House MD + Text Posts Pt. ∞

Cameron and Foreman calling out Chase's horrible, clashy, hectic, borderline chaotic fashion sense 🫶

He makes bold choices. I will give him that.

Thank you for requesting!!

they make me sick

Wilson's sweater vests are so preppy

I love how House MD episodes have these side plots where House is examining these random patients and every time it's some stupid shit, like yeah there's a patient with this extremely complicated case and we need to figure out a diagnosis but we can't ignore the guy with AN MP3 PLAYER UP HIS ASS in Exam Room One

anderperry x hilson parallels

(Dead Poet’s Society - Deleted Scene | House, M.D. - 06x07: Known Unknowns)

Wilson waking up on House's couch, exhausted and sore, having experienced the weirdest fever hallucination that consisted of the rest of the show. House limps in and sees Wilson staring up at him with a confused frown, debating everything he "lived" through.

Wilson asking House if he would die for him which House just answers "Probably" before they continue on with their day as if nothing happened.

My darling boy :[[[

obsessed with how robert sean leonard made wilson a self-conscious crier.

wilson always steels himself around someone else during an intense emotional moment, like seeing him in this state is some horrible transgression and embarrassment.

but it only takes a fragment of attention/acknowledgment to send him over the edge like the flip of a switch. these are blink-and-you-miss-it expressions.

then he hides his face away from the other person & away from the audience to muffle the look and the sound of him crying. i was really struck by this acting choice in 4x16.

and what's extra interesting about these 2 parallels though is the foregrounding. cuddy and wilson share the frame both visually and physically:

she's open to him and welcomes his grief because she can understand and process it. they coalesce after making a hard, emotional decision.

house tries to do this is his own special + a little bit sadistic sort of way, but he can't bridge the physical or visual divide. in every shot of them in the car, only wilson or only house are highlighted in the foreground.

this shot in particular emphasizes the choice house is about to make - to answer with what wilson wants (and needs) to hear, or not?

truly nothing about house md prepares you for wilson. he's fucking insane. he's been divorced three times. he's the only person who can scheme just as well as house. he gives a patient his own liver bc he felt bad for him - a patient who didn't even know wilson's name. btw. he noticed a patient had depression bc he never mentioned his grandkids. he starred in a porno. he dosed house with antidepressants for several weeks. he allowed his boybestie and his gf to share custody of him and didn't even try to stop it. house told him to buy a piece of furniture that represented who he was, and he bought a $4000+ organ for house. he was gonna torpedo his career to talk abt euthanasia bc one of his patients suffered longer than he had to. he let house move into his 1 bed apartment bc his therapist thought it'd be a good idea. this man would do anything for anybody if they let him. he'd fucking quit his job to save a snail off the sidewalk. bro is not normal in the slightest

want more juice but i drinked it all. this is, i cannot stress this enough, utterly fucked
