Dr. Taub, the plastic surgeon. I just don't like him. He was the one I least wanted to make it on the team, followed closely behind by Cutthroat Bitch (who thankfully DID get shitcanned)

According to
TV Guide's Michael Ausiello, House has three episodes left when they come back from the Christmas hiatus.

I call her Cameron House Eyes, because she's looks really close to Cameron only with House's ice-cold piercing baby blues.

Yeah, David Shore's assertions that the cast hadn't been picked yet kind of rings hollow in light of the fact that the final three are exactly who the spoilers said they'd be. Happy about Kuntner and the brunette, was hoping for a surprise with the Taub slot.

Well, Chase has a built in role as House's go-to surgeon who will do the surgeries that the older surgeon from the previous seasons won't. Cameron seems to be filling Wilson's role as moral compass as Wilson has become less of a straight man and more just another inmate in the asylum.

It all depends on their job prospects. I think Foreman's definitely sticking around since he's still on the team helping to solve cases, but Chase and Cameron have seen their roles dramatically reduced. They might work out a system where they record their scenes for episodes in blocks — four episodes at once for instance — and leave them free to pursue other opportunities in the mean time.
