Chase - Again?
You may remember last week when Chase was the object of discussion at TV Guide. The Jeer of the week was all about the fact that Chase hasn’t been seen very much on House in the fourth season. Granted, he’s had some great lines when he’s been on, but there hasn’t been enough of everyone’s favorite Aussie to keep people happy.
Now BuddyTV is letting all of us House fans vote about which character we miss the most! You can go here to vote.
Let me weigh in on this. Do I miss Cameron? Not really - I actually like Hadley better, because even though she’s very like Cameron in that she’s compassionate and the “voice of reason”, she doesn’t have that whole “fawn all over House” thing, nor does she come off as snobbish. I don’t know why, but Cameron just comes off as a huge snob - someone I couldn’t be friends with. I could see myself being friends with Hadley.
Do I miss Foreman? Nah - he’s actually better this season - his dark moods have disappeared and he’s lightened up, which makes me happy. He’s a good compliment to House, especially when House sees Foreman emulating him, whether on purpose or accidentally, and tries to poke fun at it.
Do I miss Chase? YES! GOD yes, and not because he’s sexy as all get-out. Chase always had great lines, and I loved that he would sometimes seem like the “tattle-tale” - you wanted to hate him, but it was so hard to because he was never doing anything maliciously! I did get kind of annoyed with the relationship between him and Cameron (read: I dislike Cameron fairly intensely), so I thought he deserved more. I’d really like to see him with Hadley, actually! I can see that being a great relationship!
So I’ve voted, and so far it looks like the House fans agree with me! As of right now, 71% of the vote is for Chase and 13% for Cameron - poor Foreman only has 1% of the vote…awwww 
Go forth and vote Chase fans!

Hi Randi,
your analysis of the old ducklings is beautifully phrased. I couldn’t have done it better myself
Wrote something like it in some other forum and got lots of boos, though.
Anyway, I’ve already voted for Chase, too. Hope the united voice of us fans is heard.
