FAQ

Does anyone know the name of the actress who played the patient with the saint medal on? She was Mary in the church nativity at the end when House went to watch. She looks similar to Tracy Gold. I just want to know who she is. Thanks!

Was intolerable (but tolerasty comes to another stage), 9 October 2009

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

It was the first episode of House MD (my favorite series ever) I badly disgusted. I do not mean main story and performances - it was "House" in it's best, with interesting final diagnosis, particularly. Great performances, blah blah blah - in season 4 the stories got more sophistication, variability and drive. But my impression was just ruined by a side story with (Warning: spoiler below) ..a dirty w**re from whom even House was dumbfounded - from one side, and the last scene - from another. Such blasphemy is a screen writing crime against beliefs of billions. This episode's story seriously lacks any sense of proportion (may Lord forgive you, Pam).
