House First Look: Chase Has a Death Wish

I like the dark turn Chase’s character has taken and it’s more interesting to see it played out this way than to watch his self-destructive series of meaningless flings (what happened to his brief dabble with a drinking problem?) but I don’t think he should get into a relationship. He has more atonement to do before he can live with himself let alone other people.

and if he has to date a co-worker, surprise us, make it Park.

A comment on the content of the clip: My father was hit with a disabling injury when he was 40 and spent a long time in the hospital. He committed suicide shortly after his release (3 days after my fifth birthday), apparently because he didn’t want to be a burden to the family. When happened in the following years – especially my mother’s manic and misguided rush to get married again – resulted in one disaster after another: violence, alcoholism, police, etc. I was largely left on my own and ran away at 15 and was taken in by a loving couple.

About “House” – I haven’t missed it one bit since it went on break and doubt if I shall resume watching it. It’s done everything it can and is now largely an embarrassment. It needs to end, and soon (ditto “Dexter”).

Of course Chase and Adams should get together! They are SUPER HOT! Its funny that people say it would be too predictable when the truth is that it would be realistic! Hot people get together with other hot people and not with nerds, thats a fact!

Can’t wait to see Jesse Spencer in “Chase”!!!
I don’t mind Chase and Adams slowly getting closer and maybe together someday

If Chase really has a death wish maybe it will be show not as a suicide attempt but rather as reckless behavior

Jesse Spencer is so amazing! Can’t wait to see everything he is in

“House” is as good now as it ever was. All shows are going to decline in ratings when they’ve been on as long as “House” has and there’s always going to be viewers who have grown attached to characters and are going to hate where their stories are taken.

The fact is though, “House” still has compelling storylines, there are viewers who enjoyed the Huddy trip and there are millions of viewers who continue to watch the show regularly.

If you don’t like the show anymore, that’s your right and your opinion. But why continue to watch? Why click on this article and watch the clip simply to come into the comments and complain? Frankly, it’s really annoying to those of us who still enjoy the show.

I miss the old days when someone could suddenly shoot house or when foreman injected cameron a disease just to force her to try harder into finding a cure. I think there should be a flashback episode finding the team without house and explaining how foreman got the new dean position.

Chase seems depressed in that clip. If that’s correct, then I wonder if it’s because of his early life experiences, divorce and Dibala or whether something more recent has set it off. In response to crocme, above, some of us do care about Chase’s character. He’s been on the show since the first season and he’s portrayed in a really interesting way by Jesse Spencer. House is number one, but it’s good to have solid supporting actors unless you want House to sit in a room on his own and talk to himself for the whole series.

I love this show but if it keeps in this direction it will end up like Greys Anatomy an that shows sucks terribly.

Don’t put Chase and Adams together or Chase and Park together. Put Chase and Taub together. That would be the ultimate twist.

- I am all alone, all alone in the world, but I LIKED House and Cuddy together. I always knew it would be only a matter of time till they hooked up. The ‘breakup’ was done very badly.

- I have always adored the young, beautiful Chase with his beautiful long blond emo hair. Pity what’s become of his looks last year and this, he looks pathetic and ugly. But, as Foreman said in one episode, (paraphrasing): does a patient want to see what appears to be an underwear model as his or her doctor? lol, he has a point and our pretty young Chase must harden and grow up.

- One of the most haunting moments of TV for me, ever, was the one where ex-seminarian Chase prayed over the dead baby before the autopsy. That scene made me cry and still does.

- Park DID invite Chase out for a drink in a previous episode! He accepted, too. I doubt it will go anywhere, but wouldn’t it be hilarious if they DID become a couple? Generic Pretty Girl Doctor would defecate a brick, lol!

- And why does every doctor on every medical show date another doctor (or sometimes nurse) on the same show? Are there no hot pharmacy reps? Are there no hot EMTs, or people who live in the apartment across the hall from them, bar tenders or bar maids, lawyers/cops/circus performers – or even attractive patients? They don’t have to be patients being treated by them – Chase could consult with an orthopedic surgeon and fall for a girl with a bum leg. (Or meet “that one special patient, the one I can’t get out of my mind” … that would be me, lol, he’d find me unforgettable, track me down, and come knocking on my door to see how I was doing.)

Well, I’m sure its the last season. Let’s just watch. Or not. There will always be re-runs.
