8x19 'The C Word' [US] **Spoilers**

The Black Oil

Pretty good. Laurie and Leonard carried this one, really. Not that this would be happening if this were not the final season. They gave up writing properly for Wilson ages ago.

The 6 year old was TV manipulation 101, but I had time for her more so than other POTW.

Adolf Hipster

Loved the ending.

The ending was nice. Still can't tell if Wilson will make it or not. They gave the team a full episode without House, could be preparing Chase to take over

That was a great episode! Wilson hasn't really been relevant in a long time. There was some great acting by Leonard! I thoroughly enjoyed it all and it's a while since I could have said that about a House episode.

I've still no idea how it'll end though. Chase is the new House obviously but I think House will off himself, but I'm just not sure how that's going to happen, or even if it will.

Somnus

Enjoyed the episode. Definitely showing that the team can deal without him.

Wilson's comments about House making everyone in his life miserable will stick I think. Just gives him more reason to off himself as his life becomes less fulfilling.

Hoping the quality of the episodes stayes this high until the finale. The last two weeks have been the best of a mostly dull season

squonk

Yes, I thought those comments from Wilson re. House's misery might have stuck. Actually I couldn't decide whether the way his stared after him when they left the elevator before the final scene wasn't hinting at that. I know House is now out of meds thanks to Wilson but they haven't long to go til the finalé. House still seems too happy for a man who might shortly end his existence. Perhaps Wilson hasn't beaten the cancer really. I could see that being a catalyst for House to give up.

Maybe Thirteen will come back to take House up on his offer to euthanize her and the two of them'll go out together?

The Black Oil

What exactly did Wilson say? I've forgotten.

That if he had gotten the cancer he would have deserved it because he's a bad person who brings misery to everyone he meets.

Lord TSC

I've never been so relieved to see an end credit roll. The naming of the next few episodes was obviously designed to make you think something bad was coming. Even when he was laughing at the pictures, I was waiting for a "Ha ha *THUD*" moment.

Really feels like the B-plot was deisgned to show Chase could lead the team if House left. There were a few will shot scenes where it was Chase on his own and the other three standing opposite, looking to him for guidance. And I, for one, would love the show to continue as a Chase spin-off :P

The Black Oil

I dunno. I'm not convinced that House will take his own life. It would be interesting to see Chase as a leader, though.

Is episode 8x22 the very last one?
I was terrified watching this that Wilson would die! I still am actually, I love Wilson.

JohnK

Yeah episode 8x22 is the end of it all
