Although after having watched this series a few times and ascertaining that I personally do not care for it I am open to discussion and possible reconsideration on my view of this program.
Right off the top, I do not care for the actor that plays "house" it may be that I have an aversion to british actors that pretend to be american and try to speak american english, or it may just be that I do not care for the persona that he plays in the series, an incurable, commie, liberal, militantly sarcastic asshat. all in all, not impressed
Thoughts?

I didn't jump onto the House bandwagon until Season 3. I happened to stumble across an episode one day and now I'm hooked. I don't seem to have the same issues with the lead actor and in my opinion the writing and acting of the show is excellent.

That's interesting. I would have to say that coming into this particular series at this particular time might not be the easiest way to do it. House is not an easy character to like at the best of times, and right now half his supporting cast (which usually offsets his personality) isn't really in the show. Having said that, I am a fan of the show, and I think Hugh Laurie does a fine job with his character. My only complaints are sometimes the recovery times of his patients seem way too rapid, and when we saw a piece of his Gibson Flying V that supposedly got smashed, it was clearly a Stratocaster bridge we saw, which looks nothing like a V bridge. I know I only noticed that because I play guitar, but it got me to thinking that if I were a doctor, I'd probably be seeing tons of medical mistakes like that during each episode.

although the drama would be compromised, isnt it kind of annoying that they always go through like seven different diagnoses before hitting the right one just in time? and it seems like every teaser ends with someone having rectal bleeding...nothing says suspense like rectal bleeding. after having said all that, i really like this show
