Is House finally going crazy? Or is the show just replacing one loss with a deeper look into House himself. The show predictably has two running story lines, but unlike in previous seasons. House really is taking front and center over the patient. Which is both good and bad. Good in that it’s interesting to see inside of House’s head. Bad in that part of the mystery of House is gone and so is the subtle character hints that would be brought up during any number of episodes. This episode is interesting because House’s imagination is in overdrive due to Cutner’s death, and well House is throwing a bachelor party for Chase. The episode is full of conflict but little resolution, leaving me wondering if there really is much left to House M.D. it’s self. I’m still a fan but the luster of the show is dying ever so slowly. As for the episode it’s self, Cutthroat Bitch is an interesting edition, but an unnecessary one, and the whole episode just sort of move along with little regard to the patient. And despite having serious reservations about the episode I can’t help but like it. I don’t know why but it was interesting enough to keep me entertained, though mostly because I found the patient fascinating. I’d give this episode a solid 8 out of 10, can’t really tell you why other then something about it managed to hold my interesting for just long enough.

House losing his Mojo? Cameron wants back on the team? After losing a team member House takes on a case of an environmental activist, but only because Cameron  insists he take the case. Cameron is doing her usual of avoiding what’s plaguing her. Dr. Wilson is up to something, and the patient keeps getting sicker with all the signs of cancer but it isn’t cancer. Oh and the patients marriage is crap, because he cares to little about his wife and child. That doesn’t mean he’s a bad husband, he certainly tries to be a good husband. Which of course is what causes him to get sick in the first place. Overall it’s an interesting episode, again not the most memorable episode except for the ending, which was freaky and will certainly lead to interesting things. I’d give the episode a 7 out of 10, it’s a good solid character driven episode. Just wish the case was a little bit more interesting.
