards the end of the show?
There was something in their exchange that lead me to believe that House didn’t want Foreman if he couldn’t get the Foreman he hired (as opposed to the new, improved one :rolleyes: ) back.
Um, I didn’t get that impression, no…?
