Ask Ausiello about 'House'

Tagged: ,

House_lWhat better way to celebrate the first original episode of House in two weeks (tonight @ 8 pm/EST) than with a special edition of AA that focuses solely on Dr. Grumpy and his band of merry misfits? There is no better way, silly!

Question: Would you please do a House-only AA? Look, I’ll even get it started: What is this "important decision" that House "struggles" with? House isn’t crazy… so what would cause him, (if anything), to go into a psych ward? –Kate
Ausiello:
House-only AA? What a brilliant idea! And just to clarify, I never said House was for sure checking into a cuckoo’s nest. I was merely making an assumption after connecting a few dots. But if it turns out that he is headed to the funny farm, I would imagine an extreme case of insomnia might be behind it. And I do mean extreme: Poor guy hasn’t slept a wink since Kutner died.

Question: I haven’t been able to find any spoilers for tonight’s House. Do you know anything? –Sari
Ausiello:
I know the ep focuses on Chase’s bachelor party, but Fox’s promo
already gave that away. What the promo didn’t reveal, however, is the
identity of the  person throwing the little shindig: House himself!

Question: Anything worth sharing on House? –Tim
Ausiello:
A major character will suffer a life-threatening medical
emergency tonight. Hint: A clue about what triggers it can be found in
last week’s 30 Rock. Guesses? Head to the comments!   

Question: Is Chase’s bachelor party part of House’s hallucination? –Samantha
Ausiello:
No. House also doesn’t imagine ordering Foreman and Thirteen
to go to a strip club to pick out the evening’s, ahem, entertainment.

Question: I’m a little shocked to see Wilson at Chase’s bachelor party in this promo. How’d that happen? –Craig
Ausiello:
Let’s just say House arranged it so that he had no other choice.

    Strawberries? (or, I’d guess, some type of food alergy.)
    So, do you think Chase and Cameron actually end up married? I’m hoping no. I like Chase and I like Cameron, but what I love is Chase drama. ;)

  • Courtney

    Yes, it has to be allergies. And I’m with you…I hope they don’t actually get married either.

  • Eric P.

    Is the cause “Night Cheese”??

  • Adam

    Guess idea for a HOUSE edition of A.A. But I was expecting more house-goodness. Ah well, it’s still good. By the way, there’s no mention of “Huddy”, meaning maybe the baby in blind-item isn’t theirs.

    You rock Michael! Thanks for taking me up on the suggestion! :) And, of course, for the scoop!

  • Kate

    I almost forgot:
    @Eric P.:
    lol :)
    @Mary & Courtney:
    It’s gotta be an allergy, right? (Totally in agreement with no Cameron/Chase wedding, btw)

  • Sandra

    I’m curious what tonight’s episode will have in store for us… I hope it’s not Huddy sex and subsequently also not “Yeah, the blind item was about House”, because that might not be good for my poor stomach. It’s allergic to forced relationship crap ;P For sure: I can’t wait to see Amber again!
    And I agree with Mary, I like both Cameron and Chase very much, but not as a couple, they are much more fun as individuals and especially in their original function as doctors (House being a medical drama… I guess you’ll get what I mean – less relationships stuff, more medicine, pretty please?).

  • Kate

    I’m so mad that I waited two years to get Cameron and Chase back on the show and all I get is this stupid engagement storyline.
    Love Cameron, growing to love Chase but I hate them as a couple. Bring back the old show, when it was still about medicine and not a bad soap opera. And bring Cameron and Chase back as doctors.
    Why does Thirteen have to be in everyone else’s storyline? Get rid of her already. Let her die from the allergy.

  • Alesha

    Count me in as another one who doesn’t want a wedding between Cameron and Chase.

  • Vittoria

    I hope that huddy-sex will take to the disaster LE told us months ago, chameron wedding would also end in a disaster (as JM&JS hoped some time ago) and so we maybe can have our show back…
    a little-little HCam romance and a right amount of medical stuff…
    just like in S1-2-3.

    ITA, that would be like a dream come true!

  • Pat

    No wedding for Cameron and Chase.
    Bring them back to the show as doctors.

  • Courtney

    @Kate and Mary…
    I’m in complete agreement. I love Chase and Cameron as individuals. The show functioned much better that way. now I feel like Chase has lost too much of what made him unique while struggling to convince Cameron to love him. I feel like the relationship made him a weaker character.
    I loved the dynamic of the old team, and even if we can’t have them all back together, could we at least have a show about characters again, not couples? I don’t mind hinting at romance and showing clips every now and then, but I miss when Cameron was Cameron and Chase was Chase and Foreman was Foreman and not part of Foreteen. They can hint at love all they want, it makes for a more interesting show, but when they focus solely on couples, I feel like the show loses the strong personalities we all loved from the very beginning of Season One.
    Okay, I’m done ranting ;)

  • Courtney

    @Vittoria and Amy…I agree! That would be perfect.
    I don’t even mind Huddy so much, though I prefer Hameron. But, that aside, I felt terrible for Huddy in the last episode, becuase I feel like she’s been reduced to this whiny, desperate character pining for House…but why? She’s Cuddy. She’s the boss! She was never portrayed as this weak before…I felt bad for her character, because I’ve always respected and enjoyed Cuddy and seeing her with some pathetic lines made me cringe.
    Less romance is the only solution I can see, because Cuddy deserve better than being reduced to such a demeaning role.
    And yes, I like that Cameron’s role in her relationship has made her into a stronger character, but I feel bad for Chase, because I feel his character getting weaker.
    Hold off on romance-centric episodes, and let our character regain some dignity.

    I hope Chameron do get married. Unselfishly speaking, it’d be great for the Chamerons, who’ve waited quite awhile for this moment. But, I don’t really want to see it, unless there’s a montage over something sad, like House being checked into the facility.
    I like Thirteen and think now that her time has been apportioned more appropriately I’m even more fond of her.
    Most of the people I’ve seen post on House boards don’t want to revisit Hameron-and many were frankly relieved they didn’t go that ridiculous route in ‘Saviors’. Just gave many of us more faith in the House writers.
    I abhor soaps and this show is not one.
    The episode sounds like it’s going to be fun. The most interesting thing here though is about the major character suffering a life-threatening medical emergency. I’m sure it’s House, but I’m still interested to see it play out.
