In early S6. They are almost painful to watch. I also miss the hospital setting, the familiarity of watching the same place becomes comforting six seasons in, lol. Anyone else feel this way about the first part of Season 6? It’s like all of the behavioral health center episodes kind of break my heart…

I guess anything he thought can be waved away with the fact he was hallucinating. But still, he should know better? Wilson even says so

There's an episode of House where they save a guy, and at the end he just disappears from the hospital. We find out in the last 10 seconds of the episode that this man is a serial killer who eats his victims. Then we just...move past it. I dont see anyone talking about it.

I think this sort of shows how great the show is, there are so many things to discuss, and this just sort of slips by because unbelievably its less interesting

Specifically, House’s mental decline/hallucinations. I’m doing a rewatch, but it’s difficult to tell what was real, and what was strictly a hallucination. Feel free to add any thoughts/opinions/feelings on the whole Cameron and Chase conflict…

ETA, I know that Cameron and Chase were not part of the hallucination. I just meant that I’d love to hear opinions/feelings regarding that aspect of the season/story.

besides wilson of course. house only hired people that he found interesting, and they often found him interesting in return but the show did a good job of establishing that that’s not the same as friendship

with thirteen he seemed to not only find her interesting, but genuinely enjoy her company, and he went far out of his way to involve himself in her personal life

there are also a few parallels between house’s relationship with thirteen and his friendship with wilson. house and wilson met when house bailed wilson out of jail at a conference- house later picked thirteen up from jail.

wilson and thirteen also both end up with fatal diagnoses, and house takes it upon himself to agree to be the last one with them in their final moments.

if you think about wilson and thirteen as his only friends it’s actually so fucking heartbreaking that he had to see them both go like that.

just was thinking about that. thoughts?

House sees Masters as his younger self. He relates to her almost instantly.

House always had morals and was always very sensitive, he got "corrupted" throughout the years because he's a doctor and because he's in pain. It screwed him up. His morals changed and twisted, results meant everything no matter what, Everything to solve the puzzle/save lives.

House notice Masters gift immediately. It makes him feel threatened and at the same time overprotective of her. Threatened because it makes him feel replaceable, and overprotective because he doesn't want her to end up like him. She is very similar to him: pragmatic, anti social and an exceptionally good doctor.

At the end she leaves her calling because she doesn't compromise her morals. Unlike house she completely listens to her "irrational" side as house would phrase it, and leaves the hospital.

What an amazing character
