House: Frozen
By fred | February 4, 2008
(S04E11) It doesn’t feel like the last time we saw House was so long ago, and it wasn’t really. We had one new episode last Tuesday, this Sunday we got an episode right after the Superbowl, and then this Tuesday guess what ? A new House is on, too ! Yeah, we’ve been missing the show for some time now, and suddenly it there, it’s all there, almost every day. The only problem with that is that Tuesday, this might be the last episode of the season.
Or not, should the strike end soon there could be hope for four or five more episodes, who knows?
So this episode was the one after the Superbowl, but it wasn’t really a “Superbowl special”, because if something special for the event was originally planned, and logically it would have been a two-parter with conclusion on Tuesday, this couldn’t happen due to the strike, and instead this episode, which hasn’t been written for the event but as a regular episode, was promoted to this special slot.
Of course, that doesn’t mean it was good, far from it. In its regular Tuesday slot House is always fantastic, why should this episode be any different ?

(S04E12) I have very mixed feelings towards this episode. No, not about the episode itself, but about the fact that what we saw here might be the last episode of the season, due to the writers’ strike. Of course, it could not be the case, should things go as good as possible the strike might be over by next week, people back to work soon after that and there may be four or five more episodes added to the season. Or not. We’ll have to wait and see.
(S04E13) It’s been way too long. Of course, we were help with the return of other shows in the mean time, and we could obsess over Lost, that always takes some time, but regardless it’s been way too long since we hadn’t had the pleasure of welcoming America’s favorite doctor on the air. So before everything else, this episode was the first one produced after the strike, it was the first we got to see in a too long time, for that only I think it was great.
(S04E14) House is not a medical drama. Well, yes of course it is a medical drama, one filled with humor so much that some could be tempted to call it a dramedy, but that’s not the point. The point is that while there is a medical drama going on in the back, we all know the show is character-driven, and likes to wander about philosophical questions regarding happiness, life after death, meaning of existence, and plenty more.
(S04E15) Alright, so I finally got a chance to sit back and watch last night’s episode of House, and I was expecting a lot from it. Many reasons for that, first it is House and I always expect a lot from this show, because it is that good. Second, I previously watched How I Met Your Mother, and as much as I love the show, 
(S04E16) Another series ends its season, but this time it started one week ago. Last week we had the first part of this season finale, and it was a very special episode. While usually House is all about the medical mystery - well, when it comes to mystery at least - last week everything medical took a step down as we dived into the mysteries of memory.
