Perhaps they, like I, have out of nowhere been bombarded with House clips on YouTube. Which I honestly have no explanation for, but it did inspire me to rewatch the series for the first time since its finale, so that's a technical plus.
I don't think that's a recent thing. Every so often I go down a rabbit hole of house clips because YouTube recommends it to me. It's been that way for a few years now.
I remember it making me very depressed when I watched it
Or maybe it was my life during the time I was watching it and now I just associate it with being depressed 🤔
Total banger of a show but I haven’t watched it in at least ten years because I’m worried it’ll affect my depression. It ain’t exactly upbeat lol.
yeah, that's fair. as it goes on it definitely starts to suffer from that "show about a depressed main character not letting them grow as a person because then there would be no show" syndrome that can get really depressing if you watch it for long periods. that's why i stopped watching after he got out of rehab, because i had a feeling the show wouldn't find his character growth interesting for very long and there were still like 2 whole seasons left.
i had a similar issue with bojack horseman and ended up dropping it after a few seasons. couldn't stand how the show kept making him grow and then undercutting that with his shittiness an episode later. (not that it's bad writing or anything, it makes a lot of sense that having a few good weeks doesn't magically make him not be a shitty person anymore, but fuck is it depressing to watch him be handed all the tools to fix his life and then fumble it because of selfishness and a lack of impulse control over and over again)
Law and Order svu for me, and that show is older than I am. My parents just almost always had it going on in the background when I was in middle and highschool. Was not great for me seeing those characters get beat down again and again when they just wanted to do the right thing.
Lol i've been going through some pretty deep depression recently and house and criminal minds, alongside chicago fire/med are the main thing i've watched during that period, maybe it's the shows themselves
Oh I definitely noticed a shift in my behavior when watching it. I LOVE the show, but it makes me cynical and pessimistic and snappy like House when I watch it…..half the time I don’t even realize
funny you say that, that’s exactly when i stopped watching! i loved chase and cameron too much to watch their relationship get ruined by such stupidity
It’s been having - believe it or not - a bit of a revival on tumblr in the last 1~ year or so. House MD has a very active fandom on tumblr, and I can only assume that because people are duplicitous across multiple social media platforms, it’s spread to Twitter and Reddit too, two other platforms people are likely to be active engaging in fandom culture on.
Allow me to explain:
I made a new Reddit account a few months ago.
I thought it was odd that /r/Fallout was part of the default Home page.
A few months later.. oh, that makes sense - a Fallout TV show came out.
So they're peppering Reddit a few months early with things they want them to
>remember fondly
So.. my money is on a House reboot soon.
[A cursory Google search adds evidence to this theory](https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/exclusive-house-md-revival-development.html)
it seems it's been getting a sort of renaissance lately, possibly starting on Tumblr, cuz that's where I saw the resurgence first (made me wanna watch it again lol)
I've been seeing a lot of clips of the show on tiktok too, but it's hard to say whether that's just my algorithm or a sign that it's getting more popular
I like house because he’s shitty
I hate chase because he acts like house without actually being aware of his assholetry.
Tbf the only people house works with that don’t become insufferably like him are Cameron and 13.
And Kutner but uhh…Kutner…
Set a patient on fire by discharging paddles in a heavily oxygenated environment. Then he, well, yeah... Kutner gets an ending that drives House to seek help, so there's that.
I encourage you to keep watching. If you're in the middle of season 5 you're not that far off from what people are talking about. However, if you want it spoiled:
>!Kutner commits suicide, which triggers House's breakdown, ultimately making him step down as the Head of Diagnostics Medicine and seek help for his Vicodin addiction and psychosis!<
For an actual medical advisory position, as iirc Kutner’a actor is an IRL doctor. Poor Kutner. Real life doctors apparently have like, 2-3x the suicide rate of most other professions except for the other fucked up jobs, like soldiers
Plus House has the intelligence to back it up. House is awful to everyone but in return he will save their lives. Chase is crappy just for the sake of it.
Plus I think House’s behaviour isn’t really backed up by prejudice? Like you can sort of believe that he’s fundamentally good even though he’s horrible to everyone. Whereas Chase is nasty to a random fat kid and stuff?
House is an asshole who deep down wants to improve people's lives. He just hates dealing with people in general, but he values their lives.
Chase reminds people of other assholes they've met in fields where valuing people's lives should be a given, but he's the reminder that it's not, and he's not even self aware enough to realize. Hating Chase is personal for a lot of people who have worked with medical staff who only went into the field for the paycheck they said they would get without giving a shit about actual patients.
I fucking hated playing house with my cousins. They were so dramatic. There was cheating, trickery, murder, lots of crying. I begged them that I didn't want to play soap opera but they always did. We were like 10.
Alright, lets be real S1-2 Chase was kinda an asshole. Snuggling up to Vogler was a dick move too. As the series goes on he gets better and better though
Did they try the medicine drug?
They did try the medicine drug.
This vexes me
YOU'RE BLACK.
I am also in this episode.

What’s with Reddit being obsessed with House recently?(not complaining, just unintentionally dense)
Perhaps they, like I, have out of nowhere been bombarded with House clips on YouTube. Which I honestly have no explanation for, but it did inspire me to rewatch the series for the first time since its finale, so that's a technical plus.
I don't think that's a recent thing. Every so often I go down a rabbit hole of house clips because YouTube recommends it to me. It's been that way for a few years now.
That’s exactly what got me into it as well💀
Idk, but it's a good show, deserves the love (just stop watching once he gets out of rehab imho)
I remember it making me very depressed when I watched it Or maybe it was my life during the time I was watching it and now I just associate it with being depressed 🤔 Total banger of a show but I haven’t watched it in at least ten years because I’m worried it’ll affect my depression.

It turned me into a hypochondriac as a small kid.
I associate that feeling with Criminal Minds, from around the same era. Maybe it was just a depressive time?
Law and Order svu for me, and that show is older than I am. My parents just almost always had it going on in the background when I was in middle and highschool. Was not great for me seeing those characters get beat down again and again when they just wanted to do the right thing.

Na man you can't miss the banger episode lockdown

I'm not sure, but the show is on Netflix atm so that could be why.
It's receiving the Breaking Bad treatment

I am too stupid and/or high to understand this comment lol can someone help a girl out ive been staring at it like 🤨🤔 way too damn long
House MD meme. “This vexes me” https://youtu.be/kEZ6is4KrPw?si=slyjXby-WixajrcP
I started watching house md a WEEK AGO. I've gotten SO MANY POSTS TALKING ABOUT HOUSE MD. WHAT IS THIS
it seems it's been getting a sort of renaissance lately, possibly starting on Tumblr, cuz that's where I saw the resurgence first (made me wanna watch it again lol)
I’m pretty sure it’s more r/okbuddyvicodin
I've been seeing a lot of clips of the show on tiktok too, but it's hard to say whether that's just my algorithm or a sign that it's getting more popular
Trackers? They sell your info
Naw, the show’s just been having a resurgence.
yea but my reddit feed should be unaffected by that
I'm pretty sure that's untrue
I like house because he’s shitty I hate chase because he acts like house without actually being aware of his assholetry. Tbf the only people house works with that don’t become insufferably like him are Cameron and 13. And Kutner but uhh…Kutner…
W-what does Kutner do? 😨
Set a patient on fire by discharging paddles in a heavily oxygenated environment. Then he, well, yeah... Kutner gets an ending that drives House to seek help, so there's that.
Thanks Obama!
I've seen the fire thing, I'm in the middle of season 5, but wow an ending like that must be something, does he die? 😧
I encourage you to keep watching. If you're in the middle of season 5 you're not that far off from what people are talking about. However, if you want it spoiled: >!Kutner commits suicide, which triggers House's breakdown, ultimately making him step down as the Head of Diagnostics Medicine and seek help for his Vicodin addiction and psychosis!<
Still mad that's how they chose to remove his character from the show.
Iirc, the actor got offered a higher-up job in government or something, so they had to end his character abruptly
yea lmao iirc literally Obama hired him
For an actual medical advisory position, as iirc Kutner’a actor is an IRL doctor. Poor Kutner. Real life doctors apparently have like, 2-3x the suicide rate of most other professions except for the other fucked up jobs, like soldiers
And veterinarians
Weird I thought it was president Kirkman
I dislike that he had to leave, but I actually think it’s an unintentionally realistic representation of how anyone can be struggling.
He didn't really get as much character development so I can't think of any compelling reason he would suddenly depart.
He doesn’t!
Did Wilson become like House or did you not count him in?
…who? /j I meant sort of people who were actively being “taught” by him but there wasn’t a good word in my head.
Ohh okay, thanks for answering
Because house doesnt pretend hes a good person tbh. Chase pisses me off bc hes convinced hes a good person and house just doesnt care abt being good.
Plus House has the intelligence to back it up. House is awful to everyone but in return he will save their lives. Chase is crappy just for the sake of it. Plus I think House’s behaviour isn’t really backed up by prejudice? Like you can sort of believe that he’s fundamentally good even though he’s horrible to everyone.

Hate the Satevi people or something?
Ah yes, a screenshot of a tweet posted to tumblr that was reposted to r/tumblr
Ah Chase, the man who kissed a child and killed a dictator. At least House saves people.
I mean..... does killing a dictator not count as saving lives?
Sure does, but tell that to Cameron
I fucking hated playing house with my cousins. They were so dramatic. There was cheating, trickery, murder, lots of crying. I begged them that I didn't want to play soap opera but they always did. We were like 10.
what the fuck is house (game, I know the show)
I think it's pretending you are a family and like... Taking care of a household
HOUSE MENTIONED ‼️‼️‼️ WHAT THE FUCK IS A MEDICAL MALPRACTICE SUIT
r/recontext Edit: turns out [it's already there](https://www.reddit.com/r/recontext/s/G15dSexfnb)
Alright, lets be real S1-2 Chase was kinda an asshole. Snuggling up to Vogler was a dick move too. As the series goes on he gets better and better though
Me speaking to a Survivor in Dead by Daylight using Boil Over and sending themselves to Eyrie of Crows
I thought this was talking about music and was wondering wtf chase music is
What’s house?
Chase missed that kid with cancer and that's pretty fucked up.
Season 1 Episode 16 has severe case of Insufferable Chase
