Anyone else blown away by House tonight (SPOILERS)?
What a powerful episode. The concept that you just never know. The guilt that goes along with the suicide. All very powerful.

Was this something that we knew was coming--the actor leaving the show, that is?

2. Me either
Guess it really is a good point for those that are suffering. It has to be horrible to find a friend/co-worker like that.

5. There had been prior rumors....
that something was going to happen to Kal Penn's character but damn, I sure didn't see that coming as it usually is in real life. Very powerful and moving television that episode was. Pretty much should guarantee another emmy.

life that I can recall, unlike other characters. I am gonna miss him. He was so funny. :(

I guess the show is going to remain true to form and turn over characters every so often.

12. He was embarrased by the Harold & Kumar movies?

:hide:


The other reason this episode was so depressing was how old Meat Loaf looked. I don't think it was makeup.

18. Good for him.
During the campaign he spoke at a college in town. After the speech he actually drove students to the polls for early voting.
