"Have you never seen Dawson's Creek?"

adelineHouse was kind of weird this week.
I'll get it out of the way first and not come back to it: the writing was less than stellar and much of the dialog felt extremely forced. Bleh.
That said; House and Cuddy = excellent. :D
I really liked Cameron's storyline. Nice change, that. It seems odd that Wilson wouldn't even make an appearance, given the guy's CANCER and all, but, whatever. This is Cameron, after all. I'm glad she eventually acceded the guy's request, and I also appreciated that her husband was brought up again, I thought it fit nicely with the general theme of the episode.
Chase cracked me up when he advised House to keep the rape victim asleep.
The clinic = mad fun times! I hope we get to see a lot more of that. ♥
I thought it cute that Wilson would seek House out in the jogging park, in the middle of the day, and not even on a House-finding-and-dragging-back-to-work mission. Hee. Was there lecturing? I forget. I was distracted by RSL's cuteness. SO SUE ME.
The big reveal of House's abuse by his father? I'd figured as much. That's what reading spoilers will do for you. Nice bit of trivia with his Dutch grandmother, though. And hoping people will break legs, LMAO. "I'm evil." Heh. Yeah, you are.
Foosball game! :D
I'll watch it all again tonight, because for now, the main storyline and how much it sucked makes this a crappy episode with bright highlights here and there. :\
Now, I have some Heroes speculation! Nothing huge, just a screencap-supported assumption about Claire's biological father, that may or may not all be chalked up to sloppy continuity.
The promo for Distractions shows a man's forearm and hand, while the voice-over teases on Claire's father's identity. It may thus be safely assumed that the body parts shown belong to him. See them below:
Because of the pricey-looking watch and ring, it might be easily inferred the hand belongs to Nathan. So, of course, obsessive fan that I am, I had to go and have a look at Nathan's watch. Turns out, it's not the same as above! Lookit:
(n'aaaaawww, shouldn't he smile all the time?)
Of course, he could have several watches. So let's have a look at the ring! I have no screen cap here, but take my word for it, Nathan's wedding band is nowhere near as wide as Claire's alleged bio dad's is. He does have a bigger piece of jewelry, but he wears it on the other hand. (I wasn't kidding about the obsession.)
Temporary conclusion: Nathan Petrelli is not the man shown to be Claire's biological father in the preview for Distractions. The mystery stays whole.
Hee. Fandom is so fun.
- HRG:
(no match)
(no match)
- Matt Parkman:
(MATCH! O_O)
(Eeeeh...)
- Chandra Suresh:
(wtf, rite?)
- Ted the radioactive guy: wears neither ring nor watch.
- Sylar: ditto

I seriously don't want her dad to be Nathan tho. That just screws up the Paire. Not to mention Nathan would have been about 22-ish? Wouldn't he either be in the army or in college somewhere other than Texas at the time Claire was born?

Date: 2007-02-02 04:11 pm (UTC)I haven't really tried to figure out Nathan's canon age, but yes, he'd have to have been pretty young abd besides, so many people are thinking it's gonna be him, it wouldn't be so much of a 'shocking revelation'.
no subject
Date: 2007-02-02 06:00 pm (UTC)Add that to the fact that 80% of viewers expect it to be Nathan and it makes me think that they're def being deliberately misleading and that it's not going to be him.
At least, that's what I'm hoping!

Date: 2007-02-04 11:39 am (UTC)I wouldn't really mind for him to be Nathan as much as I would the fact that it was OMG SO OBVIOUS! And much of fandom is going to be so smug and post "I told you so"s all over the place. Annoying, much?
Either way, I subscribe to your logic wholeheartedly. It wouldn't make much sense by now.
