I love Randomly capitalizing Words.

I will never understand how this show was popular, but I tend to feel that way about most pop culture so maybe it's just me.

It was a retelling of Sherlock Holmes, that’s the biggest reason.

And we like medical drama: ER, The Pitt, Gray's Anatomy... it was a good mix.

first let me say your opinion is valid, and it's ok to not like stuff or disagree with the majority. for me, i just really liked the character of house, someone who would do anything even if it violates the law or ethics in order to chase a high, whether it be the vicodin or the solution to the puzzle. there were some parts i didn't enjoy but i just always found him an enticing character to watch and see what boundary he would violate next.

I was wondering which line is most likely to come in. I think the middle row is a good bet in the earlier seasons (they had the CG inside body thing in basically every one)

Also maybe the top left to bottom right diagonal, but the blurry patient vision thing is not that common
