One of my favorite television shows is "House." It is extremely well-written, funny, well-cast, and it makes me think. That is, up until last night's episode.
This is the fifth season, and I guess the writers are running out of ideas. They couldn't think of anything to engage the attention of those who appreciate smart entertainment, so they filled it with gratuitous sex. And not just gratuitous sex -- perverted, gratuitous sex.
One of the doctors on House's team has Huntington's Disease. The episode dealt with how she is handling the emotional aspects of the malady. There could have been many creative ways to let the viewer know she was cruising bars to pick up other women for sex without once showing them in the act. However, we were subjected to several quite graphic scenes from the bedroom.
"House" needs some fresh writers to keep it from becoming a House of Ill Repute.
