House season 4 thread
Just a reminder that House returns tonight, and he's auditioning for a new crew to do his bidding.

Re: House season 4 premiere 9/25/07
I'm sort of disappointed. Not with anything the episode did — it was standard House fare with a better than usual twist at the end — but with the marketing for the season premiere. I'm really excited by the "hiring a new team" storyline and the advertising made it seem like we'd be jumping right into it. At the end of the episode, I felt like I was just as far ahead in timeline as I did going into it. It almost felt like an episode between the seasons.
That being said, I'm really looking forward to next week. The preview was hilarious.

Re: House season 4 premiere 9/25/07
I think, though Adam, this episode was one that had to happen. It would have been hard to accept House immediately jumping into hiring. Having an episode where he has to realize that he needs to do it had to happen. And, it was pretty creative how they got it out of the way.
Besides, the moment where he "terrorized" a TiVO is CLASSIC

Man, if House terrorized my "Tivo", it would be ON! Haha.

Absolutely. Like I said, my problem was more with Fox marketing than the episode itself. I thought they were advertising the season premiere. Apparently they were actually advertising the season. Simply a case of misaligned expectations.

Re: House season 4 premiere 9/25/07
Man there would be hell to pay if someone messed with my DVR!
Great opening for the season and the funny thing is I didn't even really miss Chase, Foreman and Cameron all that much. The stuff between House and Wilson was priceless.

Re: House season 4 premiere 9/25/07
I was surprised that the "old team" was still listed in the opening credits - does this mean that they will re-appear occasionally (it does appear so from the trailer for next week).
He really does need a team - it is boring if House only has Cuddy and Wilson to torment. They are too easy - he needs better adversaries. It is a new low, even for House, to pick on a janitor!
The "mass interviews" look promising for next week (next few weeks?).

Re: House season 4 premiere 9/25/07
This was a pretty good episode for me. I agree it was nice to see House have to work alone. I also agree that this episode was necessary for us to believe he needs to hire new people.
As for the mystery this episode, I guessed it as soon as they showed her swollen face. I was just waiting around for them to figure it out.
I loved how House got the Janitor to wear a smock and hang out with him and his patient. I also loved how mortified that Cuddy looked in her office when the mom was finking on House.

I was looking forward to the show changing things up with a new team...but, if what I'm hearing in interviews and such is correct...
