House season ends and I’m trying to hug the television
Been quite a year so far for my TV Shows.
First Sarah Connor comes to a mostly likely end, with rating not supporting a third season. Then Dollhouse seems to stumble after only 12 episodes and concludes with no second series on the horizon.
To make things worse, it is the time of year when shows are coming to their finale as well. Lost Season 5 ends this Wednesday, Greys is also soon to conclude and this morning aired the end of season 5 for House.
Every so often, I hook right into a TV Show. I buy into the universe, the characters and the plot line. I make excuses for poor episodes and give flexibility to story lines that sometimes stretch things too far.
One show that has me mainlined into their world is House, and this morning I watched the season finale. I have written before how this show can punch you in the face with a good old slap of twist and fantastic scripting, and this episode finale was one of those.
Without realising it, the season finale was really the last two episode. I wonder whether they should have been shown back to back, as last weeks episode seemed a little unbelievable, only to be balanced by this weeks episode.
The writers, directors and actors did an amazing job of playing with House and his issues in a way that truly left me feeling sad and hurting for both him and all of his friends. I felt myself leaning towards the television wanting to give Wilson a hug (I love his enduring character) whilst sincerely wishing House all the best.
I know – It’s not real, it’s a TV Show!!!
But it’s House! And as I’ve said before if you DO buy into his universe and care for his surrounding world, then I bet you would be doing the same.
My only concern, as has been for most of my Shows this year, is where can they go from here? I haven’t read anywhere that this is the end of the series for House, and with how the show ends it can’t carry on as it did before. Down to the writers once again
