the episode towards the end of last series (second last one i think, with the 3 people with the injured leg, carmen electra and where you find out the reason for his limp) was absolutely awesome television.
the cuts from classroom to hospital room were fucking cool, the story was confusing (in the good way where you get to the end and go 'aahhhhhh i get it now'), it was such a great move away from the routine storytelling in so many other shows, i loved it!
but you're right jml0423... the formula is pretty obvious after a few viewings- the big main problem, and a sideline comedy problem, work work work to get it healed, then suddenly some little thing in the sideline problem triggers a memory of some obscure cure and house saves the day.
i still think the show's great though.
