I’ve finally had the time to re-watch House, M.D.‘s seventh season in its entirety, no breaks or commercials). I tried to understand the arc of the House-Cuddy relationship—where and when it is good for them, and how it falls disastrously apart.

The Iconic Moments of House, M.D.: Season 1, Part I

on June 23, 2011

Nearly every episode of House, M.D. has an “iconic” moment–that great moment you can’t get out of your mind, even six or seven years later. Sometimes they involve Cuddy, Wilson or one of the fellows; often they are caught when House is alone, and sometimes those momentous moments are in the company of  a patient. Continue Reading →

The House, M.D Season Finale “Moving On” – Some Final Thoughts

on June 4, 2011




Posted on Blogcritics.org

I’ve done a lot of thinking about “Moving On,” the House, M.D. Season 7 finale. I decided after watching its original airing, I’d let it rest a week and watch it again without preconceived notions fueled by spoilers and promos, and without the news of Lisa Edelstein’s (Lisa Cuddy) departure too fresh in my mind. It’s sunk in by now that she’s not returning, and in a way, the finale—whatever you may think of it—gives the series an way to make the break permanent if that’s what the parties want. (Although who knows? There’s no reason to believe she’ll stay away forever, and wouldn’t it be spectacular for her to make a surprise guest appearance sometime this season?)

Niles North High School: The Start of it all!

on April 19, 2011

From the Winter/Spring 2011 Illinois High School District 219 Alumni Magazine:

 

Once in a decade, Barbara (Shyette) Barnett (N’72) gets hooked on a television show, to the point of obsession.  And while most audience members would be content to simply sit back on the couch and passively soak it in, Barnett is the type to jump online and start a personal blog about her obsession.

Her personal commentaries, and in-depth critical analyses about the show “House, M.D.” garnered a large readership which she eventually parlayed into a weekly column at blogcritics.com (where she now has co-executive editor duties). After each episode of the show, “House” viewers eagerly read her column “Welcome to the End of The Thought Process: House, M.D.” where Barnett dissects the episode, often with the assistance of “House” writers and executive producers, for a behind-the-scenes look that is full of insight and understanding into the sometimes mystifying actions of the show’s central character, Dr. Gregory House.

on April 18, 2011

First Published on Blogcritics…

So what happens if Universal Media Services (UMS) and Fox were not able to come to terms by midnight last night regarding the status of Fox’s hit series House, M.D.? Variety reported that as of Thursday night, both sides were far apart on terms for a new contract that would bring House back to Fox for an eighth season. It appears that no deal had been reached, by the deadline’s passage late Friday night.

New Interview at Cafe of Dreams

on April 11, 2011

Interview: Barbara Barnett, Author of Chasing Zebras

An excerpt…

If you could meet, in person, any of your characters, who would it be and why?
They aren’t my characters, since I’m not a writer on the show, but I would probably enjoy meeting Dr. House himself. I’d be completely intimidated by him, and would probably choose to talk music and books with him rather than medicine, where I’d be on sturdier ground.

If you could fictionalize yourself and put yourself in any situation, how would it play out? Could you give us a scene/scenario of such an occurrence?

When I write fiction, my protagonists (who in one way or another always reflect me) seem to always be fighting the system: hypocrisy, corruption and just plain apathy. Fictionalized, I see myself as smart and resourceful with a keen sense of justice but little respect for bureaucracy or hypocrisy. My fictional attempts seem to always be set in some sort of Kafka-esque dystopia sometime in a dire near future.
