God Vs. House
"Everyone Lies".
House is the famously acclaimed t.v. drama on every Tuesday night at 8. Well not every night, every two or three weeks FOX opts not to show it because they think watching hillbilly bob sing My Heart Will Go On is more important. If I wanted Karaeoke, I'd go to a bar and watch billy bob do it drunk, alot less drama and I wouldn't miss my show.

Now onto the show that I intended to review.
Dr. Gregory House, (played by grammy nominee and Golden Globe winner, Hugh Laurie.)

House is a complex creature that until this episode keeps me still asking, who is this guy? He has the the undeniable killer wit. He makes you laugh even in the most surreal of times during the show. Even when Foreman was dying, he still kept me on my toes and open for more and more witty humor. He helps make the pain go away.
Yet, he finds it easier to care for the patient by not caring.
House however has a sub charm that gets at you from out of nowhere. You almost feel guilty for not figuring out the diagnosis yourself. He keeps you thinking. He made it apparent during season one during a conversation between him and Dr. Wilson.
Wilson tells him he understands the demeaning wit, but does he really mean to send Foreman home feeling like crap? House replies, feel bad? Yes, go home? No.Or something like that. Its the point that counts. He keeps you on his toes.
But everyone knows already about his unnerving wit and cunning sense of humor. Lets talk about the other doctors of Princeton Plainsboro teaching hospital.

Dr. Eric Foreman (Played by; Omar Epps.)

Foreman ("the affirmative action hire")tries hard to overcome House. He has an undying affection for those who have served in the "hood". He tries to keep his professionalism ahead in front of him before showing his past. He makes it look easy for anyone whose never had a chance to make it. He cures patients that are interesting to him. He takes special concern in a few episodes that I think the producers do on purpose. He makes it apparent in the episode including the black senator, a black democrat who is diagnosed with HIV. He is intrigued by an episode where a black death row inmate is dying from poisoning. Foreman learns of an underlying condition from childhood in the patient and agrees to testify on the inmates behalf that he truly is sick and saves the patients life... TWICE!
Foreman also becomes involved in a case where John Jacob Giles a prominent Jazz artist is dying from a paralysis. While Foreman tries to mutiny
