'House' is coming to an end. You might say 'but that happened about one and a half year back'. Yes, in the US. But in India, the final season will get over sometime next week.
To be very honest, I stopped watching this show a long time back - despite having a crush on Dr. Chase - because I couldn't stand House any longer. His habit of treating others like a piece of garbage, his insistence on being emotionally detached from everybody and everything, his abnormal behavior that often bordered on being childish, the callous way in which he treated Dr. Cuddy and Dr. Wilson - everything seemed to get on my nerves. The episodes dealt with so many unknown (at least to me!) diseases - thus underscoring the fact that there are so many ways to fall sick, most often all of a sudden - that it started to get scary. We don't like to be reminded of our mortality, do we? It didn't help that most of the times House's team struggled to come up with a proper diagnosis, often subjecting the patient to a battery of tests (Spinal tap and MRI being the common ones!) and an array of treatments.
But I have decided to watch the remaining episodes as the series draws to a close - just to see how the story ends. Thank God at least some things in life have a closure! :-)
