House’s Slot for Fall and Ratings for Finale

by Randi

Well, the House finale did well. How well? The season-finale of House at 16.16 million viewers and a 5.7/14 among adults 18-49. That is an amazing score.

House came in third, below American Idol (when will that show die?) and Grey’s Anatomy when it comes to the top DVR shows.

So what about fall? We’ve got TONS to talk about when it comes to next year, including some questions that people have. To begin with, House will be airing on Tuesday evenings at 8 pm.

Next we’ll get to a few questions. The first comes from Chiodo -

do you know which was the symptom that Gerg saw BEFORE the crash?? he can’t know kidney failure before the crash happened…which was the misterious sympthom??

I believe that the only “symptom” he saw was the pills, which wouldn’t have freaked him out, except for hte bus crash. My assumption is that his brain put together the bus crash and the pills and he knew that Amber was going to be in trouble.

Elvis Orlando FL asks -
I dont understand y wilson is mad at house . they wert having and afair House cant be resposible for the bus axident?

There are many theories about whether Wilson will stay mad at house, but one thing is fairly positive - Wilson is upset at House because he believes that if Amber wouldn’t have rushed out to give House a ride, she wouldn’t be dead.

And finally for today, we’ve got Allie, who noticed a few things about the previous post written by Dr. Scott -

The word amantadine is lowercase, because it is generic. The common brand names are Endantadine, Gen-Amantadine, and Symmetrel. And the term for the seizure is “grand mal” not “gran mal.”

I do not expect a doctor to be able to spell anything, however, because doctors are completely unable to spell. They are also completely unable to pronounce anything correctly, so I suppose we should be grateful he is writing and we are not listening to him.

Allie, medical transcriptionist ;)

Thank you Allie! Please, anyone, let me know whenever something is messed up - we all make mistakes :)

    The change is time slot from 9 to 8 pm makes me nervous. “House M.D.” has always begun with the advisory “Viewer Discretion is advised,” and the show, the stories, and the language have always been that of TV for Grownups.

    Why Fox is putting this show into family viewing time I don’t know; I can only hope that it will not affect the stories the writers choose to tell, or the way Greg House can talk.
