There was no thread, right? Anyway, season 4 premieres tonight.

Considering Cameron, Foreman and Chase no longer work directly for House (all three actors will still be on the show, although not in tonight's season premiere), this season could have a more interesting dynamic.

And let's hope nothing resembling Tritter happens.

OMG, what a great episode! I almost wish House didn't have to hire new ducklings just because a lack of the ducklings meant more screentime for Cuddy and Wilson and more interaction between them and House.

House and Wilson's banter tonight was in top form; that kidnapped guitar subplot was HILARIOUS!

Grade: A

I am wondering if the 3 will come back to run that seperate department except when they have to work with House on questions they can't answer.

hilarious episode. I really liked it

Good episode, of course. Kinda anti-climactic the whole team thing since I heard about the casting a while ago.

"Look around you. In 6 weeks, one of you will be gone. Plus 28 more."

Haha that cracked me up.

"DIABOLICAL!"

The end was a bit depressing, but the subplot between Wilson and House was gold and the writing was spot-on, as always. Next week looks to be lots of fun.

It was a great episode I loved the guitar kidnapping.

Very good episode. My bet is on Olivia Wilde and Kal Penn becoming part of the team. Not sure about the third member.

Relatively quiet episode, next week's looks a lot better though.

It was a lot of fun at the beginning, but it lost a lot of its momentum towards the end. And if Kumar joins the cast I will never be able to take the show seriously.

I thought the episode was hilarious.

Meanwhile, Harold (John Cho) joins the cast of 'Til Death tomorrow.

interesting ... very interesting

That was a really, really good episode. Best in a while.

And it was so sad when the dog died! Oh my.

But not sad when the other 2 people died...?

It was a very sad episode overall.

Joe, you know what? Don't talk to me. I haven't said anything at all antagonistic towards you since that last "fight," and if you continue with me, I'll make sure I do everything I can to get you out of here. You were already warned.

You' act like you actually have any power when you don't.

I won't be going anywhere no matter what. How about you leave?

So, being the House/Wilson slasher that I am, that scene with Wilson and House in the hospital room after House zapped himself was... WOO! *swoons*

GREAT episode tonight! Next episode looks great, too... Too bad we have to wait two weeks for it, but at least we're only getting one pre-emption for baseball this year as opposed to the three or four weeks of pre-emption in the past few years.

No House next week!? Damn you baseball squadrons.

Loved the episode. Best of the young season.

Thought Mrs. Toby Zeigler firing Foreman after being right was quite predictable but I did like the brief scenes with Foreman and his own team.

Olivia Wilde is a great addition, I hope they keep her around longterm. She's a better actress and more interesting character than Cameron. The female version of House was pretty funny but I think that act would get tiresome over time.

If I'm not mistaken, Olivia Wilde and one of the new male doctors will be regulars. I couldn't find the link.

I quite like the bitchy one, but yeah I could see her shtick getting tiresome.


And I didn't realize one of the new guys played Teddy in Huff.

Kumar I figure. He stood out. The whole mass assistant tryout thing is like a horror movie where you see all these nobodies that you know are going to get removed and it will be whittled down to star power.

I liked the bitchy girl too. I just don't want them to over use her is all.

I'm guessing it'll be Olivia Wilde (as the Cameron-esque hot-chick figure), Kumar (as the Foreman-esque minority figure), and the bitchy girl (as the Chase-esque sucking-up-to-House figure) being the three.

Im thinking there could be 4.

I think the old guy will stay around.
