If you have been following my blog, you should know by now that I’m a big House fan to the point that I feel like the whole cast is family.  And I will miss anyone who leaves the show.  When Dr. Cameron left House’s team, I was so disappointed I almost cried.  I’m a crybaby.  But Dr. Cameron came back and it was all good.

At the beginning of Season 5, Dr. Wilson decided to stay away from House and turned in his resignation letter.  I was still hopeful that House would be able to convince him to stay.  And tonight, he did come back!  Happy family again, I suppose .

I began to love Tuesdays when the TV show, House was moved to Tuesdays.  House is my most favorite show.  The script is brilliant and Hugh Laurie is perfect for the part.

But recently, I am given another reason to love Tuesdays… Fringe.

From J.J. Abrams (“Lost”), Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, the team behind “Star Trek,” “Mission: Impossible III” and “Alias,” comes a new series that will thrill, terrify and explore the blurring line between the possible and the impossible.

February 17, 2009 signifies one more step to the digital world.  On this day, all full-power TV stations in the US will no longer be broadcasting in analog.  Everything will be in digital broadcasting.

At midnight on February 17, 2009, all full-power television stations in the United States will stop broadcasting in analog and switch to 100% digital broadcasting. Digital broadcasting promises to provide a clearer picture and more programming options and will free up airwaves for use by emergency responders.

So does that mean I have to throw my old TVs and buy new digital ones?  Not necessarily.  The government has implemented the TV Converter Box Coupon Program which allows households to order a maximum of two coupons to use towards buying a TV converter box.  This converter box allows your analog TV to receive digital transmission.  Each coupon is worth $40.  Click here for more information and to order your coupons.  Hurry coz coupons are limited.

Oprah is doing an episode today at 4pm EST about fantasy weddings PLUS her new favorite thing.

I saw a rerun of House – the episode “Who’s Your Daddy.”  Ya, I also watch reruns .

My favorite part was when House called in a young doctor exhibiting all the qualities of the possible sperm donors Cuddy chose.  The young doctor was a little bit on the ‘nerdy’ side.  Fine… more on the ‘nerdy’ side then.  He was very smart, but during the so-called interview House arranged, he was very nervous and babbling.  Cuddy comes in, met the guy, was not impressed and realized what House was trying to prove.

House: “Genes matter. Who you are matters. Find somebody you trust.”
Cuddy: “Somebody like you?”
House: “Somebody you like.”

So true.  Someone may really look good on paper and are as ideal in person, however I believe that the chemistry between two people and a bit of attraction matters more.

I know Cuddy won’t live with the “daddy,” but with her future child, she will.  Yes, she will definitely love her child regardless.  But I believe that part of the reason why we instinctively mate with the person we have that “connection” with or we’re attracted to, is to have the child we would want to have.

Three medical drama premieres that I watched this Fall: ER, Grey’s Anatomy, and House.

House
What an amazing script with a touch of intrigue and not that kind that makes you wonder whether McThinksHesAllThat or McStupidVet would get the girl.  House is not your typical protagonist.  He’s sarcastic, frank, insensitive, egotistic, persistent, inquisitive… brilliant.

Grey’s Anatomy
It’s a compelling drama… in a way that many of us can easily relate to the characters.  Though for me, the show is caught up on too much petty drama.  Does this show even have anything to do with medicine at all?  Ummm… not so much.  It’s a primetime soap opera.

ER
ER is now in its 13th season for a reason.  It’s good TV.  It just has the right amount of blood and tears.

[photopress:060822rd02.jpg,thumb,alignright]Sci Fi Channel has decided not to order more episodes of Stargate SG-1 after the 10th season that is currently airing.  Stargate SG-1 is the longest-running science fiction series on US television to date.

[photopress:060822rd04.jpg,thumb,alignleft]I loved Stargate SG-1.  And having a huge crush on Richard Dean Anderson (MacGyver) certainly helped.  He did leave the show last season, and it broke my heart.  When I heard that Stargate SG-1 is going off the air (at least on Sci Fi Channel), I was saddened, but not as much as when Colonel O’Neill (Anderson) left.
