House is one of those shows I don't watch in full screen. I play it in small form and play solitaire in a window next to it. I get very little out of each episode, excepting specials like Broken or season finales, which are always Very Special Episodes in which hallucinations abound. Basically any episode that lets Hugh Laurie be furious/insane/depressed is a quality hourlong in my book.
Although Private Lives was none of the above, there were some interesting (what's a tamer word for "interesting"? "Different"?) character interactions. House with Photoshop is proved to be a winning combination. Wilson and antlers as well. Chase and Thirteen was definitely different. Have they ever had a conversation alone before now? I understand why he sought her advice (she is the only female on the team) and I thought her response to his concerns was valid and relatively helpful. The pair was different, but not a bad thing. Jennifer Morrison is returning to the show (as a regular I'm not sure) so Chase will have her to interact with, finally. What's with medical shows this year marrying two characters at the end of last season and breaking them up early in the next? Grey's Anatomy I can understand because Katherine Heigl had to leave, but House has no excuse. It was a lame way to take that plot. You can unbutton Lisa Edelstein's shirt as much as you want - there's still not enough estrogen on this show.
