Has House gone into Chicago Hope territory? Last season things started to slow down, but I expected that they would speed up with the addition of the new doctors, and that maybe the show would get back into the "mystery diagnosis," format that it is famous for. However tonight's episode, was well not good. The mystery bus, and strange scenes with House attempting to figure out who was on it, felt awkward. House has always been a realistic show, and this episode was teetering on unrealistic and silly. Next week it looks like we get the will she live, will she die coma storyline, something which IMHO falls into daytime soap territory, and no longer works on prime time. It is starting to give me eerie flashbacks to the latter seasons of Chicago Hope, when we had musical episodes about aneurysms.
This gets me thinking, is it time for Hugh Laurie to leave? I know the title of the show is House, but many of the fans seem to be there for the ships? Would this show work simply as another ensemble medical drama, centered around Wilson, Cuddy, and the old and new crews of ducklings?
