Alltag bei den beiden? Wohl kaum, jedenfalls nicht so, wie man es im allgemeinen versteht!
Mir allein fallen so viele Sachen ein mit denen man die Zuschauer mindestens weitere 10 Staffeln als kleiner „Nebenkriegsschauplatz“ unterhalten kann, den Drehbuchautoren dann um so mehr.

Sie werden happy sein und sich an die Gurgel gehen, sich zusammenraufen und doch wieder versagen, sich lieben und furchtbar nerven….
Keiner der Beiden hat bislang eine längerfristige erfolgreiche Beziehung geführt, nicht ohne Grund, wie ich meine. Vor allem House wird sich wie der Elefant im Porzellanladen verhalten.
Und dann noch all die Ducklings, die Cuddy wahrscheinlich für ihre Entscheidung gleich in Mayfield einweisen lassen wollen.

Ich freu mich jetzt schon drauf.
Es wird ja nicht so sein, dass der Schwerpunkt der Serie auf Huddy liegen wird (obwohl mir der neue Titel „Huddy MD“ schon gefallen würde ).
Aber für eine kleine Nebenstory hier und da taugt das schon sehr .….natürlich darf es auch mal ein bisserl mehr als eine Nebenstoryline sein :lala:

Author’s Note: Don’t own House. If I did, well we would not have been subjected to that drivel last night (if you haven’t seen season 6’s finale, don’t read the rest of this note). I’ll skip over the ludicrousness of sending the administrator and the cripple to the accident scene or shipping critically injured patients from Trenton all the way to Princeton. My biggest complaint is with the last 5 minutes. The notion that House, torn up over the loss of Hanna, the incredibly cruel and heartless things Cuddy said to him, and in physical pain from crawling through rubble, would just magically get ALL better the moment Cuddy arrived in his bathroom – well, it’s insulting to anyone who’s ever suffered from chronic pain or clinical depression. I was all worked up and THAT was what they gave me? I was sick with disappointment. I don’t know who that man in the bathroom was but it certainly wasn’t the Greg House we’ve come to know and love over the past 6 years. Will I watch next season? Probably – but it’ll be like driving past a wreck. You know you shouldn’t but you can’t help but rubber-neck.

Ok – cleansing breaths. Ranting over. On with this story, in which I like to think Greg House remains in character.

… Second, my reactions to the finale, so if you don’t want spoilers, skip on ahead. HL and LE are brilliant actors and did a great job on this ep. So did the woman, whoever played her. I actually would have loved this episode if it had been a movie, if it had been a stand-alone with characters only from this one, if it hadn’t been a finale of House. If my major complaint against S6 and House in general had been „give us Huddy and ditch Lucas,“ yes, I would have been satisfied. But that wasn’t my major complaint against S6, and they repeated everything that is on my objectionable list of S6 and then added one more at the end, the „from massive, major, several chapter/episode incredible conflicts and problems to we’re good in 60 seconds“ phenomenon. I’ve never bought that. Not in House, not in anything. To have 400 pages of conflict and resolve it abruptly in the final paragraph is not a technique I admire or believe. Life isn’t like that. Yes, okay, this is fiction, but I like it to reflect life, unless an outright parody. I’m as Huddy as they come, but no. I don’t care what ship it is, having a final-few-seconds instaresolution after nothing but conflict that you’ve shown in detail for thousands of times as long as that isn’t believable to me. That’s precisely why Onslaught has had such an extended spin-down; because having spun it up to the level of difficulties that I did, to just abruptly say „and everything was okay now“ in one line does not work. I admired the acting last night. I wish I could have savored the moment. Instead, it felt contrived for the sake of a „let’s surprise them in the last 60 seconds of the finale“ purpose. It also felt like bribery, a band-aid slapped on to try to appease those whose main complaint against S6 was lack of Huddy. Nope, S6 needed more than a band-aid IMHO and needed bandages from a far more extensive kit.

The things I already disliked about S6 were all there, too. To begin with, House and Cuddy even being at that scene totally threw logic, established character, and established medical history out the window purely for the sake of putting them in a situation of psychological stress. Why an administrator no longer actively practicing and a disabled diagnostician should rush to be first-line triage responders at a catastrophe while actively practicing and well-bodied doctors stay behind at PPTH in the ER is absurd. Would not happen. I don’t care how psychologically stressful it made things for more episode angst, it would not happen. The only way the setup in Help Me possibly could have been sold to me is to have somehow had the collapse happen while they both happened to be there on scene before that, so they were already in the right place at the right time through coincidence and dealt with what was happening around them, a la Airborne, a neat episode. Disaster erupting around you while you happened to be there, and you are the best equipped of the limited choices there to assist, works. But for House and Cuddy to leave the hospital and go join the first responders (clear in a different city) instead of helping out at the hospital, where there was much to be helped out with and managed and far more in line with their current skills and abilities? No. Right there, in the first two minutes, the show asked for a suspension of disbelief that was so large that I could not do it. They’ve pushed my willing suspension of disbelief so far this season that it already was hanging by a thread. Right at the beginning of Help Me, it snapped, and from that point, a good part of me was watching with a giant „Oh, come on!“ hanging in a thought balloon over my head. I didn’t want to watch it like that. I was admiring the acting and would have loved to enjoy the episode, but that first hurdle was too far to jump for me, not after they’ve pushed that exact point of conveniently disregarding their own facts throughout S6. That, not lack of Huddy, is probably the leading complaint against this season for me.

On they went down the line. Cuddy being inconsistent? Check. Immature schoolgirlishness? Check. Must admit, LE sold it in this episode, but having her immediately think that House’s wanting the woman to keep her leg was to „get back at me“ was, as House called it, narcissism. Surely a doctor in general and House in specific had plenty of other reasons to try to avoid an amputation for a patient unless there were no other options left. Her knee-jerk „it must be about me“ reaction was straight out of junior high. House doing things he could not have physically done? Check. At least they made him hurt for it at the end, but he couldn’t have done it. Period. Not based on the facts they had created from the beginning of the canon. Past details altered? Check. Unprofessionalism to a ludicrous extent, in this case doctors yet again having personal conversations while treating patients? Check. (Wilson and House discussing Luddy on the cell phone while one was actively in the ER working and another was actively at the disaster site working was yet another toss professionalism for psychological intrigue moment. Uh uh.)

On the positive side, there wasn’t the usual overfocus on Thirteen screen time. And Foreman’s scene at the end was probably my favorite for the series for him. I don’t even like him, but OE totally sold that moment. Well done. I’m glad House didn’t take the Vicodin (although since at least 90% of his pain, as they have presented throughout S6, is psychological and due to lack of Cuddy, I’m sure he felt much, much better just as soon as they kissed. Practically not hurting at all. Insert the sarcasm icon here. Who knows, from their S6 POV, maybe if she’d just kissed him instead of trying to treat him medically back in Three Stories, he might have never required surgery at all.). I’m glad he got a few seconds of happiness, even if happiness that felt contrived. I’m glad my last shot of HL’s wonderful acting on this show let him be happy for once after all his amazing angst skills on display.

Farewell, House. I will not be back for S7. I love Huddy, but you can’t fix it with a 2-minute Huddy band-aid when it wasn’t Huddy or any other ship that was the main thing broken about it.
