blairprovence Soooo it begins - the duckling auditions. I've never been a fan of reality shows, and only watched Survivor when forced, but there's something a little more palatable about it when it's actors instead of real people. But then, the actors are enjoying their own version of survivor, so it's still a little bit uncomfortable. But Hugh Laurie is doing a bang-up job, as usual.
PLUSES
Liked Old Guy
Liked Kumar
Liked seeing Chase back, and it affecting House so much
MINUSES
Cuddy was too ineffective. Although I like seeing her, it would be better for her to just not have scenes as opposed to having repeated scenes where House cuts her off at the knees. It is getting very hard to take her seriously as The Boss.
Too little Wilson. Too much psychoanalyzing Wilson.
13 - too similar to Cameron - and oddly, Ali.
I didn't like bossy chick, either, which means I'm not voting for any girl ducklings, which makes me feel bad. So 13 can stay, but she has to crush on Wilson. Or appreciate Chase more than Cameron.
It seems to me like the producers are trying to come up with a show formula that gives Hugh Laurie more time off, in hopes of persuading him to sign on for more years. I'm all for that. But the new format seems to guarantee less Wilson, and I'm NOT for that!
I give it a B.
