Well it's said that Olivia Wilde will return in the season finale. Maybe her Huntington's have progressed so far that House will honor what he said and be the one to kill her. And that will make such an impact on House that he leaves for good this time. Or it might be like you say. House dies and Olivia comes back to honor House at his funeral or something.
Shit i can't wait until the finale. But at the same times it makes me sad since it won't be anymore House.
No, it's a reference to the premise of the House... "everyone lies".Originally Posted by Animeniax
That would tie things up nicely, but I'd like to see Cuddy and what's her face the blonde also make an appearance. Though I'd hate it if they had the typical scenario where House dies, and all these people from shows past make appearances to reminisce and eulogize at his funeral.
Also, reruns of House are very fulfilling.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Cuddy won't be making a return, but it's been confirmed that 13, Masters and possibly Kutner will (in some form). Is anyone still watching this? There are only four episodes left and I am psyched with the way they left things off.

I'm still watching the show. I didn't care much for last night's episode...or this entire season, for that matter. I don't know why the writers decided to make house into such an asshole this season.
Might be so we won't miss him as much once he's gone.

I'm not a huge fan of this season myself either, but I am hoping for the best. I quite enjoy House being a complete dick, though. And judging by the next episode's previews, it looked like he would not be portrayed as an asshole.

Ah, good point.
I know he's supposed to be a dick, but I think they've carried it too far into "monster" territory (by "monster" I mean someone completely devoid of any soul). I haven't seen any previews for next week's episode...and sometimes I like that.
What others see as devoid of any soul, I see as completely passionate and emotional. House is merely portrayed in a way that most people would not act or think to act (also, quite obviously overboard for entertainments sake). You see this in his facial expressions, you see it in his odd and sometimes over the top behavior. House cares, but he just does not care the way you do. I'd wager to say that he has a 'soul' (but that's an entirely different subject). I just think he is compelled to release his anger, sadness and disappointment in an unhealthy way. It's like trying to kick a nasty drug habit. You really have to want to change and then make the effort. But you also have to realize that you're going to stumble on the way, have setbacks, etc. House is not at that point in his life yet, as made painfully apparent by the writers. And considering the fact there are only four episodes left, I cannot see him wanting to make that change.
The fact that they would dare to make our anti-hero the kind of person that people cannot relate to or hate or don't understand is brilliant. I get it, anyway. It's also understandable that the audience would want to find some sort of "soul" to connect to on their own terms within House's character, but there is a deviation there and that is why I love this show.

Anyone catch the series finale? It's still sinking in.

I watched it. I actually like how they ended the series.
I'm starting to get used to the fact with how they ended it as well, and as I'm talking to my friends about it, I realize I like it. I think it was perfect.

Just watched the last episode there, really enjoyed it, great ending. Sad to see it's over after 8 seasons though
Ultimate bromance ending, i liked it.
Why wasn't Cuddy in the episode though?
She left the series after season 7 and that whole shpeel between her and House, never came back into season 8. She was in the look-back episode "Swan Song" and made some commentary on the whole thing, which was nice.
