I know we have a thread on the show, but I think the character of House deserves a seperate thread where we can all eulogise over him, because let's be honest, he's that good. He's so thought provoking it;s untrue, and some of the quotes he has come out with are brilliant. The writer's of the show deserve huge praise for the way they have developed his character aswell. And huge credit must go to Hugh Laurie for portraying him the way he does. I can't imagine any other actor doing as good a job as he has done.

"There is not a thin line between love and hate. There is --- in fact --- a Great Wall of China with armed sentries posted every 20 feet between love and hate."

"No, if you talk to God you're religious. If God talks to you, you're psychotic."

"Sex...could kill you. Do you know what the human body goes through when you have sex? Pupils dilate, arteries constrict, core temperature rises, heart races, blood pressure skyrockets, respiration becomes rapid and shallow, the brain fires bursts of electrical impulses from nowhere to nowhere and secretions spit out of every gland, and the muscles tense and spasm like you're lifting three times your body weight. It's violent, it's ugly, and it's messy, and if God hadn't made it unbelievably fun...the human race would have died out eons ago. Men are lucky they can only have one orgasm. You know women can have an hour long orgasm?"

He's fast becoming my favourite TV character.
 
I got it from a site that side Dr. House qoutes.

I'm going to destroy it for making me look silly. But it's a good quote nonetheless so I think it can stay.

I agree

I like the fact that they haven't done that usual wanky American thing of making the character evolve hugely as the show progresses, so they can put a nice little full stop at the end.

Not that the character himself should get any credit for that mind.
 
He's great and I love the fact that they've also made him a talented musician. The character is so well rounded that now that I think about it he is not only the reason the show is successful but he's also the reason people even bother watching it.
 
Second best character on TV currently, only slightly behind Ari Gold.
 
Brilliant actor, diabolic show from a professional standpoint. He is brilliant though, and seems like a now it all, but I think I have watched parts of about 5 episodes, and in one a patient had a PDA with all these odd symptoms(it might have been an Aortic Aneurysm I dont remember), but after brain surgery etc etc, they finally decided that they should listen to his heart with a stesthecope hahahahahhaha

You do know the implications of that quote, don't you?
Unless you maintain that Jack Bauer is not actually a ficticious character, in which case I would be inclined to agree, wholeheartedly.
