I'm probably too late for that now anyway . . . . But Dinah recaps really well so I'm set.<br /><br />I do understand when one dislikes/mislikes a show, tho.<br /><br />On House, I've got a like/love/hate thing going on. He's gorgeous, but he sucks. <br /><br />When they had the Mormon character on, I hated how he treated him, but I noted that he was consistent in how horrible he treated him in the same ways he throws out religious and other bigoted and crappy and obnoxious, crude, and lewd rude and socially inappropriate remarks around. So, I noted it was consistent with the character. He was treating him the same as anyone else, and not treating him badly JUST BECAUSE of his particular religion - the religion happened to be one of the things he could pick at, but it didn't really matter to him at all.<br /><br />I was still offended though, as I am on behalf of the other religions, etc. <br /><br />I continue to watch, because I think they use him to show that such behavior is unacceptable (well then why does he still have his job? he has had to deal with a variety of consequences, especially personally . . . . . .)<br /><br />That, and I think Foreman killed what's his name that I feel really badly I can't remember the name of.

The conventional wisdom is that ER docs know a little about everything, and a lot about nothing; orthopods are strong as oxes, and just a bit smarter than one; and when you can't cut it in medicine (but still have the student loans), you turn to psychiatry. Imagine, keepers of the human psyche! As Animal Mother said in <I>Full Metal Jacket</I>,"We're like green giants walking the earth." Oddly, our demographic actually experiences the TV speaking to them...FooFoo5https://www.blogger.com/profile/06459026418242101033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-61739753238554257742009-04-09T01:49:00.000-04:002009-04-09T01:49:00.000-04:00I'm with you.

I don't miss it.<BR/><BR/>When people talk about the latest LOST episode, House, American Idol, etc. I just don't get it. I do not see the appeal and honestly I do not care what happens. I've gotten so out of practice with watching TV that if I sit down in front of it I am usually bored in about five minutes.<BR/><BR/>Despite what anon. said, books just do it better for me.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18012100875719616898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26666124.post-57409371267329715462009-04-08T12:06:00.000-04:002009-04-08T12:06:00.000-04:00So far I've successfully avoided watching In Tx.

Problem is when a patient watches it and expects me to understand the references.
