Question

[constance]

Can anyone tell me why I am up at nearly one in the morning reading Television Without Pity recaps of "House," a show I have never actually watched?

No, I thought not.

I am not caught up yet, but I still have four or five days! Surely I will make it by then!

That's what I keep telling myself -- I caught on late in the season, so I've only seen about two-thirds of last season's episodes, as they were reaired over the summer. So of course I had to buy the DVD, and now I'm trying to convince myself that no really, I can totally watch about seven hours before Tuesday.

Hope you've got your seven hours done!

I'm caught up on the recaps, but I figure I'm only going to have time to actually watch one episode, and I feel like I have to watch it. It's the episode "Three Stories," and I'm choosing that one because the recap was so incredibly hard to follow. I understand the premise, but not how it fits together, and I figure it'll make much more sense in the watching.

Actually, between the original airings and the summer reruns, there were only four eps I hadn't seen, so I did get them done on time!

"Three Stories" is definitely the best choice to watch completely. It's really not like the other episodes, and it can be hard to get a hang of in the beginning (Carmen Electra? Drug addict? They catch the dog? What?). The whole episode is surreal, but amazing -- I think it's one of my favorites.

Did you catch the new episode last night, or are you planning on downloading it to watch later?

I did catch "Three Stories!" It hangs together much better on screen than it did in the recap. It was pretty pyrotechnically dazzling, actually.

And I saw the premiere last night as well! It wasn't as astonisingly good as "Three Stories," but I still liked it an awful lot.
